David HoDo y’all think about how the desert city of Dubai, which is hosting the next United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP28), has a huge indoor ski facility that has a lodge that uses gas heaters to keep guests warm?

@davidho In 2020, the UAE generated 91% of its electricity from natural gas, and 5% by burning oil. (Solar PV was 4%.) The water used to make that snow cane out of the gulf, via massive desalination plants powered directly by natural gas, and the snowmaking equipment is powered by grid electricity as above.
