Good news, but I'd like natural gas to start shrinking like the others.

    Agreed. A good first step towards accelerating that would be to stop giving the fossil fuel industry subsidies and instead give those subsidies to zero emission energy sources.

    Solar is already the cheapest IIRC. If it got stupid cheap to the point of basically being free, a lot of people would switch over.
