Letter: Blame China for emissions

The U.S. is the largest polluter? It would help if people would do just a little investigation, maybe on Google.

They would find out that China has over 1,000 coal-fired plants (we have 250), and they are building 250 more; they are also building them all over the world: Africa, Egypt, South America, etc. Look it up; hundreds of them.

Under the Paris (it’s in France) Climate Accord, we have to start cutting CO2 now, and it will cost us trillions of dollars. We already cut it 14 percent, due to fracking, which Biden opposes. Brilliant. It was a smart move to exit that accord; same for the WHO. By the way, we’re now giving Biden $400,000 per year again! Genius.
