The Western world is going green, no matter the cost to the consumer. At the G7 meeting in Cornwall in June, those attending agreed to redouble their commitments to reducing CO2 emissions as rapidly as possible. For example, the United Kingdom promised there will be no more sales of new cars that use petrol or diesel after 2030. Renewable energy and electric cars are the future, and that future is almost upon us. In the 21st century, the green future that is being mapped out for the West will not be able to function without another precious substance: lithium. This industrial metal is light, it is an excellent conductor and it is essential for building electric car batteries. There is no alternative for it. Afghanistan has some of the world’s largest deposits of lithium, estimated to be worth between $1 trillion and $3 trillion. The bad news is that Joe Biden’s decision to pull American troops out of that country has unilaterally—and literally—handed all of the potential bound up in those lithium deposits to Chinese communists.

Biden has sold out the West and shook the hand of China. A Crazy Man.
