L A Times Hypes "Green China" The World's Champ Of Global Coal Use & CO2 Emissions While Demanding U.S. Declare A "Climate Emergency"

The August 20th, 2023 Edition of the Sunday L A Times ridiculously juxtaposed two articles in this papers edition by hyping praise for China in its latest China Watch Section for its "Home on the Range" article headline addressing a "Green Push Benefits" project in a Mongolian Province as noted in the two photos shown below while also demanding in its Editorial Section that Biden declare a "Climate Emergency" for the U.S. as shown in the Times editorial below.

According to Energy Institute year 2022 data the U.S. has reduced its use of coal since 2005 by 57% while China increased its already dominate coal use by 58% during this same time period thus further establishing its title as the world's champion global coal burning nation by consuming 54.75 percent of all worldwide coal use.

The Times makes no mention of China's massive and growing use of coal which is far and away the dirtiest of all CO2 emissions energy consumption fuels.

This huge and still rapidly growing growth in coal use consumption accounts for why the non-OECD nations are responsible for over 66% of all year 2022 global CO2 emissions and why the U.S. reduced CO2 emissions since 2005 by over 1 billion metric tons while the non-OECD nations increased CO2 emissions by over 8.2 billion metric tons during this same period.

The L A Times conceals this readily available data regarding energy use consumption and emissions demonstrating its dishonesty, distortion, and deception in promoting massively costly and globally irrelevant efforts here in the U.S. that have no ability to control or meaningly change the worldwide energy and emissions outcomes as hyped in the Times feeble "Climate Emergency" propaganda trying to falsely support the need for such action.

Global energy and emissions data available for decades, as discussed above, clearly establishes the futility of the U.S. and other OECD nations flawed and failed attempts to drive world outcomes on global energy use and resulting emissions.

There is no scientific basis that supports the L A Times purely politically contrived and preposterous propaganda demand for a "Climate emergency" to be declared in the U.S. Such a clearly dishonest campaign would only damage the U.S. economy by hugely increasing energy prices and destroy energy reliability while allowing and in fact encouraging China and the other non-OECD nations to continue to further grow their massive use of coal and other fossil fuels while greatly increasing their already hugely dominate emissions.
