Home financing ever possible? Probably not!

100% sure

Aren't you always saying here that you are an engineer?

Interesting point of view. So the Saudis are to blame because they extract the oil, not us because we burn it. That would also mean that Wüsthof is to blame if someone gets stabbed with one of their kitchen knives. And no... the dinos are not dead because CO2 decreased, but because a global killer struck Yucatan about 66 million years ago.

But your "global killer" led to a sort of "nuclear winter," temperature drop, decline in plant growth and CO2, as well as dinosaur extinction as a consequence. With today's plant growth, herds of 30-ton dinosaurs, which according to fossils once existed, certainly could not survive. They would have grazed the earth bare and then starved. And also no 12-ton predators that possibly fed on the 30-tonners. (What kind of CO2 emissions would a 12-ton T. rex have had when accelerating?)

(Disclaimer: It is of course true that a completely ice-free, warmer world after the adaptation phase is richer in species and "more productive." But that practically does not interest the corpses that pave the way there.)

The transition to a colder world would lead to extreme struggles for distribution, no question. But why should corpses "pave" the way to a warmer world, in which there is more to share? I do not understand that.

How many billions do the aftermaths of the reactor accidents in Chernobyl and Fukushima cost annually again? How many more years will these costs continue to arise?

But hey: fortunately, it didn't happen in Germany, but far away abroad...

Therefore, nuclear energy is neither clean nor safe. With the money wasted here, you could really advance the expansion of renewables and would have a benefit for decades to come.

Of course, nuclear energy is safe if corruption and greed are prevented.

Well, that was more a problem between cold-blooded and warm-blooded animals. Because mammals obviously survived that.

But I think you should rather go to sleep so that you get to school on time tomorrow. You learn all that there, so I don’t have to explain it to you?

Literal interpretation. I would also say that wind energy is 100% safe, even though the blades often break and can kill you. I just wanted to make it clear that a worst-case disaster like Fukushima is ruled out with proper technology and procedure.

Quibbling over words. I would also say that wind energy is 100% safe, even though the blades often break and can hit you. I just wanted to make clear that a worst-case scenario like Fukushima is excluded with proper technology and procedure.

Someone who generally rules out a worst-case scenario cannot be an engineer. Especially since no worst-case scenario actually occurred in Fukushima, because there was no meltdown reaching the groundwater and thus no final explosion of the reactors.

Besides that. If we all understood that the term is "quibbling over words"... from "to pick"... then a lot would be gained.
