Not as depressing as if it was coal power stations and coalmines blighting the landscape.

China is building more coal plants right now than the entire world combined so don’t worry they have those too.

And yet their coal usage has plateaued for the last few years, and actually likely started to decline in 25.

You mean in context of a complete regression in the West, right?

I mean, somewhat less depressing to look at that hospital wards full of people with COPD, which is the realistic alternative, IMO.

No, they are beautiful.
