There are enormous geopolitical, economic and climate ramifications to the U.S. abandoning leadership on the energy transition. If you live in America, basically none of them are good.

Worst thing is those in power in the US think they’re actually winning , and the rest of the world (and actually most of the US) is just wrong!
I don’t think they think of it as winning. I don’t think they care.
All they know is that several states have economies dependent on fossil fuel extraction with no other meaningful economic replacement.
Some of them are winning. At this point the game is shifting to an internal fight between domestic oligarchs for power and therefore profit.

Aren’t they? There’s never been a time for a few can enrichment themselves so much through government, implement the most vile policies through government, ignore consequences, laws, and checks and balances through government. A few highly self-centered individuals are living out their most hateful dreams
Because idea of winning is different from the rest of sane people.
