The Netherlands generates way more solar power than Canada. Here's how they do it - Global investment in solar power now tops all other energy generation technologies combined, says IEA

  • i agree. as long as industry makes money the train keeps moving. But Toyota doesn't bet on EVs. Sparks my interest.

    Regarding concens. i wonder when the "green train" wakes up to the mounting recycling problem of

    • lithium EV batteries,
    • windturbine blades
    • solar panels

  • right.. what part?

  • in NL, the sun rarely shines and especially doesn't during the night. and since there's no proper way to store huge amounts of electrical power during the day,

    • charging overnight isn't an option
    • we're left to feeding the exess power onto the grid

  • Because they're a non-democratic party, and they've cooked up a big plan which is being rolled out in all connected countries.

    in NL, the government has committed already in 2015 https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/onderwerpen/ontwikkelingssamenwerking/internationale-afspraken-ontwikkelingssamenwerking While there's no money in SDG's there's an enormous drive to make it progress.. Wonder who is paying for all that. Here are some websites showing Dutch government initiatives;

    The SDG plans seem benevolent, but the problem i have with it; while the outcome sounds nice, it doesn't say 'how' they want to arrive there.

    i've seen the Arup/c40 publication regarding going for 'sustainability'. e.g. it calls a target of 0 Kg meat, and 0 Kg dairy per person per year, an Ambitious target for 2030?! Here you can download their PDF https://www.arup.com/perspectives/publications/research/section/the-future-of-urban-consumption-in-a-1-5c-world

    I think it's an interesting read for realizing how extreme groups are willing to think, and not even being ashamed for it, or being called out on it

  • True. but the govt is screwing over the people by creating these problems. This is not the only thing consistenly going the wrong way.

    To me, it's like most people in Govt have no clue that the U.N.'s S.D.G.'s are a recipy for trouble.

  • but.. our government

    • didn't/doesn't address housing shortage.
    • didn't/doesn't address inflation.
    • increases taxation as a means to get more income flow to the government
    • spends crazy(milions and bilions) on S.D.G ideals
    • makes it impossible for farmers to meet (Co2 etc)regulations
      • and government buys them out..
      • and Schiphol etc buying that land for extra CO2 credit.
    • has crazy 'sustainability' demains, which makes international production business move elsewhere
    • increasing poverty. People requiring food-bank support is increasing, but because of increasingly harsh business environment the food-bank actually obtains less from industrie.
    • many small/medium businesses are going bust because they can't repay the corona-loan. (which many have warned is a slow death trap)

  • Actually,

    • energy grid in NL is becoming unstable because of solar energy :/ (e.g. by houses supplying it onto the network)
    • and our cable network is not capable of handling the EV cars recharge requirements.
    • and houses to be built not able to get an electric connection, because of electrical infrastructure capacity-problems.

    So, don't bet on solar too soon

    Jordan Peterson learns that freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences

  • because he’s otherwise a decent person. I shudder to think what other content he might expose himself to over time and what that will mean for our relationship.

    Maybe he's wondering what content you're exposing yourself to, as well? i think it's time you guys talk, but on one condition; To not be easily offended. i'm wondering; would he feel offend by you, or you feel offended by him?

  • Thanks for clearing that up💯. it indeed is not Jordan's character to say something negative about the worth of any person. i can only immagine that he would say something like that when he's deliberately portraying the perspective of an evil mentality.

    i don't get why you get 19 downvotes though..
