we HAVE OIL, OUR OWN OIL....he won't let us get it, he sends millions of barrels to China and this all hurts us even more.

Wikipedia is a piss poor source.The Costly Contradictions of Biden’s Crusade for Green Energy
I am beginning to believe that some here are challenging Biden’s green energy because they are either a Republicon or just like taking sides for the fun of it.
‘Here in the real world, intelligent people realize fossil fuels are finite. Hopefully, the perpetuation of humans is not.
There is an urgent need to find alternatives before panic begins to encircle our planet.
Biden’s team is aware of this and is trying to make the needed changes before it is too late.
It is just that simple.
The Chinese know this.
Just Google “Chinese renewable energy”
China is the world's leading country in electricity production from renewable energy sources, with over triple the generation of the second-ranking country, the United States. China's renewable energy sector is growing faster than its fossil fuels and nuclear power capacity, and is expected to contribute 43 percent of global renewable capacity growth. China's total renewable energy capacity exceeded 1,000GW in 2021, accounting for 43.5 per cent of the country's total power generation capacity,

~~~~~~You plug your car into an outlet and your car produces zero emissions. Compare this all to the fossil fuels used to actually pump oil, refine it, transport it across the ocean and then only to eventually lose 70% of it coming out of your tailpipe. All this gets thrown back into the atmosphere. Electric cars don't require any of that, it's infinitely cleaner in comparison to oil. It's not even remotely close.
Australia provides half the world's lithium, and yet their biggest pollutant is from car emissions. If lithium mining was so "dirty" then Australia would look the trash heap that is India or worse. Mining quarries destroys the ground and rock around the area where the lithium is mined but it's nowhere near as dirty as pumping, extracting, refining and transporting oil, or the enviromental disasters you get from spills. How does that not register in your brain?
Nuclear is "clean" until you have to store the waste, which never goes away. You can't keep storing barrels and barrels of nuclear waste underground forever. Also, it wasn't even that long ago that Chernobyl threatened to poison all of Europe and possibly the world with nuclear radiation. The last disaster we had was just 12 years ago. We are literally one meltdown away from a global disaster we can't come back from. Sure, it's "clean," all we have to do is risk the planet and most of humanity.
Nuclear power and coal are the leaders in China.
Fossil fuel is finite. Are the current rate of consumption all the oil will be sucked up and burned. What do we do then-?Funny, you start at plugging into your EV.
You should be begin at the generation point, where fossil fuel and their by-products are used to turn the turbines to create the electricity
Oil is not the only source of lubricants, lubricate the gears, shafts and bearings.

Summary Table as of 2017
Oil Reserves
1,650,585,140,000 barrels
Oil Consumption
35,442,913,090
barrels per year
97,103,871 barrels per day
Reserves/Consumption
47 (years left)
World Oil Statistics - Worldometer
(Data shown in the table is for 2016. Counter shows current estimate.)
I am bewildered to watch people jump up and down to create renewables because of climate change when at the same time oil reserves are running out too.
I find it ironic that both goals have the same end in mind.
Oil is not the only source of lubricants

Here is a bit of news about China that you seem to be unaware of----
China's latest energy megaprojects show that coal is really on the way out
Leanna Garfield - May. 9, 2018
China's latest energy megaprojects show that coal is really on the way out
"....To improve the country's air quality, the Chinese government vows to spend at least $360 billion on clean energy projects and create 13 million new renewable energy jobs by 2020.
China's latest energy megaprojects — two giant solar farms in Anhui, one of which will go online in May —
In late 2017, the country built a massive floating solar farm on top of a former coal mine
China is already one of the world's biggest investors in alternative energy sources like solar, wind, and hydropower.
China is one of the biggest countries to make a significant move Away from coal. Last year, the country Cancelled 104 new coal plants that were in development across 13 provinces.*

As I have stated before, fossil fuels are finite, and the human race needs to find alternatives.Go back to google and type, "china new coal plants".
solar panels and wind turbines are finite.As I have stated before, fossil fuels are finite, and the human race needs to find alternatives.
That does not mean we should stop using coal during the transition phase.
Or so it seems to me
