Doesn't work how?

If it's monetary gain then thats a political not one in residence.

If not producing enough power then that's a people's problem. Being greedy taking more than what they need and for not enough resources on building efficiency.

Overall solar works. It's just gate-kept tightly by evil organisations who are scared to lose their dirty cash for such technology to evolve.

Because apartments don’t have roof tops.

And why would a landlord sink $10,000+ in to a property for no return.

Roof top solar only works for the user who has the roof top solar.

For everyone else it makes electricity more expensive.

Happy to be proven wrong. Show me a majority of places with high roof top solar penetration where per kWh electricity rates have fallen.

And who cares about carbon emissions, China and India have that covered - I don’t need to worry about producing more or less CO2 emissions because it won’t make any difference whether or not I believe in catastrophic climate change.

That's an interesting point, but a much less costly option is to change policies to incentivize landlords, not build multi-billion dollar nuclear plants.

That doesn't change the US's contribution, the ability of the US to form successful international agreements, and the influence of the US pulling its weight as a much wealthier country than China or India.

Blaming your neighbor for your bad behavior - I sell drugs off my porch because my neighbor does - doesn't make you less criminal. Also unacceptable, from moral and practical perspectives, is saying 'there's nothing I can do'. It's time we stop letting that pass.
