Contributing sentiments towards policy:

63% : Maybe governments will, at last, see the virtues of transitioning to clean energy faster.
58% : Solar power, meanwhile, has been heroically filling in the gaps.
53% : But our leaders should also be pushing aggressively for more clean energy -- which has so far kept today's heat and energy crisis from being even worse, and which might, one day, prevent us from enduring this expensive agony again.
36% : They (falsely) blamed wind turbine failures for outages during Texas's extreme cold snap last year, even though the main power failures came from thermal sources (gas, coal, nuclear) that hadn't been winterized.
