This reminds me of this little fun article

The transition to 100% renewable would be MORE damaging than status quo. That is something that the commies in the ICCP do not forecast.
Libs think that you can wish your way into this new green world without any of the logistics involved.

I pointed out earlier.
Just to meet stated wind energy goals by the stated timeline will require a 5% increase in global carbon emissions vs doing nothing.
And that's just fricking windmills!

Well it's really not possible to ever even get there IMO at least not for a country that uses as much electricity as the U.S.
But if you're worried about things like emissions you definitely wouldn't try to get there too fast. If you had a goal of getting to say 80% green tech in the next 12 years here you'd have to have a huge run up in emissions over at least the first half of those 12 years to get you there.
