A glorious double example of Simpson's paradox.

Naively you might think this (eg here in Australia the majority of electricity is still generated by burning coal) but:

- this is not true for a growing number of buildings that have PV solar

Wait till you learn when, and how, the typical Australian EV gets charged!
