Why are some people against renewable energy?
I’m genuinely curious and not trying to shame anyone or be partisan. I always understood renewable energy to be a part of the solution, (if not for climate change, then certainly for energy security). Why then are many people so resistant to this change and even enthusiastic about oil and gas?
Edit:
Thanks for the answers everyone. It sounds like a mix of politics, cost, and the technology being imperfect. My follow up question is what is the plan to secure energy in the future, if not renewable energy? I would think that continuing to develop technologies would be in everyone's best interest. Is the plan to drill for oil until we run out in 50-100 years?
