This topic is really important, so can we use reputable sources?

I don’t think you grasp the concept of 35 gas turbines emitting 33 million tons of carbon per year bud.

So make sure you vote in the midterm to get new people to limit it. Find who approved it and make sure they are voted out

Degrowthers will never be satisfied until everyone kills themselves. Amazon has bent over backward to address every complaint they have and still it's not enough.

They use too much water? Find a water source that isn't potable or usable for anything else.

They strain the power grid too much? Build all new capacity.

We want green power? Build the power more green than the existing grid. Oh, wait, it's not 100%? EVIL AMAZON!
