    How much are fossil fuels subsidized in the US?
    According to the IMF, fossil fuel subsidies equal $662 billion annually rather than the EIA's $3.2 billion. To put it in perspective, this is comparable to the defense budget-the largest spending item Congress votes on each year.15 Sept 2023

      That's a BS number. It's partially some poor countries who subsidize food and energy in general so the government doesn't get overthrown. The rest is almost all IMPLIED subsidies, calculated by guessing how much disease is caused by pollution and then assigning all of that cost to fossil fuels.
      In the US, there are NO fossil fuel subsidies, at least none that the CEOs, accountants, and investors are aware of.

    87% of the 'subsidies' according to that report in 2023 was just sales tax exemption (actually reduction, there's still a lot of taxes, probably more than America's).
    So much bs. Reducing taxes is just not sucking it dry and that's all. If you sell millions of EVs per year, ofc you're gonna get an astronomical figure of 'subsidies' because of lower tax rates than before.
    And the article says $0 rebates per vehicle in 2023 - compared to $7,500 per EV rebate in the USA, and that the total is from 2007-2023. How much did USA spend on GM alone during the financial crisis? $50 billion?

    I find it incredible that other states' incompetence in making the switch to green technologies can be used against China. It is the only state that is taking this paradigm shift seriously. I wanted for many years to be able to buy a Tesla here in Brazil. Today I no longer have that desire, despite being a Tesla shareholder, because I know that Chinese cars compete on equal terms with Tesla and they are interested in the market in my country. Very different from Tesla, which never intended to compete in the market here. And if the Chinese state helps to make access to this type of technology cheaper, which will improve everyone's quality of life, I just have to thank them for that

    Thousands of agricultural workers are dealing with the aftermath of a “downpour that lasted a week” in El Salvador and other parts of Central America last month, the Inter Press Service reported. The region “suffers almost year after year from the onslaught of extreme rains or prolonged droughts”, the outlet said. One cattle rancher from El Salvador told the outlet that his herd declined from 150 to 40 in recent years due to heavy rainfall and other extremes. Meanwhile, the Guardian looked at the impact of drought on farmers in the Italian island of Sicily, where “the desert is encroaching” and rainfall has dropped by more than 40% since 2003.

      Yes, that is despicable and entirely out of whack with the climate agreements that all of these counties have signed up to.
      Protectionism and right wing libertarianism/oligarchy are having a good run in many parts of Europe at the moment but even progressive parties seem inclined towards protectionism because key European industries are thought to be in danger of losing their competitive edge over China. Still, if you present Europe with a clear example of how it is possible to achieve technological leadership in the EV industry while rapidly advancing towards internationally agreed climate objectives (by moving to low/no carbon energy generation, e.g. solar and wind, at great speed and by supporting the emergence of a strong EV industrial sector) then Europeans evidently are more likely to throw champagne in your face than to listen and learn from an upstart country like China which has indeed i) successfully built an EV industrial sector ii) while simultaneously growing solar and wind generation all across the country and iii) making good progress on climate commitments. And what is the lesson to be learned? Provide the level of credit necessary to get the job done. Support industry to get the job done. Actively discourage through penalties and other strong regulatory measues deviant behaviour that is looking to preserve rather than lay to rest old and obsolete industries. Insist on recovery of support from businesses that have been beneficiaries of state support but only after these businesses can stand on their own feet unsupported. That works unlike what Europe is doing.

    The global economy is $104 trillion with about 40% comprised of North America and the EU. Even with tariffs, that leaves about 60% of the world where Chinese EVs can be sold. Among the opportunities is India, the nation with the largest population. It, like China, has an air pollution problem.

    Subsidies are the way of the governments of the world to boost their most economically productive industrial sectors. Historically American industries and corporations have not been held accountable for the broader societal costs (environmental impacts, health impacts, asthma, cancer, lung disease, lifespan reduction, disasters, climate impacts) of their activities. If this were fully accounted for in economic terms (e.g., monetized), many industries would likely appear much less economically productive, reducing government motivation for subsidies. Sadly, in cases like Germany, and possibly America, subsidies from economically productive industries with less societal costs, like electric vehicles, are eliminated or under attack, while the much larger subsidies of petroleum companies and ICE vehicle manufacturers are being quietly maintained.

    In 2023, China initiated construction on 70.2 GW of new coal-power capacity, almost 20 times more than the rest of the world's 3.7 GW.

    Europe and the USA could do the same thing as China, “invest heavily” in the future. But instead Saudi Arabia is saving Lucid, Tesla is going at it alone, AMZN and VW is saving Rivian and GM is the leader of the EV race globally (in name only….at least they got something from the govt even if it’s just a cool name)….and the Apple car would have been the perfect platform for govts to incentivize that R&D effort

    @nerdbikes3841 Před měsícem +4

    The biggest reason the US is falling behind is from a lot of Americans themselves. The overwhelming feeling of entitlement and grievance from the big anti-EV crowd means that China is free to run wild with battery and motor development with only competition from individual firms like Tesla, Rivian and Lucid. As a result, EV prices remain high with the ironic assistance of keeping oil/gas prices artificially low. The EV threat has caused the oil industry to cap their own prices for fear of driving consumer demand towards EVs. Americans themselves have much to think about while China produces battery evolution after evolution while the US development is years behind.

    prc is a 'managed' state. in principle, the management is charged with providing a decent life for its members. lately, the central committee has supported xjp, believing he is the best manager prc has available.
    this underlying principle may result in subsidizing car production. but prc had an air quality problem, and e-cars have contributed to the cure.

Most of it comes from the airport and industry. Just look at China. Their conversion to EVs has yet to improve their air quality.
    I wish someone would report on the news how much converting to EVs in China has cleaned up their air. Our local utility tells me that NG power plants are the way to go instead of solar and wind.

To clean up the air in China or as part of an overall strategy of taking over the world economically? The economy is what funds the military. Weaken Western economies and help China's, what happens? EV's are just one of many tools for doing that.

    But the good thing is that EV sales are stagnating anyway, they have built up an enormous overcapacity for a niche market (outside of China) and most of the Chinese car makers will go bankrupt. The Chinese market itself will be saturated soon too. And they are selling the cars for a huge loss anyway, despite all the subsidies. Pure madness...

      Ultimately, all such arguments are based on the belief that CO2-caused climate change will impose no costs because it doesn't exist. In reality, as Covid and 9/11 proved, our socioeconomic systems are fantastically vunerable to changes and small acts. Just for one tiny example, insurance companies' expenses are skyrocketing and if you deny climate change, you have no explanation for how to stop it. Real estate is already a bubble everywhere; if people will have to relocate inland everyone will be fighting for every square inch there. The entire state of Florida relies on water wells which will be contaminated with salt water long before the cities drown.
      These are all costs, but we've normalized them out of existence so that they won't be compared to the cost of subsidized decarbonization.
