Interesting timing as some fossil fuel lobbies appear to have suddenly realised that renewables are a genuine threat to them in the near future. I guess that's the trouble with exponential growth, it can take you by surprise even if you are paying attention.
Low level propaganda that has for decades supported center-right parties doing their best to slow the transition has clearly stepped up into desperation and wild claims lending support to far right parties.
I guess it's a race, can the obvious success of renewables and EVs happen fast enough to make the far-right's complaints and conspiracies seem laughable, or do we welcome a decade dominated by fascists in the West and then a century dominated by Chinese communists who are paying a bit more attention to where the puck is headed?

The propaganda going around trying to stop wind from being built off the jersey shore has been increasingly insane. Suddenly a whole lot of anti-regulation types care a whole lot about marine life and the environment.
