On the Fact that the Supposedly Environmentally Friendly Country of Germany Is Currently Adding a Record Number of Coal and Natural Gas-Fired Plants to Their Energy System

They claim that it's because they're trying to reduce their reliance on nuclear energy (which ironically emits NO CO2), but I think that it has more to do with the fact that they've built so many wind and solar farms and that this form of energy can't reliably function without a fossil fuel back or even fossil fuel to run the damn suckers.......So, basically the same reason that China is building them, in other words.
