China is the world's biggest emitter, but it's building wind and solar at a blistering pace. This is the wind and solar that is *under construction* there. China hit its target to build 1,200 gigawatts of renewables by 2030...6 years ahead of schedule. www.cnn.com/2024/11/18/c...

Got my hands on some fresh Rhodium data on IRA that shows why many Republicans don't want to kill Biden's climate law -- doing so would hurt their districts disproportionately. www.cnn.com/2024/11/15/c...
