Comment on The Amount of Electricity Generated From Solar Is Suddenly Unbelievable
gandalf_der_12te@discuss.tchncs.de 3 days agoi saw a nice infographic a while ago which put that nicely:
installing renewable energy reduces our CO2 emission by like 90% if fully implemented,
meanwhile cutting back our bullshit CO2 emission only reduces our total emissions by sth like 3%.
So the much more effective strategy is to focus on renewable energy sources, not so much on energy consumption.

Could you share a link to the infographic? I’d be curious to see the details.
Renewables line solar have a great potential at reducing CO2, but only if solar replace fossil fuels.
As an example, nig tech is wasting so much energy of AI they’re increasing both renewable and fossil fuel consomption to cover rapid rise in energy use. The end result is more pollution.

i’ve been looking for that infographic for 15 minutes yesterday, but i couldn’t find it anymore, unfortunately.
