I shouldn't be shocked that Sen. Cornyn took this opportunity to go after renewable energy. Now is a time for compassion and trying to help people, not pointing fingers. But I do feel like it's important to show that this criticism of wind energy is misplaced https://twitter.com/JohnCornyn/status/1361658427395747842
This is a good thread showing what is really going on with the power grid. Yes, some wind is down, but there's a much bigger issue with natural gas https://twitter.com/JesseJenkins/status/1361348544154664961?s=20
I'm not going to go after natural gas because this is an unprecedented weather event, so I don't blame them entirely for not being prepared (though we do need to learn from this to keep it from happening again). I'm just showing this isn't a fossil fuel vs green energy problem
