"Carbon pollution dropped 13 percent statewide since a 2004 peak; meanwhile the economy grew 26 percent."

Yes, and I know the smoke any mirrors utilized to create such numbers.

California imports about a quarter of its electricity on average

California has been the national leader in the energy transition, and in many ways has even led the world – even if outpaced by smaller nations such as Denmark and Uruguay. However, critics have long pointed to the large amount of electricity imported by the state – nearly 1/3 of all power consumed – to allege that the state’s power is not as clean as claimed.

You should do a real analysis of California CO2 emissions. Start with the CO2 produced by a Prius built in Japan and imported into California. The CO2 emissions from the production of the Prius Dominates the drive time CO2 emissions. But the CO2 emissions of the California Prius are assigned to Japan.

Its a life cycle WharfRat. A total system. You have to account for all the CO2 emissions... If you actually wanted to be accurate.

So, which do you prefer. Real Data and accurate information, or propaganda?
