Germany will need to plug into a Sahara scheme.
Germany already has enough energy potential. As I have said before. Their average use is 57GW peak use is about 100GW. There is 54GW of Solar and 62GW of wind. So why would Germany need Sahara?

Don't know; probably because they are trying to follow the dictates of mainstream market economics.
or the loony left.

Even if cancer proves to be unrelated, other negative health effects of filthy fossil pollution (apart from CO2 "pollution") are undeniable (except to you, of course)
Seeing as you have CO2(pollution) you don't agree it is a pollutant? Well done you.
At what concentrations are these particles causing "negative health effects"?

But the science is overwhemlingly on the side of the global political consensus.
Do you have facts to back that up? EG what are the total number of climate scientists in the world? What is the number that believes overwhelingly?
I know the IPCC says that all their scientists are "climate scientists'
TM; but it appears not.
"n an April 25, 2022 Chemical and Engineering News article, Holly Jean Buck, a “development sociologist,” expresses some peculiar views about fossil fuels that go beyond climate change. It is surprising to find them purveyed in a journal not of sociology or politics but of chemistry and engineering.
For starters, Buck maintains, “achieving net-zero emissions won’t ensure that the planet is buffered from the environmental and health impacts of fossil fuel extraction and use.”
Buck is a professor of environment and sustainability at the University at Buffalo. Her Ph.D. is in development sociology. She is also a contributing author to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which is a good reminder that, contrary to popular perception, not only climate scientists but also plenty of social scientists contribute to the IPCC’s “scientific” reports.
