It’s 20 years since we started blogging on climate here on RealClimate (December 10, 2004). There is one graph that perhaps tells the story of what has happened since 2004, and it’s the Keeling curve shown in the figure below. Another thing I didn’t anticipate in 2004 was efforts such as the World Weather Attribution (WWA).
I wrote about it before, both solar photovoltaic and windpower are on exponential curves. When I discovered solar photovoltaic in 2004, the global capacity was around 5 GW. Even the IEA has stopped denying it. Earlier this year it surpassed 1,000 GW. A factor 200 in less than 20 years.
Environmental groups had identified five categories of new information since the 2004 preparation of an EIS that they contended warranted supplemental review under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).
One of the worst seismological disasters of the modern age happened at Christmas 2004 when an earthquake under the ocean causes a massive tsunami, killing around 250,000 people. When the ground moves, it creates ripples on the land. Earthquakes that occur at sea create ripples in the water that cause tsunamis.
American Sugar claims that one of its confiscated shipping ports, Puerto Carupano, was used by the defendants to deliver equipment to the nearby Herradura Wind Farm Project, the largest windpower project in Cuba.[[N: N: See Complaint, North American Sugar Industries Inc. Xinjiang Goldwind Science & Technology Co. ,
Energy exports began to increase in 2004, and around 2008 imports began to decline. Solar and windpower have enjoyed steep increases since 2010, and now produce more power than coal. By 2018, energy exports exceeded imports, and that trade balance has stayed in our favor ever since.
