coal-plants-in-push-for-green-agenda/
The Biden Administration announced Saturday that the United States is
committed to phasing out coal power plants nationwide and not building new
ones as it moves ahead with its green agenda.
U.S. Special Envoy for Climate John Kerry announced at the annual United
Nations climate change summit in Dubai, called COP28, that America is
joining 56 other nations that comprise the Power Past Coal Alliance.
“We will be working to accelerate unabated coal phase-out across the
world, building stronger economies and more resilient communities,” Kerry
said in a statement.
“The first step is to stop making the problem worse: stop building new
unabated coal power plants.”
It’s unclear when existing U.S. coal plants would have to shut, but other
Biden regulatory actions and international commitments already in play
have targeted 2035 as a coal-free deadline.
As of October, roughly 20% of U.S. electricity was powered by coal,
according to the Department of Energy.
The amount of coal burned in the United States last year was less than
half what it was in 2008.

I'm not very good at politics but I always thought that big decisions that
affected all people in the US required a conversation, debate and vote.
What's a mandate? And how can this guy just declare his ideas, many of
which have no basis in reality when he's basically just a loud-mouthed
rich guy? And the other 300 million of have to agree?

We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that
stupid people won't be offended.
Durham Report: The FBI has an integrity problem. It has none.
No collusion - Special Counsel Robert Swan Mueller III, March 2019.
Officially made Nancy Pelosi a two-time impeachment loser.
Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden
fiasco, President Trump.
Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood
queer liberal democrat donors.
President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed
dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.
