The maximum carbon emissions that several leading green energy states could reduce would only counter a small amount of China’s expected increase in emissions, according to a report published by the John Locke Foundation.
The report assessed the costs of “decarbonizing” electricity production across every state, standardizing each state’s maximum possible reduction in carbon dioxide emissions relative to 2005 levels in terms of how many daily minutes of new Chinese emissions those reductions would offset. The report found that states with carbon-free electricity goals, including California, New York and Minnesota, would not make much impact relative to newly-generated Chinese carbon dioxide emissions.
While California, New York and Minnesota have committed to reaching 100% carbon-free energy production between 2040 and 2045, China permitted two coal plants on average in 2022, according to a report by the Center for Research on Energy and Clean Air. China’s de facto dictator, Xi Jinping, insinuated in July that the country would not be bound by external factors and agreements, such as the United Nations’ Paris Accords, when it comes to charting its energy future, according to the Heritage Foundation.

The report only looks at new Chinese emissions, excluding any potential increases in the emissions produced by developing countries in Asia, the Middle East and Africa.
“A state can destroy working power plants and impoverish and endanger its own citizens, but it won’t affect the world’s climate one bit,” Jon Sanders, director of the Center for Food, Power and Life for the John Locke Foundation and the report’s author, wrote. “It can’t.”
The offices of Democratic Govs. Kathy Hochul of New York, Tim Walz of Minnesota and Gavin Newsom of California all did not respond immediately to requests for comment.
Commentary:
Indeed, It appears those Blue Plantation State governors are blowing smoke up their tax-payers, while destroying their economies in the name of Climate Change.
This Big Lie is a drain on everything. There is NO SUCH THING as net zero carbon.
Its goal of these Democrat Socialists of America (CPUSA) is to wreck the America turning us into grubbing serfs in a Third World country.
It’s really about the revolution. Their Marxian revolution. Logic and reason don’t count because the logic and reason would be about whatever they’re seemingly trying to do. But what they’re really trying to do is advance the revolution, which means damaging society so society will accept whatever bullshit they come up with.
The idea is to tear down everything that exists and replace it with...I have no idea and they don’t either. It’s just that everything that They propose now will not and has not resulted in utopia. Therefore the first step to utopia is to eliminate everything that exists now.
