What people consistently fail to realize is that manufacturing renewables is not energy free.
Last I checked a solar panel takes about 5-6 years to recoup it’s energy loss, so to make more of them now means more fossil fuel energy now.
You can’t save a year’s salary at McDonald’s and then retire off the interest.
