California has climate change related wildfires like every 8 months and republicans dunked on it mercilessly for power outage issues

Texas has *one* climate change related snowstorm and their entire infrastructure is destroyed rendering its citizens basically without power and water and trapped in igloos for days.

I've said this a million times but climate change is coming for those republican states too.

some people here are being foolishly giddy about the unreliability of renewable wind energy being proven

@Niburu NatGas pipelines proved similarly unreliable. And Amerifats of all political stripes twist their panties over nuclear energy.

A most silly people.

@QuixoticSoul I was unaware the natural gas power plants have frozen up as well, they must be poorly designed in Texas, the ones we have here in Virginia work in all weather conditions

@Niburu Somehow, Canadians keep their wind farms going through the winter as well. Texas was simply not prepared for these conditions. And as these extreme weather events become more common, it becomes obvious that nobody actually is.

@QuixoticSoul I suspect the Canadian wind turbines have a de-icing heating element built into the generator housing, I'd also bet it was an option that was not taken when the Texas utility that bought them failed to opt for.
