When I first read the titile, I thought that the US is going to have to build A LOT to triple global production. Then it occured to me that the author means the US is pledging to make deals and agreements which enable other countries to build their own. Sometimes I think the US thinks too much of itself and that's also very much part of American branding.

Where are my renewable bros at? Tell me this is bad.

Nuclear power is good imo. Batteries are not a viable solution to the intermittency problem of renewables, you need that baseload

It's not often I agree with you guys, but this is one of those times. If we're aiming to reduce out energy usage we are going to seriously limit ourselves for the future. We need lots of renewables with a strong baseload (nuclear), because energy usage is most likely only going to go up. Especially if we want to get into vertical, local farming and stuff like that.

Well you’ll never see it under capitalism, that’s for sure.
