The stupid, it burns. This guy is US Secretary of Energy and blithely puts certifiably and grossly and embarrassingly incorrect statements on social media.

If you had a solar panel large enough to wrap around the entire earth and you used it, it would produce enough energy to power every electrical device ever created in perpetuity.

Meanwhile the fact is... Sahara Desert: Another calculation shows that covering a mere 1.2% of the Sahara Desert with solar panels would be enough to provide the planet's energy. Or a panel array the size of Spain would power the globe.

Stupidity is a job requirement directly beneath abject, blind loyalty to a boss who is morbidly stupid. One who will not permit anyone, anywhere, at any time, to appear or sound smarter than himself. Each minion acknowledges a self-fulfilling destiny of destroying knowledge for proximity to power.

Wind and solar provide a quarter of China's energy and they represent 27% of the world's consumption. It's almost like the US decided declaring bankruptcy would be superior to trying to compete.

They can't compete because as RFK Jr. says "we can't trust experts". As if trusting uneducated is somehow better. It's why they want to hurt the Chinese by any means necessary. If trade can't do it, they will use the military and with Chinese advances in tech, they can't wait too long.
