Democrat Climate Change Cult: Ban Everything!
Ministers from the Group of Seven (G7) nations have agreed to eliminate all coal-fired power plants by 2035.
The countries that are members of the Group of Seven (G7) are Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States, as well as the European Union.
This declaration was made by Andrew Bowie, a UK minister at the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, during an interview in Turing, Italy.
“We do have an agreement to phase out coal in the first half of the 2030s,” Bowie said.
“This is, by the way, a historic agreement, something that we weren’t able to achieve at COP28 in Dubai last year.”
“So, to have the G7 nations come around the table to send that signal to the world – that we, the advanced economies of the world are committed to phasing out coal by the early 2030s – is quite incredible,” he added.
Business Standard reported:
Italian diplomatic sources said a technical deal had been reached.
The accord will be included in the G7 energy ministers’ final communique to be released on Tuesday at the end of a two-day meeting in Turin.
One source told Reuters earlier that diplomats from the G7 nations – Italy, the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Canada and Japan – discussed the issue until late on Sunday, before the start of the ministerial gathering.
The agreement marks a significant step in the direction indicated last year by the COP28 United Nations climate summit for a transition away from fossil fuels, of which coal is the most polluting.
It helps accelerate the shift of investments from coal to clean technology in particular in Japan and more broadly in the whole Asian coal economy, including China and India,”

How many years of coal does the world have left to use? 100? 200? 300 years?
Just looked it on goggle.
“Based on U.S. coal production in 2022, of about 0.594 billion short tons, the recoverable coal reserves would last about 422 years!”
China, Russia and probably India pay for this to happen.
They are not merely benefactors on the sidelines.
And the azzholes want to ban it in 10 years! lol
Absolutely insane.
I don’t remember voting on this. I don’t recall Congress approving this treaty.
Idiocy x 7. The forces of evil march onward.
This sounds like a treaty. Treaties require ratification by the Senate.
Economic suicide.

A box of rocks on stupid pills !
The left wants electric everything, ipods, cars, and such but no electricity generation.
Because obviously electricity is magic and comes from nowhere, you just plug in and it’s there.
It’s insane.
France is okay because they have many nuclear plants. Everyone else will end up like Canada.
The END is indeed near for the USA...
I do recall the protestors whining about those power olants, we’ll see how long the French government holds out against them.
It’s been quite a while, so they might have a chance.
“ Stupid”
There a lot of stupid in Western Civilization these days. The supply is plentiful.
Some might say it’s terminal.
