You often hear that clean energy is not replacing fossil energy, only adding to total energy, and thereby not reducing emissions. ("There is no transition," they say.) It's nonsense. Read this post from @zekehausfather.com about how much FF has been displaced by renewable energy:

What if the world hadn't built wind and solar?

Clean energy does not simply “add to” global energy use; it displaces fossil sources that would otherwise get built.

I know that's impossible to answer, but I want to hear a breakdown of the ways it will likely increase emissions, and an estimated GHG impact for each of those mechanisms Then I want to hear a breakdown of the ways it will decrease emissions, and an estimated GHG impact for each of those mechanisms

I think people catching measles then dying is bad, and that the govt should see zero measles deaths as the goal—like America had until recently—rather than see measles as a positive, culling the population of people with other health conditions. Sorry to get so partisan, but that’s how I feel.

Last week we drove a canoe from DC to the Adirondacks on my all electric 2017 Chevy Bolt. There were plenty of chargers, even with the reduced range from having a canoe on the roof. It's amazing how far EV charging infrastructure has come, including fast chargers inside the park.
