This Administration seems not to comprehend the real need for the Developing World to utilize the earth's cheapest, most plentiful sources of energy to lift them into modernity - cheap electricity, heat, transportation, agriculture, maybe even the internet.

Out in the non-oblivious world,...
After Mr. Kerry’s many trips to Beijing and his earnest pleas for cooperation on climate, the Chinese government announced a 42% increase in the production of coal-based electric generation.
India is even more aggressive. According to the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air: “Three non-captive coal plant expansions (3.9 gigawatts, or GW) received permits in the first five months of 2023 alone, up from zero the year before, as well as seven other coal plant proposals (7.6 GW) also moving forward in the permitting process by receiving Terms of Reference, and two additional coal plants (2.9 GW) appeared under consideration for the first time this year. …
“India has an estimated 65.3 GW of proposed, on-grid coal capacity under active development: 30.4 GW under construction and 34.9 GW in pre-construction (14.4 GW permitted, 11.8 GW pre-permit, and 8.8 GW announced). This capacity represents nearly a third of the country’s operational on-grid, non-export coal capacity (212.5 GW).”
Other countries expanding their coal-based electric generation include Indonesia, Bangladesh, Turkey, Vietnam, Mongolia and Laos.
So seriously, what sense does it make for Americans to be forced to buy electric cars and trucks, to turn down their thermostats in Winter and turn them up in Summer? Why should we pay more for auto fuel, with the President's Administration doing everything it can to make oil production more difficult and expensive?
John Kerry makes U.S. look delusional on the world stage
John Kerry is crazy. This is not hyperbole or exaggeration.
