When I first read the titile, I thought that the US is going to have to build A LOT to triple global production. Then it occured to me that the author means the US is pledging to make deals and agreements which enable other countries to build their own. Sometimes I think the US thinks too much of itself and that’s also very much part of American branding.

Where are my renewable bros at? Tell me this is bad.

    🥱

    Does anyone actually take these decades-long pledges seriously?

      From a country that’s preventing shutdowns on the monthly, fuck no.

      Yeah a 20 year commitment when the next party will revert all progress means nothing.

      “I’m going to go to the gym three times a week until 2050!”

      Then compare the effort in going to the gym three times a week with the effort in tripling the world’s supply of nuclear power.

      Absolutely not and this is the shit that infuriates me about the Dems as a lefty. Too much lip service and not enough concrete action.

      If you ever criticize the president, someone will undoubtedly give a long list of similar ‘actions’ as accomplishments to claim that you’re foolish for the criticism.

        Exactly. Without a proper foundation these nuclear plants are never going to get off the ground. We need concrete action. We need trucks. We need aggregate. We need forms and rebar. We need a platform to base this power generation.
