AFAIK, this one isn’t true. CO2 emissions aren’t going down. We’re not getting a word with renewables instead of fossil fuels. We’re getting a world with both of them used in abundance.
But the economics are clear: if renewables stay cheaper than fossil fuels (and there’s no reason to think they won’t), governments will make the switch anyway.
Water power was cheaper than coal, yet Britain industrialized on coal power.
britbongs also chopped down all their trees and waged a worldwide war for spices they never used, they’re a silly people
Growth of carbon has been slowing to zero and we’re hitting peak carbon sometime around now
