I know, we all have big fancy mansions, I've got 8 myself--actually 2, fleets of jets--I don't have any, even more cars--I've only got one, and we are asking you peasants to stop driving and rid the bus all while we still expect you to kiss our ever loving elitist ass. That said, reducing ones carbon foot print has an upside too. Driving fuel efficient cars means you have to pay for less gasoline. The use of solar panels reduces your electric bill plus with solar there is generally state rebates and the federal ITC which; in some cases drive the purchase cost to near zero. If everyone were to do, just a little--like fly commercial instead of the personal jet--such (savings) would lead to a phase transition of new savings, spending, and investment from new sources all across the nation; but I doubt your clients would be interested in making money that way would you. Typical conservative argument--always tying to cling to the status quo instead of looking forward for new and better possibilities...

Redundant building, from your story.

But, due to the country’s slowing power demand growth and rapid expansion of clean energy, demand for power generated from coal has been falling since 2013, rendering roughly 200,000-300,000MW of capacity redundant at 2015 demand levels.
Yet China has another 200,000MW of coal-fired capacity under construction, and a new Greenpeace analysis has identified a further 150,000MW of projects potentially able to enter construction — despite recent suspensions.
The coal power overcapacity crisis has continued to grow in 2016, with total power generation from coal falling by 4% in the first five months of 2016, another 25 large coal-fired plants brought online, and capacity utilisation falling by another 10% from the record-low levels in 2015.

Maybe George is siding with me, did you ever consider that eagle? As for who controls America--it's who ever controls the electoral college and that's who controls this country...

And I have to ask you--don't you ever get tired of all the various conspiracy theories that you believe in. Christ, if not for a computer how could you keep up with all of it? I mean, this thing with Trump has just about got me warn out and you've got a complete Rolodex of conspiracies and I've just got the one...
