But who will turn their OWN lights off to help?
I don't like coal much either, but since it produces over 50% of the electricity in the US and over 95% in the west where I live, going cold turkey ALSO means turning off a lot of lights.
I put up my own money and built my own solar generator and now produce 25% of my electric needs. In time I will produce more, but it still takes a lot of oil and coal to build those solar panels I need to buy.
Who will cut their OWN power consumption of coal fed electricity right now to help stop the burning of coal?
I don't see many hands
