    As for the other side of the world in Indonesia, also wants to create its own green industries in Indonesia and therefore ban export of raw materials like nickel, bauxite, etc (all necessary for green industries) to prod green industry investments in Indonesia.

    bigger context:
    the us is in an arms race with both china and russia. the us real wages are going down while the debt is increasing. in contrast to afghanistan in '80s, the us has to spend much more on winning against russia in ukraine. the west will now create more inflation, more debts and probably raise more taxes for the sake of world domination and enormous subsidies.
    at the same time, china is growing economically, politically and militarily. the gulf states which are earning enormously on high oil and gas prices as well as china have started competing with the imf in lending money which means more influence for them. the eu is sinking and will thus be a much weaker partner of the us. if china doesn't go to war and waits, the us sanctions on china will backfire in the form of expensive products in the us and an enormous decrease in sales to china. the west wants a hot war with china because it is the only way it can win.

      - American automakers scarecly design models attractive to the broad European taste, but some make their way into the European market anyway, mostly SUV's and trucks. Crysler PT Cruiser, Voyager, and Crossfire for example are popular models. My favourite was the Crysler LeBaron.

    Green investments will go bad. Electric cars are practically useless and not an efficient consumption of energy. The batteries are not cost effective, are very heavy and expensive. Petroleum fuel is much more efficient in energy production. Windmills have severe limits. Solar panels can be useful but can also destroy the environment around them. With solar energy you have limitations caused by time of year and weather conditions and must once again use batteries for storage. I live in Texas, and we have tried it all. We use a mix of windmills (freeze up in our winters), solar (will not work on days without sun and must use batteries for storage). Oil is still the most efficient fuel for heat production and to run cars. Hydroelectric is great and used all over our country but during drought situations in the west (last 20 years here) can be less reliable.

      France got it's wish and has nuclear labeled as green tech, so investments are part of the sri. But there is no company in the world that currently offers nuclear reactors that can produce cheap electricity. The EPR reactors they are currently trying to build in France and UK, will produce energy that costs more than 25 cents/kwh, while onshore wind and pv can produce for 5 cents/kwh, even with battery storage for intermittent production, nuclear is more expensive.

    Using Solar and Wind Energies via battery storage will mean that we all have to switch to low voltage including mass transmission of electricity but this is not feasible during winter if you dun wanna depend of coal or woods burning but rather electric heater. Robust electric heaters are bigger and power on higher wattages.

    We should have invested this industry much earlier not to keep up with competing economies but to accelerate the transition towards more climate friendly future. It is going to benefit everyone by transitioning early or put it another way if we are slow to transition everyone is going to suffer through climate change and the people and their governments will be paying for the cost of this suffering in lives and economic damage. Investing in this industry isn't about fairness it's about having an insurance for the future. Yes we would be picking winners and influencing the market but in this case there is a urgency that I believe is more important.

    There is a symbiotic relationship between consumerism and industrialization. But clean energy and green transition are not intrinsic parts of this equation because reversing the climate digression does not generate income.
    One way of integrating environmental issues is by considering the climate as a commodity that has its own fungible and tradable value. And convincing customers that the most desirable commodity is the climate and that climate currency supersedes the value of any other commodity.

    • @Habib_Osman

      Climate is not the most desirable commodity, I'd say by a longshot. Individuals will never choose climate over money, being healthy and being able to choose aka freedom. If organisations don't force the populace, if governments don't bind climate importance into law, nothing would come of the green revolution. Climate is too far removed from the individual. Much further than health, purchasing power and freedom.

The sooner we realize that we can no longer take the environment for granted the better the chance of extending the habitation of humankind. The situation needs to deteriorate dramatically before such drastic steps are implemented. Imagine for a moment that every global citizen will have to pay a fee (a tax fee) for breathing, eating, and using anything that we derive from the earth and the atmosphere. We are paying governments for their administrative services but the environment is simply there to be used. We now realize that using the resources within our environment comes at a price.

    Electric cars produce significantly more greenhouse gases than fossil-fuel powered cars. This is because of the greenhouse gases produced in mining battery materials and manufacturing the large batteries that are linked to electric cars.
