Was surprised to not see a thread about this. Let's talk climate change, natural disasters, and how they may affect future policy.
Well first of all, zero climate cooperation should be done with the US.Was surprised to not see a thread about this. Let's talk climate change, natural disasters, and how they may affect future policy.

In addition, I would say that the aggressive greening policies of shutting down coal mines and quickly closing off coal plants have slightly backfired, which is why you see now an urgent emergency expansion of coal mining
As for climate change effects, China is in significant danger due to its major population centres being near the sea
Check the graphic below by CGTN. Please take into account that we will probably exceed the 2 C warming

@siegecrossbow could we rename this to Renewable Energy, Net Zero Technologies and Climate Change in China & Beyond? If so it will generate more interest and relevance. The current title name is very tired.
There's a lot to talk about from hydrogen to lithium batteries and small nuclear modular reactors SMRs as well as FSRUs.
Fuels cells are NOT energy SOURCE, they are energy carrier.... Talking about capacitors and batteries do nothing to solve the global energy crunch, the fact that high EROEI and easy to get primary energy sources are quickly diminishing against a backdrop of ever-growing human population and increasing energy use per capita for the developing world...Look you sound like a doomsayer. Isn't this why people are talking about hydrogen fuel cells, ammonia fuel cells, and PV plus storage?
It seems like you've just raised the white flag before the battle's begun.
By the way, tar sand flushing - you're trying to solve climate change by going deeper into unconventional oil sources??
Sure. You have things like wind and solar. You use energy carriers to store captured energy.Fuels cells are NOT energy SOURCE, they are energy carrier....
