- gcthomas 6y agoStill 38% renewable/low carbon sources, so that's not bad even with wind nearly out of the picture this afternoon.
- goodcanadian 6y agoSure, but look at yesterday. In the near term, we clearly can't decommission the gas power plants because we still need them sometimes, but when the wind blows (as it often does), we save burning that gas and the associated CO₂ release.
