Global Energy Shift: The US Decline and China's Renewable Rise

The article discusses the ongoing global transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy and the geopolitical consequences of this shift. It highlights how the United States, traditionally dominant in oil production, is struggling with political instability, fossil fuel lobbying, and climate policy rollbacks under President Trump, while China has heavily invested in renewable energy and electric vehicles, positioning itself as the emerging global leader. The recent conflict in Iran has temporarily benefited US oil companies financially, but it has also accelerated worldwide interest in energy independence and cleaner alternatives. Fossil fuel interests, backed by billionaires, are described as promoting disinformation, lobbying for subsidies, and supporting far-right groups to delay the energy transition. Meanwhile, extreme weather, rising global temperatures, and climate change pressures are making clean energy adoption increasingly urgent. California is cited as a leading example of successful renewable energy implementation, while China’s investments have created economic resilience and export opportunities in wind, solar, and batteries. The article warns that while fossil fuel forces may resist change violently, the overall trend favors renewables, energy independence, and a shift in geopolitical power from the US to China.

How Denmark's wind and solar investments shield it from global energy turmoil

The European Union’s climate commissioner has told the 27-country bloc that the only way out of energy crises fueled by the wars in Iran and Ukraine is homegrown energy, and that the EU must accelerate its transition away from fossil fuels. One country leading the charge towards green energy is Denmark. Special correspondent Malcolm Brabant reports for our series, Tipping Point.

Economy Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis: “What we were discussing in G7 [is] actually that now is not the time to roll back sanctions against Russia because #Russia is actually the country that is benefiting from the war in Iran and having substantial windfall profits due to the higher energy prices"

@theotherbrook Shows to go ya that art/mysticism/etc. deserve further removal from #RootInfrastructure, factual physics, of sustainable civilization.

This is why the Project 2025's, theocracies, etc., are destabilizing economies of scale, and deployed under historical successes of #DivideAndConquer strategies. #TechBros #Broligarchy, along with #FossilFuels abusers, are in the midst of a shakedown to squeeze as much as they can out of the masses, while they can.
