      Fair point. Fossil fuel cannot be replaced overnight. Such a sudden disruption is doing to cause harm.

      The need to decrease fossil fuel has been clear for 30+ years. It wasn’t seriously acted on, and we missed the opportunity to decrease their use in an orderly and painless way. Now we’re facing chaotic and painful changes.

      I hope we’re not loosing sight of the goals, and don’t bring back coal to compensate.
