"We" haven't moved from coal to natural gas, much less, from natural gas to wind and solar.
With regard to natural gas, I find this incredibly remarkable. As I've said earlier, this explains why federal and state governments want to ban natural gas stoves and ovens: natural gas absolutely destroys the interest in renewable energy by consumers who actually pay for their electricity (by the way, this has huge implications for investors in oil and gas):

The Book Page
Two new books to add to my winter reading program:
- The Book of Eels, Our Enduring Fascination with the Most Mysterious Creature in the Natural World, Patrick Svensson, c. 2020.
- The Mind of a Bee, Lars Chittka, c. 2022. Princeton University Press. A scientific treatise. The pitch of the print is so tiny -- if one regularly reads in 12-pitch, this book must be printed in 9-pitch, and even possibly 8-pitcch. Very challenging to read unless one really concentrates but it probably resulted in this 213-page book (text, not including index) from being 3x thicker.
