China’s unwavering commitment to coal is a bucket of cold water over green global visions | The Hill



Last year, there was a 38 percent increase in new coal-fired generating capacity under development in China. That translates to about 366 gigawatts of new coal generation.


As long as China shows no sign whatsoever of reducing its dependence on coal or its carbon footprint, it is useless for lawmakers and regulators in developed countries to torture their own citizens by restricting their access to affordable energy.

That would take away the enjoyment of the regulators and some lawmakers.

It's the basis for why I keep saying "we" need to be honest and realistic about all of this stuff.  But "we're" not.

In Northern Ohio, the temps have been pleasantly below normal. I have only had the AC on a couple of days this summer.
Jesus.  It's been unbearably hot here since early June.  I can't even imagine a world where you are only running the AC a few days in summer.  We run ours day and night, between 72-76 deg F.  It's 102 outside today.

She's making enough for both of you to. And her private jet she pokes holes in the ozone along with Kerryis faster than your camero..... or golf cart

I have wondered how sincere she is, or if she was at first and fell in love with her 15 minutes, and then sold out.  Or her parents did.

Awful what's happening in Maui. Lahaina looks devastated.
