Of course, climate change is how it all started.
That is what drove the initial rollout in clean energy.
But now, especially with what's happening globally, with all the wars going on and the geopolitical situation being what it is, India recognizes that we import all of our fossil fuels, or at least 85% of it.
And that's a dependency that is very unhealthy for us.
And so therefore, energy security is something that we have to work on with a high degree of urgency.
And the solution for that is to move as quickly as possible into clean energy, whether it is using renewable energy to generate electricity, whether it is to use renewable energy to power things like data centers or create green fuels like green hydrogen and green ammonia.
All of those are areas that now the government is very strongly now pushing forward.
No, of course it does.
It worries me because ultimately, I do believe that climate change is one of the most central issues facing humanity.
And if we don't act with the absolute highest sense of urgency on it, then it's going to lead to two degrees plus temperature change, which is going to be really, really damaging to
The world as a whole, it will lead to all sorts of consequences on food security, migration, you know, droughts, etc.
So the consequences are going to be quite dire.
But, you know, eventually I feel that technology, which is driving climate change efforts, will triumph over drilling things out of the ground.
So I think longer term, it's going to eventually be a situation where the energy transition wins out.
You know, I think that clean energy ultimately is, it's a little bit more democratic than large single location power generating stations.
Because clean energy can be put up on one's roof through government subsidies.
It can become very cheap.
The farmer can use, you know, pumps getting powered by solar power.
So all of that is going to bring renewable energy much closer to the common man.
That's an interesting question.
