    I am quite amazed that no one speaks of nuclear power production that has been with us for decades. If coal fired power generation were gradually replaced with nuclear power beginning with Kyoto, the planet would be in better shape with regards to clean energy. I don't see any significant progress in lower greenhouse emissions if nuclear power remains off the table.

      Building NPPs is too slow and eats up too much money, which would be better invested in renewables (and energy storage), which are more resilient because they are more abundant, diversified, decentralized, and provide many more jobs. So there are many advantages to choosing renewables over nuclear, as reflected in the shift of investment around the world. Just because communist, totalitarian China is investing significantly in nuclear power generation, the rest of the world should not do the same.

      We, Indians can't afford to cut off our CO2 emissions. The next 20-30 years is very crucial for our country's growth. We can't comprise our economic growth for the sake of a greener earth. Unlike developed nations, neither do we have the time nor the money to invest in renewable sources of energy. Our per capita emission is still 1/8 th that of the US. Why do we (a poor nation) need to bear the consequences for the historical CO2 emissions of the US and its allies? Needless to say, we're still trying our best with our limited resources. For example, funds are being diverted from investing in coal plants to building solar parks. And there's also a growing EV market for two-wheeler vehicles in India.

    But who says CO2 is the reason for these changes? If it is then I would like someone to explain to me why changes are observed on other planets of the solar system and on the Sun itself. Glaciers are melting. This is a fact but not because of the air temperature, but under the influence of magma coming from the interior of the planet. Glaciers are melting from below? How does CO2 affect this? Yes the temperature is rising but if the processes in the oceans are known, the rise in CO2 is a consequence and not a cause of the rise in temperature. What you are talking about is nonsense that will ultimately cost us our lives. The IPCC and governments are dealing with CO2 which is not the cause of climate change. And that shows what a corrupt society we live in!
