You're absolutely right. It's not like we want to, but he goes on to do his stuff.

hopefully China will reach soon enough the tipping point where the increase of energy demand will be covered from new renewables, nuclear and storage. From that point on there will be no need for any new hydrocarbon burning energy producers. The next step will start when the price of coa, oill and gas production will be very expensive for the system, so the existing ones will gradually be phased out.

citizens should have right to use free public transport. Tourists and visitors should pay in order to keep transportation free for the citizens. There is a debate in Europe (where I live) about the pressure of tourism and the additional cost that tourism creates especially in housing and the cost of living. So this is one way to migirate the problem of cost of living.

  1. Public transport should be free for all the citizens and paid for tourists visitors.
  2. Citizens should get a free pass card and tourist a top up card.
  3. An open source web app should be available with lines and timetables, and everything should be anonymized.
  4. Public transport should be funded from fuel taxes, car registration taxes and rich people
