    I’m using China as a demonstration, that moving over to a renewable first or renewable only energy mix isn’t just a wave your magic wand thing. Solar only makes up a few percentage points of China’s energy mix. Same with wind.

      No shit, which is why they’re rapidly expanding their renewable energy infrastructure. How much of their energy do you think is going to come from solar 10 years from now? 20? Meanwhile half of US politicians refuse to even acknowledge the existence of climate change.
