Pres. Obama is wrong about solar

President Obama from 2016 State of the Union:
“Look, if anybody still wants to dispute the science around climate change, have at it. You will be pretty lonely, because you’ll be debating our military, most of America’s business leaders, the majority of the American people, almost the entire scientific community, and 200 nations around the world who agree it’s a problem and intend to solve it.” 
He’s wrong and I will stand lonely against this nonsense. The threat of man made climate change is a hoax. Solve what? There is no identification of a problem and no proposed solution. Carbon dioxide? It’s plant food, not a pollutant. This is nothing but government control over people’s actions. Windmills and solar panels cannot power the world. They work by consolidating diffuse energy and converting it into a usable form: electricity. Clever, but it is inherently inefficient. Luckily there isn’t that that much energy in the wind and sunlight or we would blow over and get sunburned all the time. Great for powering a remote farm or charging a cell phone while camping but it will never keep up with your AC unit. The nice thing about gas, coal and nuclear power is that the energy is already concentrated. It requires an internal combustion engine to slowly release the energy and convert the power into motion. My suburban will go 400 miles on a tank of gas. New energy scams can’t beat that. We don’t need the government involved in decisions about how we produce and use energy. Go away.
