The only way it could warm is through the carbon emissions from its construction, but also that is negligible. An otherwise wise professor once made a mistake when he thought that all energy production, including renewable…

They are up to 10x cheaper than nuclear power and much cheaper than fossil fuels. Weather-based electricity is an endless and completely circular circular economy. Fossil and nuclear power are linear…
