Yes, this is a subtle point that is often forgotten.
May think that "more energy use" = "bad", but's an oversimplification. It depends where your energy is coming from.
The traditional thinking was that baseload power came from coal and peaking power came from natural gas. This is true for many geographies but not all. There are other mixes. Texas, despite its reputation for fossil fuels, also produces a surprising amount of renewable energy and that has been mix has been growing over the past little while.
