Biden’s Energy Policies Favor China, Against Pittsburgh May 15, 2024 
COMMENTARY BY
Diana Furchtgott-Roth
 
Key Takeaways
The Biden administration is promulgating a series of rules requiring electric cars and trucks, electric stoves, and the use of renewables.

Beijing is taking a different approach. China has repeatedly stated that it has no intention of going along with the Western push to NetZero.

Biden’s rush to a green energy future will handcuff America to China, placing vital energy supply chains at the mercy of Beijing. But it doesn’t have to be this way
 
Countries around the world, especially America’s top adversary—the People’s Republic of China—are eager to replicate the success of Pittsburgh’s powerhouse energy industry. The Biden administration’s green agenda is helping them do just that, and at Pittsburgh’s expense.

In the name of fighting climate change and decarbonization, the Biden administration is promulgating a series of rules requiring electric cars and trucks, electric stoves, and the use of renewables such as wind turbines and solar panels.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
