    Well that I didn’t expect. Instead, I expect our capitalists to continue with coal as long as our government’s nepotists keep funding their cronies.

      The economic math for renewables has been in their favor for awhile. Even as oil fights it they invested in it. Much of their fighting is now with individual installations. Stopping net metering or making it unfavorable and styming balcony solar and poo pooing solar coverage on things like parking lots. They plan to dominate large solar and wind installations.

    Texas is only a “clean-energy leader” if they also reduce their fossil energy production by the same rate as they increase renewables. Don’t anyone try to mislead us on this.

    … Did I just fall through a wormhole and found myself in a parallel universe where red states are the good ones?

    Happy to report that in all parallel universes the US is still the evil power, together with Israel, North Korea, Iran, China, and Russia
