Stupid article. Takes an exponential trend which it doesn’t show, and points at the fact that the linear version of it over the past 30 years is just a few percentage points per year.

Well, I mean, it’s a rural Wyoming “news” site written by a contributor who routinely writes hit pieces on environmental groups. You get what you pay for.

What are you talking about? I ONLY trust REAL 100% American home grown "news" sites like "Cowboy State Daily Dot Com".

It's the sole source of truth for 10s or even 11s of people world wide with a daily readership of hundreds!

We are way down from peak coal and its not really solar/wind that's taking it's place it natural gas.

renewables usage has doubled in the last 10 years. In electricity generation.

> renewables usage has doubled in the last 10 years.

That really undersells the growth. 10 years ago it was basically all hydro, so solar and wind went from essentially 0 to 12%. That's not doubling, thats divide-by-zero error growth.

If you linearly extrapolate from just last year, that number goes down to 20 years.

If you exponentially extrapolate, that number goes down to 6 years.

(This is for electricity generation, transport usage will take longer)
