This is a game-changing move as peaker plants and even baseload ones will become more and more irrelevant, decreasing carbon emissions. India plans to stop selling ICE cars by 2030.

If renewables are booming and energy efficiency is gaining some traction, greenhouse gases emissions are still growing and the atmospheric concentration of carbon is still rising. Deforestation and environmental destruction are still a reality in many countries around the world. We need to do a whole lot more. Is it hopeless?
