True, it’s an investment firm though, their money comes from all over.

Not to mention most of the cost to the average consumer had been refunded via rebates and gst. It was only ever supposed to change the cost perception of carbon intensive products.

I actually caught that one too! I had it edited before I even read it.

China is making strides in cleaning up their grid, it is by no means perfect. They still depend on coal for about 55% of their grid based on the most recently available data I could find, that dropped about 3% last year thanks to their expanding solar network.

I do think our grid is much cleaner especially with our plans for new nuclear reactors. However we do not have the complex manufacturing network that China has.

In saying that we should expand domestic production to strengthen our economic resiliency, especially for needs like housing, food and transportation. This transition can’t be done quickly, doubly so if we’re looking to minimize ecological impact, so in my mind China remains a necessary strategic partner.

Edit: Fixed the statistic for coal use by China, the first source I used wildly underestimated it.

Ending imports from China is not realistic with our economic landscape but we absolutely need denser cities and mass transit.

Is this an LLM, I just cannot fathom these takes being unironic and if they are, please, please go outside.

This is the real issue, if I have to read another story like Guardaworld making Alligator Alcatraz I’m going to cut a bitch.

Canola as well.

This is treason and should be prosecuted. There is no justice until they are behind bars.

Reagan with relaxing corporate oversight and then Bush with the Patriot act and lastly Trump packing the Supreme Court really made a fascist’s utopia out of a system that barely had any accountability to start with.

Not to mention Citizen’s United.
