Disposal of renewables has always been an issue. We can't dispose of solar panels with ease, and the same goes with windmills due to their sheer size. They have associated health risks too. Solar panels have heavy metals that can be a pollutant to groundwater that affects the plant. We can have a higher risk for brain impairment in a child due to cadmium in the panels, which is carcinogenic. If everyone adapts to renewable, we can expect about 80 million tons of solar waste by 2050.
Dear @juecoree, Currently, S. Korea is also suffering from environmental pollution and cost caused by the disposal of solar panels.
So, they are building nuclear power plants again.
However, it does not yet have the capacity to build a fusion power plant.
For now, I think, as you argue, a fusion power plant is the most ideal future! 😄
I think everyone is suffering from environmental pollution whether we live in a third world or developed countries. We have the same problem. I think nuclear seems a better option to meet energy demand and curve carbon emission, but trading off on radioactive waste. !PIZZA
