that methane is as bad as coal when the leaks are factored in, and the leaks are ubiquitous.
And right now, in the European Union, the fossil fuel lobbyists are arguing as hard as they can to stop legislation to try to deal with methane leaks, because they think it'll cause them some money.

What's really behind this preposterous theory they call climate realism?
Could it be that they're kind of panicking a little bit about the loss of their markets?

But last year, if you look at all the new electricity installed worldwide, 93 percent of it was renewable, mostly solar.
So,
The IEA has told us long since, we have all the technologies we need and proven deployment models to reduce emissions 50 percent in this decade and clear line of sight to the other 50 percent.
A friend of mine in Tennessee said, if God wanted us to have unlimited free energy, he'd have put a giant fusion reactor in the sky.
