There is one huge, overlooked problem with the new mantra of “build back better” — the idea of building out a whole new renewable energy infrastructure. And that problem is the words “build” and “infrastructure.” Where will the huge amount of net energy to do all this building come from? Fossil fuels, of course. You cannot build a windmill with wind energy, nor a solar array with solar energy!
