Choice News Tuesday: 90% of new renewable energy is now cheaper than fossil fuels

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Weโ€™ve hit a tipping point, where choosing clean energy is the smart choice, and not just because we want to reduce our carbon emissions ๐ŸŒโšก๐Ÿ’ธ

Thanks to major tech improvements and mass production over the past decade, the cost of wind, solar, and other renewables has dropped fast. As a result, most new power capacity built around the world came from renewables, and every continent added more clean energy than fossil fuels.

Money โ€” the ultimate decision-maker in politics and business โ€” is finally lining up with climate action. A big win for the planet (and maybe our wallets?)

We hope this news brings a smile!
