22 regeringsleiders hebben bewust onrust gestookt met een verhaal vol onwaarheden. Voor electoraal effect. Een soort “nareis-op-nareis” verhaal, zeg maar. Het zou ze sieren dit niet alleen aan Sanchez toe te geven, maar ook publiekelijk aan de burgers www.nu.nl/buitenland/6...

Don't look now, but the world has now installed 3TW of solar. Took 10 years to get from 100GW to 1TW. Less than 3 years to get to 2TW. Less than 2 years to get to 3TW. Analysts expect *9TW* by 2036.
The World Crossed a Major Solar Milestone. No One Noticed
The next phase of the boom may reveal a shift in who is gaining access to the technology.
