20. Soon in this case means within decades
Edited on Mon Apr-26-10 12:51 PM by OKIsItJustMe
As in, we will be burning coal for decades.

Remember http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=115&topic_id=241568&mesg_id=241638">that European study even for the 100% renewable scenario assumes that current plants will be phased out as they reach their normal lifetime.



(We're still building coal plants.)
