The peer-reviewed report, written by researchers at the Stockholm Environment Institute, Climate Analytics and the International Institute for Sustainable Development, aims to focus attention on the supply side of the climate equation and the government policies that encourage or steer fossil fuel production.
What’s their bias?
Nation wide workers strike? Is this a thing? Asking for a friend in USA? /s
No easy access to legal porn means illegal porn becomes more profitable. That’s very bad.
China wants USA stable and sane. Weak or strong USA isn’t a priority right now.
People tend to forget how afraid China is of USA. Last time Trump was in office Milley had to call China a couple of times to tell them USA was not going to implode and attack China.
Someone has to make hard decisions when other people won’t make sane decisions. No one wants Trump to start WW3 with China. No one.
Remember what just happened when China hit the off switch on rare earth metals?
Anyone got that quote about Trump wanting to build resorts in North Korea?
a 67-year-old Israeli living in central Israel, told MEE that after initially supporting the strikes against Iran, reality quickly hit home that Israel was vulnerable and that Israelis, just like Iranians, could also be targeted.
“The attack surprised me,” Yafa-Niger said.
The reality is that people in Canada were motivated to vote. Spinning that isn’t as important.
It is a war.
It’s a war.
The order came after China unveiled retaliatory tariffs of 125% on American goods this past weekend, the people said. Those levies on their own would have more than doubled the cost of US-made aircraft and parts, making it impractical for Chinese airlines to accept Boeing planes.
This stupidity is because of their previous stupidity. They shut down coal powered furnaces before they had a not coal powered furnace up and running.
And just like last time Trump will give them money to not talk about it.
RTFA. Your comment is what China said. At this level trade basically stops. That’s the point.
“The bottom line is that the world runs on imported fossil fuels under the umbrella of the Pax Americana,” said Kingsmill Bond, an energy analyst at Ember, a London-based energy think tank. “As Trump destabilizes that, then people will look to their own domestic energy sources, which in most cases means renewables and electrification.”
The new order that Bond is describing would push the United States to the side. While this view is optimistic about global growth of renewables, heat pumps and EVs, it also indicates a slower and dirtier path for the U.S.
Bond argues that since most countries do not have plentiful oil and gas within their borders, they need to import it and have confidence in the stability of supply and pricing. As that confidence erodes, they will look to alternatives.
Most countries do not have substantial solar panel, wind turbine or battery production, so reliance on those resources would also require imports. But the difference compared to fossil fuels is that a shipment of solar panels, for example, can provide benefits for 30 years. The buyer isn’t signing up for dependence on daily shipments of fuel.
So what? China fixed climate change and is willing to sell affordable solar and batteries and EVs to the world.
USA did not do that. China did.
Read up on what China has been doing with green energy. Then Australia.
Republican support. That’s how.
Keeping oil prices down slows down the green energy transition. That’s it.
If that seems odd to you then read up on what China has been doing with green energy. Then USA.
The world runs on fossil fuels. What happens when China stops playing that game?
