Pigeon holes man! We need more pigeon holesNope. Never does.
In this context, they always link electrical energy to "energy".
Yeah, nah. Natural gas for heating and cooking is included in energy production/consumption figures. It just isn't specified. Only a percentage of it goes to electricity generation.Nope. Never does.

https://www.apga.org.au/gas-facts-and-figuresNatural gas provides almost as much energy as electricity to Australian homes. In 2016-17, natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas provided households with 181 petajoules of energy. For the same period, households used 213 petajoules of electricity. More than 100,000 kilometres of transmission and distribution pipelines deliver natural gas safely and reliably to homes around the country which use the gas for heating their houses, their hot water and for cooking.
Renewables currently account for 40 per cent of Germany's energy generation but there are plans to increase that to 65 per cent by the end of the decade. To meet its Paris targets, the country must do more.
#jobsngrof until we decide it’s not all about #jobsngrof.The question is whether changes are temporary. China’s climate gains – so far estimated at about 200 megatonnes of CO2 – could be short-lived if factories later reopen and crank up production to make up for lost business. President Xi Jinping has indicated the government will provide extra stimulus packages to help the economy recover. Some reports suggest this could prove counterproductive for the climate if this means ramping up coal production or relaxing environmental controls. The last time China suffered a major threat to GDP growth was during the 2008-9 financial crisis. Within a year, extra government spending ensured both the economy and CO2 were back on an upward trajectory.

Short term maybe, but I doubt people will embrace the current situation as the new norm for restricting our lifestyles.Corona is the best thing for global warming since the GFC
Without a doubt, but I can't think of a single action taken by any government, short of mass declaration of war and invasion on several significant countries that will have the impact on emissions that Corona will.Short term maybe, but I doubt people will embrace the current situation as the new norm for restricting our lifestyles.
