Good to aspire to be like China on the energy front.
That's how you do renewables successfully. Cut out all the crappy politics, commercial greed, and interests of fringe groups.
Ask yourself how they managed to increase their renewable energy sector to the current proportions without disrupting just about everything in their country. The fact that they do have a lot of renewables alongside fossil fuel and nuclear energy generation tells you a lot about them.
They do not need to pander to dumb-fucks that only want what they want. They do what's best for the country, and that's to continue having the old stuff while they nurture the new stuff. If they'd shut down their coal generators before having enough replacements like what we're doing in Oz, hah, think about what that will do!
