I already mentioned maintenance.

You people act like coal plants don't have teams of maintenance engineers onsite 24/7.

I'm not acting like anything. I am fully aware of the requirements of fossil fuels. I'm mentioning all the requirements for "renewables" because there people typically act as if there are zero costs (and pollution and maintenance) related with it.

I'm not pro fossil fuels, not at all. Don't get me wrong. I'm simply saying that were Ina SERIOUSLY fucked situation that simply won't be solved within our generation, if ever at all. We're at a cliff and a small group just keeps partying while shuffling closer and the rest of the world gleefully shuffles right after them. A few renewables are not going to fix this
