@YP, my 2c: If it weren't for the "green initiatives" focused on energy efficiency, energy conservation, and masses of renewable energy, the grid would have gone dark already today. Fires and heat waves like this are becoming more common because of climate change. Our answer cannot be to burn more fossil fuels. We should instead celebrate the progress we have made on energy efficiency, energy conservation, and masses of renewable energy, and demand more.
