Whenever anyone talks about replacing fossil feul they seldom comprehend the magnitude of the problem.
For some reason it is difficult to find the percentage of renwables. They are currently about 7% and growing to about 9-12% per this report.

The bottom line is that we use a WHOLE HELL of a lot of energy....This report doesn't show renwables (including biomass) getting about 13% even by 2030.
