It’s a valid point and yet given it’s pge we’d have to mention they blew up people in San Bruno due to their shoddy natural gas pipeline so we might need examples from outside pge to check that it’s not just an awful safety culture and poor maintenance makes anything unsafe. But yes in principe lines can start fires or electrocute people, squirrels, and Mylar balloons |

I agree, I just felt that the original article was being disingenuous by stating that power lines are somehow safer than fossil fuel infrastructure just because it’s not fossil fuel. Whereas it is more about your point on safety culture, where both can be equally as safe or dangerous if managed incorrectly.
