OMG, someon buy the US a clue. The US constantly uses the excuse that we can’t meet climate goals because China burns too much coal, and now when China becomes the world’s largest clean energy producer they still complain.

The best thing we could do for the steelworkers, and the whole rest of the planet, is to have massive investment in clean energy in the US.

Kirsten Gillibrand joined the United Steelworkers in urging the Obama administration to investigate China’s subsidies of clean energy projects, which are alleged to violate international trade rules. She also requested a meeting with the Chinese Ambassador to discuss these accusations.
