Everything is made in China
It’s a good thing the West doesn’t have to manufacture any of this stuff. Imagine all of the emissions we can “delete” by having China make everything for us?
The picture shows a comparison of haze and sunny days in Liaoning, China. The two images were taken 10 days apart.
China also controls most of the rights to mining these metals and minerals, you want to guess HOW China managed to do this?
Simple; the West is so SLOOOOOOW at doing anything so by the time we’ve decided on something, China has gone ahead and built the item along with the factory to mass-produce the item to sell to us.
So is the West being deliberately slow? No. We’re slow because we’re led by a political generation of indoctrinated, inept cowards and it’s easy to be successful as a politician, when you’re also corrupt AF.
Without really noticing, we’ve handed the West over to China on a platter. If China decides to stop producing cheap watches, iPads and solar panels, do we have the equipment, skill or experience to make it ourselves? Nope. We’d have to start from scratch and it would be astronomically expensive.
We NOW have a chance to build our own SMR’s, with our OWN hands, as it were….yet once again the West is behaving like a petulant child about it. By the time we’ve finally accepted that we really ought to do it, China would have surpassed us….
…oh…wait….they already have. They’ve built a functioning SMR (Small Modular Reactor)……and they’re building the factory to mass-produce them. For us. The West, once the beacon of innovation and “go-get-them” has turned into a snivelling sap at the mercy of China.

NOTE China is building new COAL FIRED POWER STATIONS at an alarming rate. It is ironic that wind turbines for the proposed wind farm might well come from China, using steel from coal fires blast furnaces, and electricity from coal fired power stations, and they are opening new coal mines every year!!
China’s new coal power spree continues as more provinces jump on the bandwagon
