I read these titles and always facepalm and laugh.
If you remove researchers who have differing opinions *of course* you’ll get the claims you want. Particularly, when those researchers are funded in a way that incentivizes particular claims.
Now to these easily debunked claims, look at energy production vs capacity vs consumption in Germany:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_in_Germany
Even though renewable energy capacity is 60% renewables, energy consumption is only 10% renewables.
This is every country. Because renewable energy comes in bursts. This also doesn’t include the fact it costs a ton of fossil fuel energy to produce a lot of these renewable systems (solar, wind turbines, batteries).
I’m not saying this isn’t a “doable” goal, but only way you might get there by 2050 is destroying quality of life, population reduction and investing all resources into this space. You’d also have to force countries like China and Russia with force… so good luck.
