Denmark didn’t “transition” its grid—it replaced it. ~15% → 92% renewable electricity in 25 years. Wind did the heavy lifting. Solar is scaling. Interconnection balanced. Flexibility solved variability. Wind built it. Solar is scaling. Fossil lost it. This IS system replacement. ⚡#Bettrification

10 years ago Mark Carney warned about the "existential threat" posed by climate catastrophe and the need to move from fossil fuel burning. Now he is using Stephen Harper's lines about becoming an "energy super power." This is a powerful analysis on the MOU. markhamhislop.substack.com/p/the-pipeli...

Mark Carney once declared the climate crisis as the existential threat of our time. Now as COPP 30 is burning down he promotes a massive increase in oil production. But he throws responsibility for resistance on BC and First Nations. He is burning his credibility on a dead end project.
