Who is proposing that wind energy alone needs to entirely replace fossil fuel usage? Also, when are those 4 weeks of the year when all wind everywhere stops? Can’t take anything in that article seriously when they’re making such hyperbolic statements. I guess if we can’t immediately and completely switch from fossil fuel to renewables without any changes to our current lifestyle we are better off continuing with the status quo until we slowly cook the planet.

Collapse
!collapse@lemm.ee
This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.
Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.
