We should have no merci for freeloaders such as the EU, India and China.

Coal is on the way out, it doesn't matter what trump says or Pruitt. Clean and renewable energy is where's its at.
He is as dumb as Trump, but I think they both know it, just wont admit it. They can't both be so stupid, or yes they can. God will take care of it is the GOP motto.
~1/3 of USA energy production comes from Coal. Way more than that over in China. It will be around for a while. Clean it up. Natural Gas or LNG is moving up. Are we against that Fossil fuel too? Only Solar and Wind are good? Wind don't blow when it is 95deg with 85% humidity. Who is going to AC the cooling centers for the elderly? Who is going to pick them up and bring them downtown? Horse and buggy?

In 2016, about 4.08 trillion kilowatthours (kWh) of electricity1 were generated at utility-scale facilities in the United States.2 About 65% of this electricity generation was from fossil fuels (coal, natural gas, petroleum, and other gases), about 20% was from nuclear energy, and about 15% was from renewable energy sources. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates that an additional 19 billion kWh (or about 0.02 trillion kWh) of electricity generation was from small-scale solar photovoltaic systems in 2016.3
Major energy sources and percent shares of U.S. electricity generation at utility-scale facilities in 2016
- Natural gas = 33.8%
- Coal = 30.4%
- Nuclear = 19.7%
- Renewables (total) = 14.9%
- Hydropower = 6.5%
- Wind = 5.6%
- Biomass = 1.5%
- Solar = 0.9%
- Geothermal = 0.4%
- Petroleum = 0.6%
- Other gases = 0.3%
- Other nonrenewable sources = 0.3%
- Pumped storage hydroelectricity = -0.2%4
Quit posting that lunatics' videos. That fucker is coming unhinged.
Meh! the orange ape would rather have America go it alone and thus miss out on a $19 trillion economy!!!!!We should have no merci for freeloaders such as the EU, India and China.
