This is cope. Oil, gas, and coal are dead, and with them, America’s control over the global financial system, and its political hegemony.
America is actively ceding the future to China, and our ruling class have no ideas left other than looting the place as it’s burning to the ground.
China invested heavily into oil, gas, and coal for energy. Their coal use is still expanding, just like their big investments in solar, wind, and nuclear. https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/chinas-coal-power-ri...

> By 2025, coal accounted for approximately 54.6% of China's electricity generation
China became the manufacturing capital of the world because it doesn't have these regulations. It's time we caught up.
