What is each candidate’s announced energy agenda for the USA?

@JimboSaturn And windmills causing cancer—from that very same “stable genius” who told the American public to inject bleach!

@KunsanVeteran One of his "no one knows more about.. insert subject... than me!"

@JimboSaturn I vividly remember him spewing nonsense that people should be injected with bleach to cure COVID.

What did the Apricot Antichrist do as soon as he developed COVID—got monoclonal antibodies flown to the White House as emergency treatment then exposed his entire Secret Service detail to the virus.

Here's facts you were never told.

In the early 20th century it was known that coal polluted and made lots of waste. By 1935 Henry Ford and Albert Kingsley a coal magnate began using the leftover hardwoods from making cars and the particulates from the coal plant to create the charcoal briquette industry, and the soot collected from the chimneys, burned carbon aka coke, in the iron mills to turn cast iron into steel. By 1949 almost all smoke emissions was put through misting stacks to avoid losing that precious commodity. Further improvements obtained materials that help the extraction of non ferrous ores like magnesium and aluminium which also don't get wasted.

Coal plants stopped polluting by 98% in the late 80s.

About a third of the US power grid burns that clean. Coal is the fuel. 10% uses wood in the northeast where there's around a billion trees. 30% is nuclear and about 30% runs natural gas.

Wind farms and solar can only be used in temperate climates efficiently because of ice and snow and insufficient daylight from solar sources to make the cost of electrical production profitable. Also the longevity of solar panels and wind generation equipment is only about 20 years and only if very well maintained at a huge expense. Also because those electrical power generation methods don't supply power 24 hrs a day, the other plants can't simply switch on/ switch off. A typical nuc power plant takes about a day and a half to start up and stabilize with gas and coal taking even longer.

There is much more but I thought you might be receptive to hearing a few facts.

@SteelHands Coal releases more radioactivity into the environment than nuclear. Coal releases vast quantities of CO2 which was known to be a greenhouse gas long before Ford and Kingsley.

Wind and solar are now cheaper than coal anyway.

The problems that the US has with base load are principally because the grid is so poorly interconnected. With better interconnections excess solar and wind can be sold to more distant consumers. The wind is always blowing somewhere in the US and the Eastern seaboard noon day sun can be sold to the west just as California can sell it to the east.
