The energy sector's supply chain dependency on China is so huge that it makes breaking away from Beijing next to impossible, according to Christian Bruch.
I didn’t say anything if the sort. You’re understanding of how things work is wrong.
Imagine this. 10 factories in China that produce renewable goods for the entire world low enough that no other factories in the world can produce anything.
Or 10 factories in China. 10 in US, 10 in Europe. All producing renewables.
Currently there is not enough factories in china to supply the world. More needs to be built. Building them in the west doesn’t destroy the ones in China.

What’s better for the environment?
If we could magically create the infrastructure from thin air you’d definitely have a point.
But we’d have to wait years, maybe even decades to scale up
We can start that, but we can’t wait for it to be started.

So…
You agree with me that we should let people buy Chinese products while we build up our own infrastructure?
I’m just having trouble following you, your comments aren’t really consistent
I’m saying there needs to be demand for western products. Tariffs are a good way of doing that.
Africa, Asia and south America can still buy Chinese goods.
But it’s not just tariffs…
BYD electric cars can’t even be sold in America…
Because they’re not expensive enough.
Solar panels have flipped from banned to tariffs multiple times off the whims of American industries.
Don’t you find it hypocritical to criticize support of Israel for committing genocide, while advocating support of China who is committing genocide?
