More Workers In Solar Than Fossil Fuel Power Generation

"According to a new report from the U.S. Department of Energy, solar power employs more people than electricity generation through coal, oil and gas combined."

Good to hear we're on the right trajectory.

Regarding Trump wanting to bring back "clean" coal jobs... If some people in Appalachia/NE desire a particular obsolete job that requires large scale suffering by the public at large from polluted air, when there are abundant cleaner alternatives (as we can see in the report), they can go **** themselves, because their precious little job is not worth it.
