A decline in fossil fuel power is now ‘inevitable’, the report’s authors say.

30% its [sic] in the title

Right, but I don’t see anything in the title or the article itself about 30% being “sufficient.” To the contrary, the article quotes Sarah Brown, energy think tank Ember’s European program director:

The EU is “very much on the way” to its goal of having renewable sources account for 72 per cent of power generation by 2030.

This article is a celebration of a milestone that was crossed for the first time, no mention of 30% being sufficient. You’re assigning meaning that’s not there.

My point is that they are horrendously failing us because 30% is nowhere near where we need to be

Which wasn’t what the article was claiming, hence your post being a strawman

We should still be very actively condemning this and working to evict these failures from office. We can’t afford this inaction

It is, by definition, not inaction. However I agree that change is too slow.
