Democrat Climate Change Cult: Ban Everything!
Ministers from the Group of Seven (G7) nations have agreed to eliminate all coal-fired power plants by 2035.
The countries that are members of the Group of Seven (G7) are Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States, as well as the European Union.
This declaration was made by Andrew Bowie, a UK minister at the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, during an interview in Turing, Italy.
“We do have an agreement to phase out coal in the first half of the 2030s,” Bowie said.
“This is, by the way, a historic agreement, something that we weren’t able to achieve at COP28 in Dubai last year.”
“So, to have the G7 nations come around the table to send that signal to the world – that we, the advanced economies of the world are committed to phasing out coal by the early 2030s – is quite incredible,” he added.
Business Standard reported:
Italian diplomatic sources said a technical deal had been reached.
The accord will be included in the G7 energy ministers’ final communique to be released on Tuesday at the end of a two-day meeting in Turin.
One source told Reuters earlier that diplomats from the G7 nations – Italy, the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Canada and Japan – discussed the issue until late on Sunday, before the start of the ministerial gathering.
The agreement marks a significant step in the direction indicated last year by the COP28 United Nations climate summit for a transition away from fossil fuels, of which coal is the most polluting.
It helps accelerate the shift of investments from coal to clean technology in particular in Japan and more broadly in the whole Asian coal economy, including China and India,”

[The END is indeed near for the USA...]
[Some might say it’s terminal.]
“Idiocracy” - it was prophetic regarding the 2008 Presidential election.
Stupidity has been off the charts; especially since then.
Macron was tough on the protestors when they revolted against his pension reform law. So the French may have some backbone after all.
I’m stealing this.
Backbone, yes.
But usually for all the wrong things.
I think(?) this would be a first.
Please do - I borrowed from someone long ago
AOC is a perfect example of “Idiocracy” in action - unfortunately
Can someone please post the info graphic of USA coal fired steam turbine electricity generation? The exhaust from burning the coal gets recycled like three times to extract every bit of burn able fuel that there is in the coal. The efficiency is almost 100 percent and the emissions are almost ZERO.

Trump will undo this bullcrap.
Great, except China consumes more coal than every other Country combined. Great work G7, you made almost no difference again except destroy industries and jobs,
Amen.
Here in NY not far from where I live there was built a compressed gas power plant. (CPV Valley)
The idiots who successfully hounded Indian Point into getting shut down rallied against the CPV.
One idiot in particular held up two signs, one said to shut the plant down, the OTHER sign demanded everyone use all electric devices cars etc.
The disconnect between the signs never registered with him.
He also decided that he would jump into traffic in a 55 mph zone and was shocked when people squared their vehicle up on him and soed up.
How the hell are all the miggies getting free electric cars going to charge those POS? The Energizer Bunny?
Trump will tell them to GTH if he gets elected.
Pretty accurate.
Thank you
The young fools have no idea what future they’re building for themselves
They listen to Godless Leftist professors and the idiot Liberal Main Stream Media
‘Idiocracy’ in action yet again
Welcome.
Way too many of them really do believe that electricity just magically comes out of the wall outlet, any understanding beyond that is curtailed by unicorn fart dreams of “renewable energy” which they will fight against because “it’s an eyesore” or “it endangers wildlife”.
They have recently combined shutting down farms with repurposing the land for solar panels.
So they don’t want solar fields near them but they’re okay with entire farms being maliciously destroyed or outright confiscated (seen a few local greenies advocate that) for solar panel fields.
Oh, and many of them are vegans too.
Yeah, less farmland growing vegetables and the like, and vegan greenies rabidly shrieking to confiscate the land for solar panels.
I quit trying to make any sense of any of them long ago.
Under the old NDP (VERY Socialist party), about 10 years ago, ALL coal plants were converted to NG, at a cost of $BILLIONS CDN! Alberta has 30,000 YEARS of supply of GOOD coal and the plants had mostly state of the art anti-pollution equipment, to clean up emissions.
