  The Shocking Truth about...

  Zoey Fraisers

  For decades, renewable energy has been marketed as the ultimate solution to climate change, pollution, and our reliance on fossil fuels. Solar panels and wind turbines fill the landscape, promising a cleaner, greener future. Governments, corporations, and activists push the narrative that renewables are not only necessary but inevitable. Billions of dollars have been poured into the transition, with incentives and subsidies encouraging the mass adoption of so-called “clean energy.” On the surface, this movement appears to be a global success.  
    
  Yet, beneath the optimistic rhetoric lies a far more complex and inconvenient truth. While renewable energy offers undeniable benefits, it also comes with significant drawbacks that are rarely discussed. Solar farms consume vast amounts of land, wind turbines disrupt ecosystems, and hydropower alters entire river systems, sometimes with devastating consequences. The environmental cost of producing, maintaining, and disposing of renewable energy infrastructure is frequently overlooked. Furthermore, the idea that renewables alone can sustain modern society is built on a foundation of wishful thinking rather than reality.  
    
  One of the biggest challenges facing renewables is reliability. The sun doesn’t always shine, and the wind doesn’t always blow. Unlike fossil fuels, which provide a constant and controllable energy supply, renewables fluctuate unpredictably. This intermittency creates enormous challenges for electrical grids, often requiring backup from coal, natural gas, or nuclear power. Energy storage technology, such as batteries, is still far from capable of bridging this gap at the scale necessary. The result is an energy system that is fragile, expensive, and, in some cases, even more dependent on fossil fuels than before.
