    I think there’s a reasonable argument to be made that climate change and the insufficiency of our efforts to stop it count as a slow-moving sort of apocalypse, but you’re right, point well-taken.

      Agree 100%. We’re literally living through the 6th mass extinction event.

      The worst part is that it’s solvable, but not profitable, so it isn’t happening.

      Anyway, gotta get back to work…

          Yes I understand that renewable adoption is accelerating, but so are CO2 emissions.

          And there is a problem that these charts don’t consider. An increase in energy generation from one source does not mean that there will be a decrease in power generation of another. We will just have both sources in an additive relationship.

          But that’s just capitalism baby! More! More! More!
