As we rush toward the impossible zero electric power emissions by 2030, our coal burn is rebounding to an estimated 600 million tons a year. Speaking of trillions, that is 1.2 trillion pounds of coal, reports David Wojick.
Besides this, coal producers are actively pursuing 2.2 billion tons per annum of new mine projects around the world, a growth of 30 percent from current production levels.
Five Asian countries are jeopardizing climate ambitions by investing in 80% of the world’s planned new coal plants. Why are they knocking back all the cheap solar and wind power? Could it be that China, India, Indonesia, Japan and Vietnam are filled with stupid people who can’t add up. Or is it that they can do the sums and they noticed that every nation with renewables also has expensive electricity, asks Julian Ambrose.

Coal plants expanding worldwide, but not so in United States
This whole green scam is a massive “Ponzi Scheme”, it never pays for itself, but it will control every move you make with massive carbon taxes. It’s all about control !
Control and stupidity. Dumocrats are stupid and want total control and power over every aspect of our lives. The green new deal truly is a scam and is reminiscent of Eisenhower warning us of the industrial military complex taking over our country. We can’t even save ourselves, so why should we try to lead the way, with so many other countries laughing as they’re flipping us the bird on climate issues, by doing the opposite of what they’re supposed to be doing?
We’re shipping American coal to power them.
