China is leading in saving the earth. Well, yes, according to our former governor.
“U.S. Department of Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm claimed Friday that Americans can “learn from what China is doing in combating climate change.”
During an interview at the annual SXSW conference in Austin, Texas, Granholm sang the praises of China for its efforts to reduce climate change, claiming the country is actually “very sensitive” about the issue, more so than the United States.
Granholm made these claims, even though China recently hit its coal production record last year. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, “55% of China’s energy” now comes from coal “compared to 11% in the U.S.”
Earth to Secretary Granholm: That may be politically correct to say, but it is just plain stupid. For some reason our current government loves the Peoples Republic of China (PRC), the answer to why is open to debate. We know the Silicon Valley corporations are getting rich producing things in China and donating a portion of the billions they make to Democrats and to environmental groups to purchase their love and silence. The dirty little truth is that the PRC has us by the reproductive organs and can inflict great pain on our nation anytime they feel like it. We are dependent on China for damned near everything; if they cut off our antibiotics, tens of thousands would die in weeks, and that is just one area of concern.
China has moved its Goal Zero date four times; so far and no one ever holds them accountable, just the opposite. They are cheered every time they announce a new date for Goal Zero, pushing the date out 3 to 10 years every time. China has 3037 coal fired power plants and brings a new one onboard every three weeks. We have 244, and Secretary Granholm is singing China’s praises, saying we should look to them for leadership? She is a smart person, she can do the math, why is she so blind to the PRC massive pollution?
The origin of Covid-19 is being covered up by our government, classifying the information so as to not blame the good socialist brothers and sisters in China. Ask why the data is classified and you are a racist, science denier.
The spy balloon sent by China is still called a weather balloon or a “suspected” spy balloon according to NPR and many in our government and in the media; common sense is not so common in the progressive movement. Our government’s “outrage” lasted all of two weeks, careful not to anger their fellow socialists in China.
And what was found in the autopsy of the “shot down ‘weather balloon”? We were promised to know the findings — do you know them? Have you read about them? Have we asked? No, to even ask is racist. Open-source reports speak only in the broadest terms with no specifics. The best information on the Chinese spy aircraft comes from foreign media. And who destroyed the Nord Stream pipeline?
The PRC has paid off colleges and universities with grants as if they even need to; the woke progressives in our higher education system are ready, willing and eager to jump in bed with the PRC to foster the greater good of national socialism. China and Russia moving from communism to a socialist model in the 1990s was a great move applauded by the progressive media.
Now we know that the Russians and Chinese have paid off Robert Hunter Biden and Uncle James, giving them millions to “consult;” do people care? Apparently not. $20 million to the Biden family laundered through the Penn Biden center is not a problem, it will not influence the President; question that one and you are a Sinophobe.
Back to Secretary Granholm’s gushing praise for China and her holding them up as an example to emulated for combating climate change. Many of the most polluted places on the planet are in China, where people are dying from respiratory diseases at a high rate, much higher than our nation, but we need to follow the Chinese socialist climate change model; really?
Normed for population, China uses more greenhouse gas producing energy than we do. China produces 2.5 times the greenhouse gases we do, but we must emulate them? China sets goals that sound great, but they never meet them, never, but who cares? Do as we say not do as we do; China’s goals are exceptional, according to our former governor, as is China. My opinion.
