    It looks like President Biden does not support illegal immigration.

        Special Climate Envoy to the USA John Kerry acknowledges that the USA cannot by itself reverse climate change in the world.

        However, nor can the USA no longer afford a repeat of the last four years of shrugging off it's responsibilities to the planet. The USA spends 100s $M per year, every year on climate disaster within its borders.

        Under President Biden there is a core mission to fight climate change with all of its powers while at the same time creating 100k s of new climate jobs for Americans.

        Trying to redirect the conversation that there is nothing that the USA can do because it is everyone else's fault will not work anymore.

          Climate Change is horse hockey.
          We were told in the 70s that the ice caps were melting.. 2 years later the ice caps were bigger than 2 years previous.
          Then it was the earth will over heat in 2 yrs.. that turned out false.
          The Climate change people were living fat and happy, due to the ignorance of the general population.
          @AOC now says the world as we know it will not be around in 12years.. Greta says the same, I think both of them are autistic. Well at least one of them for sure is.

            It appears to me that every single time the USA has a problem (according to dems), the only way to repair the problem is to raise taxes. The latest line being trotted out by democrats is that "climate change" is the "Civil Rights" issue of our time.


            BTW: Heard AOC speaking yesterday and she said that the attack on the Capital Building was the new 9/11. Get the fuck outta here. It's hard for me to believe anything they say. Ridiculous.

              I also read an article yesterday that said Joe Biden's claim that electric cars will create new jobs is not only untrue but the opposite is true.

              Here's the deal. New electric cars will be replacing older cars so there will be no net gain in the number of cars produced. That's true.


              Here's the kicker: Electric cars will be easier to produce so that means the car companies will need less workers which will mean a net loss for workers hired.


              PS - It takes hours to recharge a car. I can fill my tank up in a few minutes. How's this gonna work? I can see lines as far as the eye can see at the recharging stations.

                          Why China Is Dominating the Solar Industry

                          Between 2008 and 2013, China's solar-electric panel industry dropped world prices by 80 percent

                              Son, do you ever research anything? Here's a good left wing site that will tell you all you need to know. Enjoy the read:



                              The Solar-Powered Future Is Being Assembled in China


                              The solar supply chain is punishingly cheap, and Longi dominates it like no one else.

                              By Bloomberg News

                              September 14, 2020, 4:00 PM



                              On a recent morning in central China, workers in blue jumpsuits and white masks placed clamps around a bar of shiny metal and fed it into a powerful cutting machine. The bar was an ingot made of polysilicon, a heavily refined cousin of the same material that makes up sand. Inside the cutter, it was sliced into thousands of small squares slightly larger than a CD case and thinner than a thumbnail. These wafers would then be shipped on to other factories to be infused with conductive elements such as phosphorous and boron, then wired into cells and assembled into panels—the base unit of solar energy generation.

                              The owner of this factory, Longi Green Energy Technology Co., is the world’s largest producer of solar wafers and the world’s largest solar company by market value. As of the end of last year it created about 1 of every 4 wafers made anywhere on the planet, and since then it’s announced at least five projects to expand its factories or build new ones. Despite a pandemic that may slow the growth of new solar power installations for the first time in decades, Longi expects its production capacity by the end of 2020 to have increased by two-thirds compared with 2019.


                              Longi and the other Chinese companies that dominate solar—collectively they control at least 60% of global capacity for every step in the supply chain—are playing a risky game. The short history of the solar industry is a tale of repeated boom and bust, with abrupt technological and policy developments rendering multibillion​-dollar investments obsolete. Industry leaders one day have, again and again, become bankruptcy filers the next.


                              The bet in China is that this time is different. Plunging costs have left solar the cheapest form of energy in parts of the world. Subsidies are disappearing as it becomes more competitive with other forms of electric generation, making demand less dependent on political decisions. And advances in energy storage are opening a tantalizing possibility: that solar could, in the near future, replace fossil fuels in many places. “We believe the solar market will maintain the trend of rapid growth,” says Li Zhenguo, Longi’s
                              billionaire president. A physicist by training, he founded the company in 2000, naming it for a university principal who’d impressed Li with his academic rigor. “Current global production capacity, including Longi’s, is nowhere near enough to meet the coming demand.”



                              Longi dates to a time when Chinese solar manufacturers were relying primarily on cheap labor to undercut more established players from the U.S. and Europe. That strategy can collapse once wages rise, as they have in China. But, in Li’s telling, Longi was focused on coming up with a product that could compete in the longer term.






                              That aim led the company to make a momentous choice early on. There are two ways to make the blocks that solar wafers are sliced from: by cooling molten silicon into one homogeneous structure or encouraging it to crystallize from different points. The first approach, known as mono-crystalline, provides greater conductivity and efficiency. But it’s more expensive than multi-crystalline products, which most manufacturers favored in their efforts to compete with cheap fossil fuel generation.
