reminder that US co2 emissions have plummeted almost entirely due to replacement of coal with natural gas plants which are phenomenally efficient and inexpensive
-
Yes, but they would have plummeted far more if we had replaced capacity with new nuclear plants. A grid that involves mostly nuclear with natural gas for surge capacity is the best policy, but we keep building wind mills.

Bad decision making: 1. Make a decision based solely on lofty goals and moralizing without a realistic plan to get from point A to point B. 2. Realize you didn’t make a realistic plan and put a bandaid on the new problem you just created, ensuring that it won’t get fixed.
-
3. Do not realize that the people who supplied your “bandaid” are doing the opposite of what you did. Criticize them for not following your example. 4. You wake up in the dark, but for the wildfires visible from your window.
