Oh in that case just the net zero madness.
Burning coal is not a particularly efficient way of providing energy (almost half as efficient as natural gas) so either way not especially sad to see it go. The main problem with net zero is a) it’s either got to be a global effort or it’s a complete waste of time and b) we’ve spent far too much time worrying about NIMBYs over nuclear energy…so even if we went towards Nuclear today it would take over a decade to get power plants up and running.
Solar and Wind are even less efficient than Coal. But even if you don’t buy into global warming…burning hydrocarbons constantly is terrible for air quality…and not especially good to have a generation of people affected by pulmonary conditions
