And also why can't we simultaneously revolutionize extraction industries to be lower-impact, better for workers, etc. we already did this in the coal era and can use the knowledge and infrastructure from nonrenewables to apply better practices for renewable materials?? We're not starting at zero!
"but what about those minerals we need for batteries and solar panels?" those less capable of thinking a few steps ahead will shout.
You see folks, using those other technologies doesn't require that you SET FIRE to the resource you've extracted. Those resources are still there to be recycled.

Why politicians promote affordability ignoring the economic drivers of inflation …
Unfortunately, most politicians are economically managerially illiterate getting elected on intentions versus presenting to voter's actual inflation reality in play

Investment in nonrenewables, mining without renewable infrastructure & Canadian research is irresponsible. China’s sodium-ion sand batteries are changing the game. In Finland innovation demonstrates new methods that could be used in remote communities today. #Budget #CdnPoli

there are far too many nonrenewables (remember where they come from?? not from a stork) and toxics embedded in all computer hardware for it to be a simple "buy and landfill" process
the hardware should be priced with externalities considered, and the lifecycle should be heavily regulated

I don't think people realise the extent of the waste here. All the nonrenewables going into these things, and the water, energy, semiconductors, building materials, hundreds of metals and minerals mostly extracted under genocidal conditions: We can't afford to WASTE any of it, and yet here we are.

Yeah I think they fully just made up that metric. I've never seen anyone else use that, they invented it so they could have something that solar & wind were worse at than nonrenewables.

I’m sure the notoriously infinite resource of Petrified Dinosaur Shit will save us from the fact that electricity is becoming harder to produce thanks to an over-reliance on nonrenewables so as to enrich like three dudes whose median age is 235

Also how they’re never compared to the aesthetics of nonrenewables. A coal plant is an ugly, ugly eyesore!

Bad short term news for clean energy companies, but it actually strengthens their long term outlook. Trump's strategy will hasten the exhaustion of nonrenewables and their inevitable (with scarcity) price increases. The loser is the environment.

Boom fades for US clean energy as Trump guts subsidies
The policy shift risks $373 billion in clean energy investments as the White House directs agencies to tighten the rules on who can claim the incentives that remain.

80% of Ontarians want to cancel the GE-Hitachi nuclear deal.
70% prefer wind and solar over U.S. reactors.
88% support electricity ties with Quebec & Manitoba.
72% back zero-interest heat pump financing.
Ontarians want renewables, not new nuclear.

Much of the EU and UK made a brave but difficult choice to establish control over their energy future by weening themselves off the Putin-Russian nonrenewables teat. Their economic future is brighter because of this tack. The planning has clearly shifted away from nonrenewables and Putin.
