Energy & emissions are complex to account for. I don’t know too much about the US but in France we had quite good results in term of reductions. But where do they come from? From the optimisation of our energy consumption? Or from the relocation of some of our companies abroad? |

France has the benefit of large-scale nuclear power. Any given day, my home province of Ontario, is at around 85%-95% fossil-fuel-free emissions because of nuclear and hydro [1]. If instead we decided to go with solar and wind, then we'd be waiting until 2060 to cut CO2 emissions and burning much more natural gas until then ... just like Germany.
