The world has passed a critical threshold in solar power adoption. Assuming no major policy disruptions, a recent study has shown that solar power is projected to be the primary source of global power generation by 2050. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/environment/2023/10/20/sustainability/solar-electricity-market/?utm_content=bufferac2b2&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn

@thejapantimes Always has been. It's just the timescale that's changed - we're now storing solar energy for hours in batteries instead of storing it for millions of years in oil.

2050 is still too late to thwart the enormous efforts by the oil industry to retain its primacy.

The climate damage is already well underway.
The damage to democracy is well underway.

The shift to solar must accelerate if it's going to matter.
