Interesting that the great bogey man of these pages, China, is making the opposite bet. They don't just burn coal, they already dominate the green energy industries of the future. Like our burgeoning debt, with Don about to break his first term record, our partisan soaked myopia will leave this turd in our grandchildren's punch bowl as well. Here's hoping China shares their technology...

Making the opposite bet? Coal plant construction in China reached a 10 year high in 2024.

Yes I acknowledged that, they're building major new coal installations. Two things can be true at once. Find a non-partisan source you trust (ignoring the left and right fringes) and compare where both countries stand. The rest of the world will keep moving forward regardless of the outcome of inane US culture wars. We can choose to participate and out compete them, or cede the ground. Our choice.
