> Nothing I said was a lie.

"Lying by omission" means things not said. Facts deliberately left out to mislead.

> You omitted the fact that the majority of their power comes from the most polluting fossil fuel in existence: coal

And you omitted the fact that majority of cumulative carbon emissions come from developed countries. Not to mention you're spreading your lies on an article that's literally about them reducing total emissions, the final refuge for people like you ("America still emits less, the climate doesn't care about pe-capita blah blah"). Seriously, re-evaluate your priors. Consider the possibility that maybe, just maybe, someone is doing something about the climate, and not even on purpose, while we just sit around.

> It's not building these plants for shits and giggles

Apparently they are because 80% of their energy growth doesn't come from those plants. I think they're part jobs programs, part backup plan.
