What kind of argument is this lol

Until renewables hit continually provide 100% of your needs...everyone should care

Ping me on lemmy when we're done burning fossil fuels for good and I'll buy a 1970s fridge the same day

Even once they do we should care. Devices that run continuously consume a lot of energy over their lifetime. Keep your 70s drill, but a freezer should, even with cheap renewable energy, pay for itself after a year or two.
