Namely, do you think it has a future in the wave of next gen clean energy sources? If you support it, do you think it will always be viable or that it should only be a temporary measure to get us off fossil fuels while our renewable infrastructure grows?

There are reasonable solutions, even if we can’t have a “perfect” solution.
But what specifically are you saying is sensational in the material I linked. We have deep systemic problems, our biosphere is collapsing, and we don’t have reasonable solutions right now. These are all just facts.

Some of it is research, but a lot of it is documented events that are currently happening. Meanwhile, the research provides us with the best knowledge of what we can expect going forward. To our best knowledge we’re expecting drastic climate change within a decade.
Whether we can do anything about that or how we might do it is a separate discussion. Currently, there is no plan to deal with this in a meaningful way. Fusion reactors don’t exist right now, and there’s no evidence to suggest we’ll have fusion reactors within the time frame we need. Carbon capture is not sufficient, and we’re not expecting any major jumps in solar efficiency either. Technology isn’t magically going to solve this problem in the next decade.
The reality of the situation is that we need to abandon growth and consumerism, and that simply can’t happen in a world of capitalism. You can call it doom and gloom, but that’s the reality we’re in. Sticking your head in the sand isn’t going to change anything.

I asked you what was sensational about the links, and you went off on a tangent talking about advancements in technology. I explained why these advancements aren’t really meaningful or promising and now you’re saying I’m trolling you. JFC indeed. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
