The US must never threaten Iran again, the statement said, and must permanently end the war with Iran and its armed allies in the region. The US must lift the naval blockade of Iranian ports and withdraw its military from the area. It also must “completely compensate” Iran for war damage, lift sanctions and “unconditionally” release frozen assets.

    If you would have told me that one day Donald Trump would be one of the key figures to get out of fossil fuel I would have thought you’re crazy. It’s ridiculous.

    Since he loves awards so much, maybe Greta Thunberg should give him a “Award for the fight against Climate Change” medal. I just want to see his red face in that moment!

      Can’t say that when he’s boosting coal and having the government pay to cancel wind projects.

      I know you jest.

        Yes, I know :)

        Still, I see a big change in my country, now that fuel has become expensive. Suddenly everybody wants an electric vehicle and an electric heat pump and solar panels.

        What the heat waves and forrest fires could not manage the wallet at the gas stations did the trick.

        So in a way it’s all thanks to to the big red idiot in the white house. He accelerated the electrification and renewables of the planet, and I’m sure he’s hating it!

        He is also busy dismantling the US empire without the need of a 3rd world war.

        Those two conflict in a few points.
