All of us should lead this fight, chrissakes.
No doubt. But this is about the options still left on the table.
The majority of humanity desires to be under the boot of a supreme leader and are unwilling to put in the energy to learn about the world around them and make their own decisions.
Our species are getting what we deserve
The majority of humanity doesn’t have a choice, or at least believes they don’t have one. It’s not about their desires and perceiving that as the problem poisons you
The majority just had to take one fucking hour out of one fucking day to not vote in a fascist.
We either want a boot on our neck or don’t care. Fuck off with your empathy for apathy.
America has abdicated its role, and that role will be filled
As far as I know China is not only the largest economy or about on par with the US, but has also made huge strides in renewables, so this makes sense actually, much as we are not used to hearing international bodies inviting China to lead. I would go as far as saying this is a case of China already leading the world - at least at home, not sure how clean or energy-efficient their offshore projects are.
China is huge. They work a lot on green energy, but on the other hand they don’t care about opening a new coal plant each week.
We shouldn’t be giving them credit when their green initiatives are mostly just greenwashing and capitalistic in nature.
Adam Tooze just gave an address in Zurich and talks about this very question… apparently China is very well aware of this issue and is currently “working on it”
much as we are not used to hearing international bodies inviting China to lead.
There is much you don’t hear about China because it doesn’t fit the official narrative, and much you do hear which is distorted and/or unsubstantiated and/or simply untrue from western corporate media.
I’m sure there won’t be any financial impact from the largest global manufacturer converting their means of production to renewable energy sources.
Way to “stick it to China,” Trump.
Haven’t they already been? The US talks good but then doesn’t follow through. Didn’t China actually put up record numbers of wind and solar fields?
