The climate change denial coming from USA today is only hastening its decline in relation to the rest of the world.
USAs energy policies are a tragic throwback to the 1950s- a symptom of a dying empire in complete denial about the reality of climate change and the already available solutions that USA is ignoring...leaving China to gain a massive lead in nuclear, hydro, solar and wind generation...
USA cannot build anything of substance anymore- certainly not in a competitive way compared to China- look at tghe tragic attempt by USA to build new nuclear generation compared to Chinas amazing success where they are building multiple new nuclear generators at 1/6th the cost USA is paying.
1/6th!
Chinese businesses and consumers pay less than 1/2 what other industrialised world consumers and businesses pay and the electrification of transport including bullet trains and heavy trucks is rapidly eliminating urban smog. EVs adoption gives China yet another huge advantage over the crony capitalist climate change denying USA.
