That’s even more impressive when you consider how much more power demand there is. The seasonal peak probably came in early August at a level about 100 gigawatts higher than last year, government officials said.
Finally some good news.
I hope it is not too late
It’s never too late. Things will get worse before they get better, but they won’t become the worst case scenario.
Not if we all do what we know is right.
I really hope you are right.
Some days ago (and I cannot find the link now) I read an article from one of the ipccc saying that what we are seeing right now was expected in the 2035 to 2050 time frame for the 2°C increase.
So, It would mean that the 2° opportunity Window is over and now the realistic goal is 3.5° with the current development for the 2050 time frame.
It is not necessary to say that the 3.5 scenario is the worst with severe impact on the full planet and almost every ecosystem will be under very high pressure (if they are not now)
So, one again, I hope my despair is unjustified, but I will need a burning nail to grab with both hands

The U.S. / China tariff war began in January of this year. I wonder how much a reduction in production has played a role in those numbers.
