Two key turning points were passed in the 2022-24 period:

1. The USA now has more jobs in renewable energy than coal/oil/gas. (Which means lobbying muscle that wasn't there a decade ago.)

2. PV roll-out worldwide is rising fast: we install as many solar panels in five days now as were installed in the whole of 2004, and the rate is doubling every 18 months or so.

The petrochemical industry wouldn't be panicking and lobbying this hard if they weren't in mortal peril!

MastodonNemo (@iinavpov@mastodon.online)I'm *not* as worried about climate change however. Sure, it's bad on the face of it. But today, the fight is about electrification, renewables, nuclear, and insulation. All of which will do absolutely fine. Later, there will be other things, and honestly, I'm not sure what they are. Probably better design, urbanism, different agricultural practices. DAC, eventually. But the urgent stuff? It's all happening.
