What?! But I was told renewables were going to cost us jobs!

Renewables’ EROEI will be sufficiently low compared to now such that the need for human powered manual labour will vastly increase. More jobs!

(Note, the EROEI on non renewables will be effectively zero, as they will be gone, so there isn’t a choice)
