The first two reports dealt with nuclear power (2003) and coal (2007). The introduction of large intermittent power generation from, for example, wind and solar, will have specific short and long term effects on the mix of generation technologies.

Spiking demand for electric heat collided with supply problems created by frozen natural-gas equipment and below-average wind-power production. Similar mismatches in supply and demand contributed to massive cascading blackouts in August 2003 in the northeastern United States and Canada, in July 2012 in India , and in March 2019 in Venezuela.

It’s –27 °C, dipping below –40 °C with wind chill—well below the operating temperature of most of the commercial equipment we brought for this expedition. These great masses store enough water to raise global sea level by 65 meters should they melt entirely. Our phones, laptops, and cameras are rapidly failing.

F), last measured in 2003, is the warmest the lake has been for a millennium and a half. An estimated 10 million people live near the lake, and they depend upon it for drinking water and for food. The team took core samples from the lakebed that laid out a 1,500-year history of the lake’s surface temperature. —Andrew Cohen.

In California, 20% of our electricity comes from zero CO2 renewables (sun, wind, geothermal), another 20% from zero CO2 hydro, and only 20.1% Sorry, but electrics and electric power plants are so efficient that CO2 emissions are less than gassers even when the electricity comes from coal - and a lot of electricity doesnt come from coal.

For only the second time since PPIC began asking the question in 2003, more Californians support expanding oil drilling off the coast than oppose it (51% favor, 43% oppose), the same as last year (51% favor, 45% oppose). But 18% name water supply and drought as most important issue, up 13 points from last year. Air quality.
