No, please do.
So in the world today,
you've seen a very slow transition.
If there is one, the transition is in the mix of energy that we're using.
The percentage of each fuel each year, it's called primary energy.
60 years ago in 1965, that was mostly coal, some oil and a little bit of gas, some dams and a few other things dominated by those.
Today in the world,
It's about 80% coal, oil, and gas.
And coal has gone down in that mix as a percentage.
Oil is going down as a percentage.
Gas has increased.
And you got 20% of everything else, mostly nuclear and hydro, some solar, wind, and biofuels.
So there's a transition globally in the mix of energy we're using each year.
And it's very slow, very driven by physics and economics.
It's nice.
We have more optionality today than we did in the past.
That's a good thing.
But if you get rid of coal, oil, and gas and nuclear, you're down to less than 20% or less of everything else, fewer options, and they're intermittent, some of them.
So that's not a good thing.
So that's the global transition that's happening.
