What You Say

U.S. coal generation has declined for fifteen years while renewables and gas filled the gap — EIA data shows wind and solar are the fastest-growing sources. Grid reliability issues in Texas were tied to gas and coal plant failures during freezes, not renewables alone. Climate mobilization invests in storage and transmission so clean power scales — clinging to coal is nostalgia subsidized by lobbyists.
