From the NYT
1,600 new coal-fired power plants are planned or under construction in 62 countries.
When China halted plans for more than 100 new coal-fired power plants this year, even as President Trump vowed to âbring back coalâ in America, the contrast seemed to confirm Beijingâs new role as a leader in the fight against climate change.
But new data on the worldâs biggest developers of coal-fired power plants paints a very different picture: Chinaâs energy companies will make up nearly half of the new coal generation expected to go online in the next decade.
These Chinese corporations are building or planning to build more than 700 new coal plants at home and around the world, some in countries that today burn little or no coal, according to tallies compiled by Urgewald, an environmental group based in Berlin. Many of the plants are in China, but by capacity, roughlyâŠ

EPA to launch Red Team/Blue Team program to evaluate climate scienceÂ
Posted: July 3, 2017 Filed under: Uncategorized 1 CommentExcellent. About time. Good move for “science”.
Interesting times ahead for US climate science, as the GWPF reports. It would be great to see Scott Pruitt include Ned Nikolov in this initiative, since his and Karlâs theory is about the only properly quantified alternative to the unproven radiative greenhouse hypothesis. Their theory successfully predicts surface temperatures across a range of planetary bodies, whereas the mainstream theory fails when it is applied to any other planet or moon apart from earth.
U.S. EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt is leading a formal initiative to challenge mainstream climate science using a âback-and-forth critiqueâ by government-recruited experts, according to a senior administration official.
The program will use âred team, blue teamâ exercises to conduct an âat-length evaluation of U.S. climate science,â the official said, referring to a concept developed by the military to identify vulnerabilities in field operations.
âThe administrator believes that we will be able to recruit the best in theâŠ
