Trump's Embrace of Dirty Fuel Empowers Iran

[schmidlap]

​

Clean energy technologies have become a significant part of China's economy​

​

This includes nearly $1.9 trillion in green sales and investments, which is comparable to the size of these industries in several major economies. The clean energy sector encompasses renewables, nuclear power, electricity grids, energy storage, energy efficiency, electric vehicles, and railways. This sector has overtaken several other major sectors​

The scientifically-ignorant incompetent''s surrender of global dominion to China in the ever-growing clean energy technology market is an economic defeat for the United States that will endure, but it also weaponizes the resilient, ultra-conservative regime in Iran,

Gas prices are expected to rise significantly in 2026 due to several factors. The Iran conflict and the threat to supply flowing through the Strait of Hormuz are major drivers of this increase. ​

​

Semiconductor manufacturers heavily rely on helium to prevent certain chemical reactions in production, Gottwald said. MRIs also need helium to cool the magnets the machines need to function. Welding is also heavily reliant on helium. Meanwhile, party balloons account for about 10 to 20 percent of the market.​

​

Interruptions or price spikes to semiconductor manufacturing could hit global markets for everything from computers to smartphones to vehicles to medical equipment.​

​

“A lot of the world doesn’t run without semiconductors and you can’t make semiconductors without helium, period,” Gottwald said. “That will probably add pressure from a political perspective from all different countries around the world.”​

​

The losses are already beginning to mount.​

“Dirty fuel”?


Green energy is a scam. The world needs oil.

The dogma you spout ignores reality.

Science deniers worship Trump as the U.S surrenders the expanding global market for clean fuel technology to China.

The degenerate geezer assures Iran of continuing leverage

Heavy and extra-heavy, and sour crude oil is refined into many things we use daily.....If you drove on asphalt today you drove on just one type of product that can come from Venezuelan crude.

Venezuela’s oil is predominantly heavy, extra-heavy crude, often sour, with low API gravity and high sulfur content.

OP is dumb.

Retarded. Other sources of energy are welcomed, but they aren’t going to replace oil.

Do you have any idea how much rare materials are needed to for EV batteries? There isn’t enough lithium and cobalt to replace every US car even if we wanted to. But simpletons like you don’t know anything about the energy industry. Look how many Solar and wing farms have gone tits up. It’s because it is far more expensive than our long trusted sources of power, like nuclear, coal, and hydro.

I've never understood how the right can hate Islam so much but at the same time they want to shower Islamic countries in riches by making sure those countries are the most important places in the world

Some ideologues can't handle the overwhelming amount of corroborative data compiled and analyzed by climatologists.

(I also respect medical expertise over ideological dogma that conflicts with it.)

Trump's surrender of the global market to China is unfortunate economically, and in terms of international influence :

China's solar and wind technology exports have become a significant part of its global energy strategy. The country has positioned itself as a leader in clean technology exports, particularly in solar panels, batteries, and electric vehicles. In 2024, China exported $120 billion in green technology, which was $30 billion higher than the US's oil and gas exports. This trend reflects China's growing role as a technology supplier, especially in emerging markets, where solar and wind technologies are increasingly adopted. ​

China is grifting off the idiots buying into Solar. If anyone is enriching them, it’s useful idiots like you.

As if you don’t use oil. LOL. You people are such muppets.

Aren't the Chinese still building coal-fired energy plants, and burning coal imported from the U.S.?
