Making ethanol from corn is the least efficient use of farmland

Huh? Not According to the International Energy Agency.

India’s clean energy transition is rapidly underway, benefiting the entire world

Dr Fatih Birol Amitabh Kant Dr Fatih Birol, Executive Director, International Energy Agency
Amitabh Kant, CEO of NITI Aayog (National Institution for Transforming India) Commentary — 10 January 2022

This commentary was first published by The Times of India.

India’s announcement that it aims to reach net zero emissions by 2070 and to meet fifty percent of its electricity requirements from renewable energy sources by 2030 is a hugely significant moment for the global fight against climate change. India is pioneering a new model of economic development that could avoid the carbon-intensive approaches that many countries have pursued in the past – and provide a blueprint for other developing economies.....

India is world's 3rd largest consumer of electricity and world's 3rd largest renewable energy producer with 38% of energy capacity installed in the year 2020 (136 GW of 373 GW) coming from renewable sources.

So 237 gigawatts of new production in one year from fosil fuels. Probably 75% coal?

Canada produces 8.8 gigawatts from coal.
So they had 27x more new builds than we can ever shut down.

Get some lessons on screenshots then a lesson on generation sources for electricity.

Canada gets 60% of its electricity from renewable hydro. And solar and wind energy can be stored in batteries, pumped hydro, gravity storage.

So we alredyy have a lot of the technology and we have only just begun to decarbonize.

again you clearly dont care about the damage done in other countries by this madness

I have been mistakenly claiming that the purpose of EV's in big cities is to keep the combustion of nasty toxic polluting material in someone else's backyard instead of in the city.

Turns out I was wrong. This looks like some really pleasant byproducts to be releasing in the middle of the city.

[chuckChuck]

And ICE buses and cars never catch fire? LOL

Do you leave you engines running in your shop while you fixing your equipment?

Or did you forget that ICE vehicles are spewing combustion gases and carbon into the atmosphere every minute they are running leading to high levels of pollutants in most cities?

Nice distraction A5 but nobody is falling for it.
