Amelia_Dunn1 Oops I lied!!

ErmoPlumber Amelia_Dunn1 Promoting expensive expenditure in times of huge debt? Are we all crazy? it would be faster and cheaper to bring Coal power generation to acceptable levels. Renewables will never provide the reliability needed for industries and businesses, let alone households🦘
