Uhuh.
As someone who lives in China, in what must be the world's center for hydropower (the south-east Himlayan region), where a huge number of people get around on e-bikes and you never see a Tesla, I remain skeptical of US commitment to clean energy. So should you.
China makes most of everything for everyone, including solar panels. Residential energy consumption per-capita is rising but still far beneath western levels. Industrial consumption frequently has a significant export component and thus that pollution is essentially outsourced... any direct comparison is therefore flawed.

- peteretep 10y agoThat is also meant to mean something, but I have no idea what.

- nl 10y agoI don't understand this comment at all. Is it attempt to say that - despite your view that we should be concerned that the CAP was founded by John Podesta - what they are saying is correct? Because it appears the article entirely agrees with your point?
- spangry 10y agoUhuh. So if the US did withdraw from the Paris climate agreement, which is what the article is warning against, would you become more or less sceptical about US commitment to clean energy?
