Coal has a hard time getting financied cuz itz 2x more expensive and its a old out dated technology. NINETY percent of all new electricity supply was by renewables in 2024. The government didnt end the coal industry. It got too expensive and inefficient to build which is what happens with old technology Theres no point in even debating you cuz youre just a moron. MAGATS think coal is more viable than solar lol. These morons @El_Conquistador would've been arguing against cars in favor of horses in the early 1900s.
Wow, you continue to amaze with your ignorance! You are very, very wrong yet again. Coal is the single largest source of electricity generation globally. https://elements.visualcapitalist.com/charted-coal-still-dominates-global-electricity-generation/ Coal generates around 34% of global electricity -- because in many locations it's the most cost-effective solution. In India and China, coal generates 73% and 58% of the countries' electricity, respectively. It's beyond dumb of you to think that coal is an energy from yesteryear. Because it's abundant, it's cheap, and it's easily transportable. But like most forms of energy, it's viability depends on the location. Places near natural gas will use natural gas. Places near desert sun will use solar. Places near rivers will use hydro. But coal remains the global king and the US is the Saudi Arabia of coal. Let's take advantage of this low cost resource and give Americans lower electricity bills. That's common sense. Coal is also exported, bringing wealth into this country by monetizing our abundant resources. You have a lot to learn about so many topics! You are not at my level at all. GOOD DAY
MAGAs in 1900- horses and buggy make up the large % of transportation around the world! We need to go to war with automobiles! Yeah no **** Coal makes up a large chunk of the electricity as it had a 50+ year head start. Look at new electricity growth and it's predominantly solar/wind. Literally going to war for coal in the year 2025 when climate change is at its worst Cost of coal per MW is 36-45$ Cost of solar per MW is 16-24$ Yeah sure coal is totally cheap and this isnt even taking into the health effect of coal
He's only spewing all his praise for the orange geezer to distract from the point of the thread title itself. Trump flat out spewed 5 bold lies about inflation to Americans this week. It's the usual protocol for him. Lie, deflect, distract, deceive, grift, golf, fundraise, do tit for tat favors that benefit him, repeat.
he is too busy EDUCATING but he forgets to learn something. I used to work with psych patients and when they start spewing out made up BS, we couldn't just say NO THATS NOT TRUE, OR HE IS NOT STANDING THERE. You had to say "I know the man in the suit is real to you...." @astros123, at the end of the day it's his reality. arguing with him using logic or facts is not going to help him. in his reality biden from start to finish had 9% inflation and the day after trump got into office, it went under 3%. no charts or graphs you show him will help him understand inflation was under 3% in april 2024 and now is on the rise. stop responding to him. it just encourages him. leave him be.
