Think about cost and scale the already existing power infrastructure of oil fields, coal mines, pipelines, refineries, supertankers, gas stations and power plants.
That's mind-boggling too, you just don't think about it because it's already there.
Yes, that's right. The project being proposed is merely several orders of magnitude larger than all existing infrastructure created up to now.
That's exactly my point; I do grasp how much that took, and then to propose that we could solve all our problems by just doing a thousand times more work (or more) is just silly.

Any numbers to back up that claim?
