Like the canard that mortgage companies, like Quicken Loans discriminates against blacks through redlining, there is no there there. This article from the Oregonian is typical of the view of our supposedly color blind government on how they view programs ostensibly to help the disadvantaged.

The US hasn't built a new coal plant in years and US CO2 production is declining largely due to fracking and the replacement of coal as a baseload electric plant by natural gas and combined cycle natural gas electric plants. But the American hating greens still continue to insist that the US ignore the basic requirement of baseload electric production and dream of us freezing in the dark when the sun doesn't shine and the wind doesn't blow. The problem is the chicoms and their use of dirty coal plants, but the greens, just like leftards are opposed to the truth of where the chicom crud came from, and continue to ignore China. You would think that there would be a huge environmental movement to deny China the Olympics, but no - just kowtow to the commies.
Global Coal Power Demand On Track For Record As Green Energy Transition Crumbles
BY TYLER DURDEN FRIDAY, DEC 17, 2021 - 06:30 PM There's no question that the 'greenification' of the global economy has returned many industrial countries to coal in 2021. New data from the International Energy Agency (IEA) shows that the amount of electricity generated worldwide from coal is on track to hit a record high.
IEA's Coal 2021 report says global power generation from coal soared 9% in 2021 to an all-time high of 10,350 terawatt-hours. The rebound comes amid a rash of green policies and stupid political choices, such as decommissioning oil and gas-fired power plants and fossil fuel exploitation projects, ironically resulting in an energy crisis worldwide.
"The rebound is being driven by this year's rapid economic recovery, which has pushed up electricity demand much faster than low-carbon supplies can keep up," IEA said. Also, the dramatic rise in natural gas prices forced power plants to source coal as a cheaper alternative.
Overall coal demand, including energy-intensive industries such as cement and steel, is expected to increase 6% this year. Though it shouldn't surpass the record consumption levels of 2013/2014, IEA said. It added coal demand could hit a new record high in 2022.
IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol said the increase was "a worrying sign of how far off track the world is in its efforts to put emissions into decline towards net zero."
The IEA said that China is responsible for half of the coal-fired power generation worldwide and will increase by 9% year-on-year increase.
"The pledges to reach net zero emissions made by many countries, including China and India, should have very strong implications for coal – but these are not yet visible in our near-term forecast, reflecting the major gap between ambitions and action," said Keisuke Sadamori, Director of Energy Markets and Security at the IEA.

He likes the Kamala Harris that is giving him free shit. Other than the perscription drug issue, everything she mentioned was a local issue. Public transportation sucks in part because members of her and his party refuse to enforce the fucking law and allow criminals to run rampant on public transportation systems because arresting people who violate the law would piss off jackasses like Charlamagne.
A group of teens, including one wielding a hammer, beat up a 67-year-old man after a confrontation that started on a Brooklyn bus, according to video and the NYPD.
How often do you think Charlamagne tha Fraud says any about this?
Was at two stores last week with a "Masks Recommended" notice taped to the door. No one was wearing a mask. Of course, if someone wanted to, they were free to do so. One side promotes freedom and the other promotes fascism. But Trump was an authoritarian although no one ever says why. Even if you ask them. Repeatedly.

To be fair in Texas places still have the mask signs up collecting dust

I love the conversion to slang & ghetto-talk when she's talking to a black interviewer.
As inauthentic as Hillary talking about her hot sauce and saying "I'm too tired......"
Fuck these Scam Artists.
