The poorest and warmer countries will be the most damaged ones by global warming.
That's why richer colder countries says global warming don't exist.

One day in Germany, Soldiers were talking about where they wanted to be stationed. Someone said Hawaii. Somebody else remembered a third Soldier had been stationed there, so they asked him how it was.
"The dirt is red!"

AgDay new was saying that as of April 27 this year half to 2/3 of the wheat crop in Texas, kansas, Oklahoma is in poor to very poor conditions due to unusual cold, late freezing and drought.
It's probably going to be at least the worse wheat crop since 1986. And to expect to see freezes into June in the northern half of the US.
All I know is the dairy farmers here are hording cow feed. Early spring they normally aren't stocking up on tons of extra cow feed this time of year. Farmers are worried about this.

the specific causes of why solar and wind make electricity expensive, most if not all stem from their underlying physical and (thus environmental constraint), which is the limited, diffuse, dilute, and unreliable nature of renewable fuels..

I do really like their renewable nature, though. It's a big plus.

Rebuildable.
.
It remains to be seen if any aspects of mining, concrete, refining, manufacturing, installation, or even rebuilding what is there every 15 years of giant wind turbines can be accomplished after liquid fuel starts to become remote in 30 years.
