We thank people who disregarded nuclear energy. We could’ve sliced global emissions by a lot if were not for you, but burning coal is far safer.

Thank the good old Green Party of Germany! Restarting all those coal plants and shutting down nuclear reactors!

Yeah, Ill take a source for this one. Coal power generation has not increased in Germany whereas the Green party’s policies in 1998 led to the first large scale deployment of solar energy in the world.

would removing wind turbine to expand the coal mine count as a source ?
