Great, but that doesn't mean less coal is being burned. The article says the share of coal in the total power of the US has been halved over the last five years but again, how much less coal has been burned? That's the important part.

Only speaking in parts tends to miss this:

On a global scale, energy sources cumulate, they don't replace each other.

    I disagree, there is a lot of quality content in Shorts format. I stumbled on multiple creators via Shorts, such as GenericArtDad. I have basically no slop in my Shorts anymore, if I ever had.
