There is absolutely a path to 100% renewable energy – the technology already exists, and is getting better (and cheaper!) every year
What's missing is the political will from governments and the EU to fully plan an end to fossil fuels, insulate and cut energy waste, and go full-tilt for renewables

ID cards are solving a problem that doesn’t exist. Good employers already ask for proof of right to work in the UK. It will cost billions and big corporates will handle the data. I’d be very happy to be proven wrong but until then… petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...
