@cwebber this so much
I've been looking at this report that came out the other way, and the section 2.2.2 about batteries alone just makes me feel like the world isn't horribly broken for once

Yes, but the whole format, while technically containing truths, it practically made to sell lies.
Myth: We don't put radium in toothpaste anymore, because it is radioactive.
Fact: Bananas are also radioactive, but you don't see warning labels on them.

@cwebber It's a great story and gives me hope too, esp. the surprising speed at which solar has developed the last decade. One caveat: Source of electricity generation! The cheapest source of energy is still fossil if you take fuels into account, a major part of our total energy consumption.
