Renewables and battery storage aren't the answer. Your placing everything in 15 years. Expensive. Alot of toxic E-waste. Yes you are better have nuclear. cheaper and far less waste. You can't expect Greens to know everything! How could they know about slave labor in China and child labor in the Congo. They're in the business of moralizing, not fact finding.
