Fortheloveofgawd someone PLEASE get him away from microphones. Every day he grows more disgraceful than the day before. He’s in one nightmare of his mind and we’re in another nightmare because of it.
Oh, it generates alright. All fertilizer, unfortunately.
Good, we’re done then!
remember how they mocked/mock President Trump for saying gloBULL warming was a hoax, invented for the benefit of the Chinese? well, now “climate change”-obsessed Financial Times in UK (equivalent of WSJ) has no problem outlining the following - and China’s position is only stronger post-war Afghanistan:
4 Feb 2021: UK Financial Times: How the race for renewable energy is reshaping global politics
As the transition from fossil fuels to clean energy gathers speed, what does it mean for the balance of power?
by Leslie Hook and Henry Sanderson
A tally of countries’ activities in clean energy found one racing far ahead of the rest. “We have one country in pole position,” he says. “China.”...
Copper is essential for electric cables and wind turbines, and cobalt is used in electric vehicle batteries. China Molybdenum now controls more than one-tenth of the world’s cobalt. Tenke Fungurume is an “absolutely great asset”, says copper analyst George Heppel of business intelligence company CRU. “I don’t think there’s anything quite like that size, in terms of gigantic deposits.”
The purchase is just one in a series of moves that have put Chinese groups ahead in almost every area of clean tech. China produces more than 70 per cent of all solar photovoltaic panels, half of the world’s electric vehicles and a third of its wind power. It is also the biggest battery producer and controls many of the raw materials crucial for clean-tech supply chains, such as cobalt, rare earth minerals and polysilicon, a key ingredient in solar panels...
Beijing dominates the supply chain from the mines in the DRC to the final production of lithium-ion batteries. Its companies control more than 85 per cent of the world’s refined cobalt chemical capacity, essential for most lithium-ion batteries. It also mines almost all of the world’s rare earth minerals, which are used in electric motors and wind turbines. Making an electric vehicle without involving China is almost impossible...
The cost of lithium-ion batteries today is just one-seventh what it was a decade ago, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance. CATL is now building a battery plant in Germany. “It was actually a brilliant strategy,” says Jim Greenberger, founder of NAATBatt, the North American trade association for advanced battery technology. “CATL was the winner and they have used that scale to compete very effectively in the export market. That’s the issue we’re dealing with in the west: how to compete with Chinese companies that have gotten to scale, via use of industrial policy.”...
As the world shifts from carbon to electron, China has been active in developing the electricity network that will be the backbone of the clean energy system. One of Xi’s pet projects is the Global Energy Interconnection — a network of high-voltage transmission lines that would span the globe. The project envisages cheap electricity being shipped around the world — from dams in Congo to Europe. It is headed by Liu Zhenya, the former chief of State Grid, who describes it as the “internet of energy”...
“The idea is to connect countries with [clean energy] resources, with those that have the demand,” explains Xu Yi-chong, author of Sinews of Power: The Politics of the State Grid Corporation...
(Biden) wants the US to adopt a net-zero emissions target, but he has also pledged to revive US manufacturing. Jonas Nahm, assistant professor of energy at Johns Hopkins University, says new US climate targets could benefit Chinese companies: “This administration is caught in a pickle, which is that all of the climate goals that are being promised will rely on China, at least in the short term.”
Other global leaders face a similar quandary: as they invest more in the energy transition, some of that money will filter back to China. “This is prompting a lot of anxiety, especially amid this proliferation of net-zero commitments,” says Van de Graaf, “because other countries, such as Japan, the US and the EU, will make a transition that is very costly, and the economic benefit of that will be reaped disproportionately by China.”

We’ll, it is in a way. It’s the perfect meme generator. No editing required.
2020 will be too late. Global warming will kill us in 2016.

Bidiot won 80% of his Democrat-women voters.
I can read a post, as long as I don’t click on anything.
7 years in a Dem world is too much. We have to Fight now thru midterms to increase #’s because after we can finally return to semi normal and that sounds pretty good to me for starters.
Maybe Biden meant to say something else.
