I watched a documentary on Amazon. The name is “The Planet of The Humans” [the name might be a little off] It was about Solar power, Wind power, and Biomass. All of them are pretty much bogus. Solar power and wind power are ‘iffy’. Biomass works but to get enough power, they literally cut down forests to provide the energy. Watch it if you can. It may be a bit exaggerated but not by much. “Technology can’t save us. Technology is what made the problem in the first place.”
No, all the alternative sources are not the problem. The world has more than enough capability to build enough alternative sources to supply enough power. The big problem is we don’t yet have a battery system that is capable and inexpensive enough to be able to balance the loads when one of the alt. supplies are not powering the system. Give it a bit of time. Systems have advanced more in the last 20 years than they have in the last 1000. We will get there. It just won’t be as fast as many people want it to be. It still has to be economically worthwhile to do or companies and rich people won’t do it. I figure about 75-100 years and we will be there.

If we continue it will be too hot to survive here in 100 years or less.
