@bradr@infosec.exchange Great news, but this is _only_ aboute electricity production. Is there a graph with _all_ energy and fossil use? I.e. including motor traffic (which still runs on oil), heavy industries and chemical processes?

    @pietervdvn@en.osm.town This was the comment I was about to make. We're doing ourselves a misser ice every time there's progress on electricity generation and it is announced as all energy being transitioned from fossil to green. Electricity is the easier task of the two energy challenges - the hard one is fuel @bradr@infosec.exchange

  • @pietervdvn@en.osm.town @bradr@infosec.exchange ou can find some figures about that in pour world in data, world wide, a developed country uses on average 80% of not electricity, and it does not change fast. Low carbon production is good, but it will nyo solve anything if the usage switches to it fast, and it will be totally useless if there is no stopping in emitting high carbon sources, because this causes harm at scale. So we always should watch and denounce the #greenwashing behind some good news, and be careful. Things are not evolving fast enough right now, and delaying the change is also making it harder to achieve and adding to the toll.
