Pressure from the tree huggers to lower carbon output that results
from "traditional" power generation, and yet nobody wants to reduce
their own demand for power.<br>

I'm all for renewables, but at micro scale. <br>
<br>
Renewables at grid scale, without a corresponding shift in demand
habits, is a little naive, I think. <br>
<br>
It's nice to say that power companies must go all renewables, when,
as a consumer, you want to keep flipping switches like you did in
the coal days. I just don't see it as a reality, when it comes down
to it.<br>
