Large corporations and the current US government are spreading false information to attack renewable energy, electric vehicles, and progressive values, claiming they are costly and unreliable. However, recent data shows that renewables are cheaper, with the shift saving $467 billion in global fuel expenditures in 2024. The cost of solar and wind is zero, making them a more sustainable and cost-effective option compared to fossil fuels. Additionally, new sodium-ion batteries for energy storage are reducing costs, with the US projected to add 24 gigawatts of utility scale storage in 2026. Renewable energy is surpassing coal as the world's largest electricity source, creating more jobs and having a smaller environmental footprint. Despite disinformation, a calm and rational presentation of facts is key to changing minds and driving the transition to clean energy.
