Should do that, take out what they can and use the rest as a fuel - instead or fresh oil or gas.

And why don't you look at the source of said power. Mostly hydro, stop just reading the title and thinking it's all rainbows and sugarplums

It isn't, but Norway, Sweden, Canada have long rivers and effectively stack them together.

 

We cannot and if you look worldwide there's a very big movement to remove dams and weirs entirely, Europe removed a few thousand last year alone.

 

If you want to make yourself depressed look at Ireland data centres and the power cable they want to lay to Iceland.

I was merely trying to share a bit of positivity. Maybe I should have considered the tread title more fully first. 🤔

Maybe, just don't think it's anywhere as accurate as they're trying to claim.

 

Look at us, look at us, we have all this water.

Whilst at the same time glossing over Canada oil sands, Norway gas, rainforests etc.
