Coal bans without viable alternatives—when policy outpaces reality. Many households now face a tough choice: heating costs skyrocket while renewable infrastructure still can't bridge the gap. It's a textbook case of transition pain, where the economics don't quite add up for everyday people. This kind of economic friction often ripples beyond energy markets.

You're absolutely right... Policies are idealistic, but the people at the grassroots level still have to pay their electricity bills. Banning coal is fine, but if infrastructure can't keep up, why should the common people bear the cost?

Damn, isn't this just the usual tactic of promising policies and making the common people pay? It's just like some project teams in the crypto world doing shady stuff.

Policies are moving too fast for the people to keep up, that's the reality.

Banning coal without controlling prices means the common people will have to freeze? This policy is really idealistic.

ngl this is like watching a difficulty spike before the network adjusts... except people are literally freezing. policy rushed ahead without the hashpower to back it up, classic engineering fail. reminds me of those early days when everyone pushed for upgrades without calculating the actual thermal overhead lol

Here we go again with this? Banning coal but not prices, the common people will foot the bill.
