Well, no doubt our haughty superiors in the EU are all on board with this as displayed in the article. How dare the poor countries try to electrify their way out of poverty. The nerve. Somehow I think john f'n kohn-heinz-kerry and his haughty attitude is in favor of this as well.

Leftists literally lay awake in bed all night, every night, thinking of new clever and underhanded ways to advance their agenda.

We are often behind the curve, because we actually have lives.

The warmists have discovered a way. Make insurance for power stations and coal mines unavailable, thereby making the risk of building or operating them unacceptable. That can be accomplished by getting the highly concentrated business of reinsurance to reject coal facilities.

A play right out of the gun banners' playbook.

A lot of the commie-green types are of the opinion that the USA uses way far too much of the Earth’s resources and the poverty nations should not use any more than they already are. In other words, back to the Stone Age for just about everyone.

However, coal is declining in usage because of the enormous expense of cleaning up emissions from coal burning. That's why American expansion of natural gas supplies is a huge boon because we will have way lower air pollution due to the far lower cost of cleaning up emissions from burning natural gas.

Why do you think China wants to start importing natural from Russia soon? That will allow them to finally phase out the use of coal in electric power generation, which means way cleaner cities.

Just as they did to the NRA.

We are going to have to deal with this one way or another.

This looks to be a strategy to keep the non white world in poverty.It must be a crafty racist tactic of the vile NAZI Trump.

You would think that if CO2 was high enough to be a danger that it would put fires out.

That can be accomplished by getting the highly concentrated business of reinsurance to reject coal facilities.

If this is referring to the American economy, it'll be interesting to see if this plan works. The government ought to be working to create a truly competitive environment for these types of markets.

Should there be a competitive market, there will be no problem.

There is also the possibility of self-insuring companies. Of course that'll raise rates a bit, but the pay off will be the availability of coal.

I really despise the cultural elites who refuse to allow the poor to have abundant energy sources.
