MODERATORS
Ok, so fossil fuel is still the primary driver. But well, incremental improvements do matter. Zeroing out coal this year is a great milestone.
The share from renewables is growing too, even if a bit slowly.
Too bad the Alberta gov has put a moratorium on new clean energy.
So bizarre. Apart from snow, Alberta also has so much wind and sun. USE IT!
I agree. Danielle Smith, the former oil and gas lobbyist who is now Premier, does not. Alberta elected Conservatives out of habit and hatred (homophobia, homeless, etc) and shot clean energy in the foot by doing so.
But that might destabilize the ~~bribery~~ power grid!
The moratorium already gave way to a ridiculously restrictive ruling but at least it's not outright block so while it's still sad, it's not entirely hopeless - which sums up Alberta politics as always.
Coal is so friggin dirty it's not even the same league. The world should have done away with in the 70s.
