    And more than likely most of us here are using thinking stones powered by electricity created by very large machines far away eating organisms for fuel. Not to mention heating, but not everyone lives where there’s only two seasons; winter and July. (Actually I pay extra to have a 100% renewables contract I think but idk how well those work.)

      95% of Finland’s energy is already carbon neutral.

        “Carbon-neutral” isn’t synonymous with coming from renewables.

        In 2023, the electricity sold to [my energy company] customers was distributed by energy source as follows: 25% renewable energy sources, 28% fossil energy sources and peat, 47% nuclear power.

        But my point was rather a rhetorical one on a global level

          Yes, but in this case it means renewables + nuclear combined.
