Study finds 100% renewables would pay off within 6 years

“New research from Stanford University researcher Mark Jacobson outlines how 145 countries could meet 100% of their business-as-usual energy needs with wind, water, solar and energy storage. The study finds that in all the countries considered, lower-cost energy and other benefits mean the required investment for transition is paid off within six years. The study also estimates that worldwide, such a transition would create 28 million more jobs than it lost.”

Yes....but u gotta look at this practically:

• A baby born when we went 100% renewables would be past the 1st Grade before we'd see any payoff - all the way thru kindergarten.

• And this is like as long as Jordan Bohannon's Iowa Basketball career. Who's got THAT kinda time here?

• This is ALMOST as far back as Nebraska football's last winning season...
