Greens keep ignoring energy density and therefore land use to make the case for a "greener" 100% wind/solar/hydro grid

Yeah, all the nuclear projects they announce go hugely over budget and often get cancelled because the money pulls out because it's impossible to be profitable while all the wind farms and solar installations are doing far better than projected and the cost of construction is constantly falling.
No one actually interested in power generation is looking at what's happening and coming to the conclusion that these oil company shills are trying to push, it just makes no sense.
