原発も縮小と言う主張は良かった
原発の冷却水も海水温の上昇を助長する一因だと思っていたので
問題は不安定な電力をどのように安定化させるか、でしょうか？
素人考えでは水素に変えて保存しておくのが良いような気がします

再生エネルギー化の流れを止めることはできないですし、また、エネルギー輸入国や、多くの経済的発展国にとって利益にもなります。この流れに逆らうのは国際的孤立をまねくだけです。米国は現在石油輸出国ですし、既存の化石燃料産業を守りたいのでしょうが、これに固執すれば国際競争力の低下はさけられないでしょう。しかし、脱化石燃料化は、中東をはじめ、ロシア、ベネズエラ、アルジェリア、ナイジェリアなど、化石燃料依存国家にとっては、国家存亡の危機です。再生エネルギーの低価格化、普及が極めて速いので、世界がこれついて行けていません。つまり、化石燃料から再生エネルギーへの転換はさけられないし、資源のない日本にとてはプラスであり、既存の原子力や石油や天然ガス産業にこだわるべきではないが、これは世界のパワーバランスの大転換を意味しているので、日本がどのような立場をとるにしても、バラ色の未来がまっているわけではないこと考えるべきでしょう。
