This ‘green’ energy a losing battle

Do those who claim to be global warming activists really believe that carbons are the cause of global warming? Why do they behave like denialists when it comes to finding alternative solutions to the problem than those in existence at present? They seem to be defenders of the status quo and adopt a head-in-the-sand approach and ignore all attempts to find other solutions.

They will defend the monopoly of electric cars, wind farms and solar farms as the be all and end all to save the planet. These efforts are helping to slow down the rate of carbon emissions but are still losing the battle as the carbon emissions are still gaining but at a slower rate.

There are more practical and more efficient solutions available that could and would eventually win the war. The solution lies in addressing the problem more aggressively in the transportation and energy sectors as the present efforts are unable to do.

I will not be surprised if the global warming activists will just ignore this letter as would the denialists and not respond.

Johannesburg.
