...miss because they rather automatically accept rote pablum, is that so called "renewable energy" is a misleading term, since in every case, certainly biomass via combustion of whole forests, the word "renewable" is one of the most abused word in the language.

To have used my numbers to make an argument, one would need a reasonable understanding of what numbers mean, what they entail.

Sometimes I forget how downright primitive and superficial the understanding of environmental issues can be, but unhappily I'm frequently reminded of it.

Tearing the shit out of wilderness for biomass is even more obscene than lacing forests with asphalt roads to service wind turbines placed in them.

From my perspective proponents of so called "renewable energy " are perfectly willing to trash any and every ecosystem on the planet in order to make appalling statements about numbers they are preternaturally incapable of understanding, for example whether said numbers represent tragedy and loss as opposed to what they've blithely trained in lockstep Pavlovian propaganda to regard as wonderful.

The updated Mauna Loa CO2 concentration data is in for yesterday, 421.0 ppm. That's a number I care about. As for the numbers under the heading for "renewable energy" in the 2022 IEA WEO, to me all are representations of a tragedy driven by lazy bad thinking, reactionary fear, and deliberate ignorance.

I couldn't care less how whining antinukes see them.

Have a nice evening.
