Humans rejoiced in the convenience and cheapness of fossil fuels and covered the Earth with carbon dioxide fumes from burning those fuels.
That carbon dioxide acts like shaggy animal fur, preventing heat energy from the Earth from dissipating into space.
The temperature of our environment is rising, and the disasters caused by this heating are becoming more and more common.
China has produced cheap and best quality means to stop this warming of the Earth (electricity generation from solar and wind energy, batteries to store this energy and electric cars).
The whole world, except the West, buys those Chinese tools willingly. Western Europe is buying, but reluctantly.
In an attempt to please voters from American unions, US President Biden, who is not firmly in power, provided huge subsidies to manufacture those tools in America in competition with China.
The problem is that America and Western Europe do not have the personnel, infrastructure, or money to compete in this market.
If the market decided the course of this competition, all of Biden's subsidies would go to waste, as was already the case with Solyndra in the US. Many similar American companies are going to be bankrupt. To err is human, but it is not allowed to repeat the mistake.
Biden realized this too late. So to save his fur, he has imposed massive tariffs on goods from China to the US, cutting the US off from the world market, and is pressuring Western European countries to do the same.
Where will the Western European countries go? The extreme right is preventing the climate catastrophe problems from being solved by elites forcing the population to pay for expensive and poor quality goods from the US and Western Europe when the rest of the world is doing it for much less and better.
