No shit, the global south is leading the renewable charge.

What's the breakdown on emissions though?

It would also be nice to get one with nuclear added. Not renewable, but still green.

How/why is North Korea so green?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

doesn't a lot of their energy come from solar and hydropower?

In france-cool's defense, they at least have nuclear which doesn't need to be counted as "renewable", but is definitely leagues better than dinosaur juice.
