Wind and solar can't get us free of CO2 yet.
Wind and solar overtake fossil fuels in EU power supply
This is the problem, this idea of 100% carbon free or "whelp, might as well give up and burn coal".
We will always need buffers to grids of solar and wind power, they point is we are reducing outputs significantly, aiming for a range the planet can deal with.
Funny for an ecologist to admit that you don't care about climate change if nuclear power is can be ended.
For your interest, it's at least 20 years that renewables do absolutely nothing for CO2 emissions. Meanwhile nuclear power is carbon free since the 70's.
