India Helps Crush the Great Reset and `Green New Deal\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

April 6 (EIRNS) \u2013 In a second “No”, India\u2019s Energy Minister Raj Kumar Singh said at an IEA meeting on climate change that “net zero” carbon is “pie in the sky” no matter when you pledge it for. At a meeting supposed to be preparatory to the COP26 in Scotland in November, Singh said, “I would call it, and I\u2019m sorry to say this, but it is just pie in the sky. What we hear is that \u2026 2060 is far away and if the people emit at the rate they are emitting the world won\u2019t survive, so what are you going to do in the next five years\u2026. You have 800 million people who don\u2019t have access to electricity. You can\u2019t say that they have to go to net zero. They have the right to develop, they want to build skyscrapers and have a higher standard of living; you can\u2019t stop it.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

China\u2019s minister Zhang Jianhua also spoke at that IEA meeting, but when invited to a formal pre-meeting for COP26 \u2013 by the UK, remember, which is its host \u2013 China declined the invitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John Kerry, in Delhi for the same meeting, “happened to meet” Sergei Lavrov, who was in India on the world\u2019s real business (see separate report). Kerry was perhaps trying to gauge whether Russia would attend Joe Biden\u2019s April 22 “Earth” (or “dearth”) summit. But at the IEA meeting Kerry appeared to be criticizing long-term pledges to net zero carbon, like China\u2019s 2060 pledge. “Avoid the happy talk and recognize that this challenge is global”, Kerry chided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The real challenge is the power to develop, as Minister Singh made clear. The only power that can meet {that} global challenge is nuclear fission and, as soon as possible, fusion. (See BBC News article here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are blows against the royal family\u2019s “Green Deal” which can be amplified in the United States. Americans do have \u2018plentiful” electricity but a steadily increasing share of it doesn\u2019t work. In 2020 the percentage of companies which reported suffering blackout problems {every month} leaped from 20% in 2019 \u2013 already very high \u2013 to 44% in 2020. The FERC attributed this to the increasing share of “renewable” (interruptible) power sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This destroys an economy\u2019s productivity, exactly as described in EIR<\/em> Special Report and The LaRouche Organization\u2019s mass pamphlet, Great Leap Backward: LaRouche Crushes “Green New Deal” Fraud<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a sign of political pressure for nuclear rising, President Biden\u2019s “climate advisor” Gina McCarthy told press on April 2 that nuclear energy will be included in the Administration\u2019s so-called Clean Energy Standard, which is intended to be a requirement for electric power utilities and generators.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
