Awesome news on electrification! I gave a presentation on climate change this past weekend at a Chicago Public Library, and I got a lot of pushback on electrification. The biggest concerns were mining and cost. I think the "economical" piece of the Ember data is crucial for cost. As for mining, I think people are right to be concerned, but we have to keep pushing for mining to be improved while recognizing the immense damage (and heavy mining) of the fossil fuel status quo.

Wonderful. I can’t help thinking that the “living seawall” you show above is actually a low tide only (exclusive) rock climbing gym available for only for a limited time.
Hi Sam, i know this question cannot be answered with any certainty at this time, but do you think the global progression of renewable energy will be adequate to supply humanity’s growing appetite for electricity in the future?
