The Biden administration’s climate czar, John Kerry, recently took a trip to China to beg for their cooperation on ineffective, job-killing climate policies. However, it was a complete failure as he was laughed out of the country by the communist regime.

Despite Kerry’s repeated attempts to justify the use of slave labor in China to produce so-called “green energy” products, the Chinese government is not interested in playing along with Biden’s radical agenda.
Kerry’s trip to Beijing was a complete disaster. He failed to secure any agreement from the communist regime on further actions to reduce carbon emissions. The fact is, it is going to take a lot more than Kerry’s empty platitudes to persuade China to turn away from its massively polluting industries. In fact, China is responsible for nearly 30 percent of emissions on the planet, so they need to be more responsible with their environmental policies.
Kerry’s efforts to convince the Chinese to adopt Biden’s climate change policies were met with complete ridicule. The communist regime knows that Biden’s policies will be devastating to their economy, and they have no interest in going along with it. Kerry’s insistence on using slave labor in China to produce solar panels and other “green energy” products only shows how out of touch he is. The use of forced labor has no place in any industry, and it is appalling that Kerry would try to justify it.
Let’s be clear: the Biden administration’s climate policies will have disastrous consequences for jobs and the economy. They will lead to skyrocketing energy prices and hurt small businesses across the country. China knows this, and that is why they are not interested in playing along with Kerry’s nonsense. While climate change is certainly an issue that we need to address, we cannot do so by destroying our own economy and putting Americans out of work.
The Biden administration needs to wake up and realize that their radical climate policies are not going to work. They need to stop trying to force other countries to go along with their agenda and start focusing on policies that will actually benefit the American people. Climate change is a global issue, and we need to work together to find solutions that work for everyone. But that will never happen as long as we continue down the path of radical environmentalism.
