like who cares? let USA die if they want, not a problem for the rest of the world. When you start a war, don't expect others to help you.

[–] spicehoarder@lemmy.zip 11 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Climate change is everyone's problem.

[–] roserose56@lemmy.zip 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (2 children)

Not anymore. It's only problem for the rest of the world. If MR president does not like it, then they won't get perks like wind farms.
They normalized pedophilia, and now they normalizing wars, at some point people are this is fine, lets wait mid terms, right? They don't care about climate change. Just watch some NBA this week and see how people care.

[–] Honytawk@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 6 days ago

Sure, cause hurricanes stop at the border

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 5 days ago

are you serious?

[–] BanMe@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Yeah but the climate change wars will not go the way the Americans think they will. It'll topple itself by sheer virtue of its geographic size once the real shit hits the fan, and the former allies will be there with puppet warlords ready to carve up the interior.

Is how I'm putting that in my "looking for in retirement" section of the ol' Grindr profile

[–] rabber@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 days ago (2 children)

It's a problem for Canada lmao

[–] Earthman_Jim@lemmy.zip 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Yes and no. It opens up a lot of land and minerals to us, we're just not so morally bankrupt as to want to take advantage and encourage it like some demented orange fucks, and given the way Americans have been over the last while, Canadians will do what it takes and unify to protect our borders from the little American tribes that squabble below us in the divided oblast.

Folks closer to the equator are truly fucked. Say bye bye to Jabba's Palace ie Mar-A-Lago, not that Donald the Demented will be around much longer anyway.

It’s a problem for Canada lmao

Canada stands for it self, and last time I saw the news, Ontario was threatening to cut power to the US. How is this a problem to Canada?
Also Elbows Up!

[–] rabber@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 days ago

US is like 75 percent of our trade

[–] Honytawk@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Accept.

Then use the money to build an even bigger solar farm.

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 days ago

It's contingent on building fossil fuel plants.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 5 days ago

So hold on, doesn't this mean that companies can just threaten to build wind turbines and get a bunch of bribes? Any sensible businessman would immediately spin up 500 companies to do this as fast as possible.

[–] rollerbang@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

Instead, TotalEnergies will now spend the money on the development of a new liquified natural gas plant in Texas that will help export US LNG overseas to Europe, CEO Patrick Pouyanné said in a statement.

[–] flandish@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

What a windy jerk.

[–] flandish@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago

Phew! Good! This WAR has Taught me the LAST thing I want my Tax Dollars going towards is Energy that our Enemies DONT Control!

-Republicans!

Usas economy relies on other countries use of oil.

USA is going to collapse once the world wakes up to the fact it's being played out like a Mafia controlled neighborhood.

[–] krisevol@lemmus.org 32 points 1 week ago (8 children)

They rely on other countries using the Petrodollar, not buying oil. Once other countries move to another currency America will go bankrupt, and that isn't speculation, it's very much reality. America is doing everything to stop this.

It won't work though, the talk have already started happening. Americans better get used to the a lower standard is living because it's going to be impossible to increase moving standards under the current debt.

[–] MousePotatoDoesStuff@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

And moving away from oil is a good way to move away from the petrodollar, too. (Not to mention better for our future.)

Hey, if we all club together we could get through the first few stages of getting our own windfarm approved and then Trump could pay us a billion to cancel and we all walk away with a share.

Who's in?

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 64 points 1 week ago (6 children)

And then build it anyways.

[–] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 days ago

You take the billion bucks, fold the company, start a new company, and build more windmills!

[–] ThePantser@sh.itjust.works 34 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (4 children)

Well yea, that's what we need the billion for. It's the AI startup model.

This is beyond stupidity.

China will be decades ahead in energy with these moronic decisions and eventually that’s also proportional to AI scalability.

it's about the offshore view from his golf course. self-serving scumbag. needs oil platforms

[–] kerrigan778@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 6 days ago

As a huge metal fan I love this but as a wind power fan I regret to inform you those aren't made of metal, they're composite, metal is weigh too heavy and expensive.

The Trump administration announced it will pay nearly $1 billion to French energy giant TotalEnergies in exchange for the company abandoning plans to build offshore wind farms in the Atlantic Ocean and instead pursue fossil fuel projects in the US.

I would like to throw my hat in the ring and say that I will not build a wind farm for a mere $500M

[–] Skankhunt420@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 days ago

shit, I won't do it if they call it square on my medical bills.

I'm a cheap date.

Again the ever quixotic Don tilts at windmills! Onward, Rocinante!
