    Ah yes… Conservation of Energy… which means… that we never lose energy…

      I think he’s trying to say, “energy cannot be created or destroyed, therefore all energy is renewable”. Implying gas and oil are just as “renewable” as wind and solar.

      Conservatives back gas and oil purely for personal financial incentives, and like to project that renewable energy is also only for financial incentives and not the good of the planet.

      Which should only work on high school kids. In 9th grade I didn’t understand why air conditioners required power instead of generating power. Heat is energy, right? Why don’t they just take the energy out of the air and convert it to electrical energy?

      I’m very confident Ben knows how the second law of thermodynamics works, and he’s taking advantage of a populace that was put through a failed education system.
