Can't we just burn plastics? Most of them are hydrocarbons similar to gasoline.
Granted, it's not 100% clean, but the amount of CO2 created by burning all the plastics in the car can't be much worse than a couple tanks worth of gas.
Also, destroying the landscape to "save the climate" still ends with destroying the environment. Wind and solar aren't energy dense enough to justify the damage they cause.
What species already inhabits that land or space that will be re-purposed?
What happens to old solar panels and wind turbines after they reach their end of life?
What happens to the places that supply the raw materials for solar panels?
How many batteries are needed to make up for solar and wind variance? What is required to make those batteries? How much land do they require?
Will batteries, solar panels, and wind turbines all continue to work at the same level as other power sources in times of extreme weather?
In the case of Norway, apparently they produce ~90% of their electricity from hydro. Good strategy if there’s lots of spots in your country for hydro electric dams, pretty difficult to replicate if not.
