As I have spent some sleepless nights since the latest IPCC report on how Mankind has to halve its carbon emissions by 2030. As we shall see, this is already currently happening, it is the moral thing to do, the best economic choice, and the fastest and easiest way to halve our emissions. Current situation.

New California legislation will require corporations to disclose their carbon emissions. Rooftop solar costs in 2020 were a third of what they had been in 2010. In 2020, the cost of single-axis utility scale solar was only a fifth of what it was in 2010. In short, we’re seeing something like a slimmed-down Green New Deal.

Some have argued that weather-dependent energies would, paradoxically, make electricity even more reliable. Adding more variable energy sources to electricity grids, all else being equal, might not in itself make electricity less reliable. But all else is not equal. GW of wind produced at a rate of 0.65
