Help me understand: isn’t solar a dead end? The sun doesn’t always shine, we need to 10,000x our battery capacity to run the world on solar, and we’d be strip mining the Earth for those battery metals. 

Nuclear is the only way. Obsession with solar only furthers oil (see Germany).

Batteries have come a long way. See sodium ion batteries. You can also make batteries by pumping water up and letting it drop when you need energy. Nuclear is too late, it takes to long to build..
