These last decades of infighting here, of the GOP being beholden to the oil industry, or anti science nonsense. All of it allowed China to dominate energy for the next 100 years. China is manufacturing the world's wind turbines, the world's solar panels, and they're developing new technology like this.

It didn't have to be like this, the US should be the world leader in green technology.
