The dissemination and distribution of solar power might seem minor today, but if you model solar growth as roughly exponential - as is typical for new developments - then solar could become the dominant power source in 2036 - which is not far into the future, even on human timescales. I ask you to keep your head up high, and believe into the future, because I care about you, and I don’t want you to suffer from depression and anxiety.

Extrapolating the trend line to an exponential curve doesn’t look like a good fit at all. The extrapolation is easily overestimated by at least one order of magnitude, maybe two.
True, but it seems a magnitude is just around 8 years, so eventually we’ll get there.
