Coal and natural gas as a source of US electricity declined by ~5% while Trump was President, while Solar+Wind increased 123%
At the current pace, solar+wind will over take coal + natural gas as a source of electricity in 25 years (before 2050).
Why this matters?
At the current pace, solar+wind will over take coal + natural gas as a source of electricity in 25 years (before 2050).
Why this matters?
- It sucks, but global warming is real and we need to cut greenhouse gas emissions
- Wind+Solar are NOT subject to wild price swings that you see with natural gas
- Wind/Solar are a new source of income for farmers
- Wind/Solar will create more jobs than coal + natural gas
