President Biden’s<\/a> secretary of energy had an intense back-and-forth during a House Appropriations Subcommittee meeting on Friday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Department of Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm<\/a> defended her previous comments praising China’s environmental policy under interrogation by Chief Deputy Whip Guy Reschenthaler.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Secretary, on March 10, 2023, you said, “We can all learn from what China is doing”\u00a0\u2014\u00a0obviously about the environment,” Reschenthaler said in the hearing. “At the time you made that\u00a0comment, were you aware that 30 percent of the world\u2019s CO2 emissions came from China?”<\/p>\n

ENERGY SECRETARY GRANHOLM CLAIMS US CAN ‘LEARN FROM WHAT CHINA IS DOING’ ON CLIMATE CHANGE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“Oh, yes,” Granholm\u00a0answered.<\/p>\n

Granholm<\/a> claimed earlier this month that Americans can “learn from what China is doing” in combating climate change.<\/p>\n

During an interview at the annual SXSW conference<\/a> in Austin, Texas, Granholm sang the praises of China for its efforts to reduce climate change, claiming that the country is actually “very sensitive” about the issue, more so than the United States.<\/p>\n

Reschenthaler continued pressing the energy secretary on the extent of China’s emissions, the continued construction of coal power plants in the country, and its Paris Climate Accord-sanctioned ability to increase emissions until 2030.<\/p>\n

China<\/a> recently hit its coal-production record last year. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, “55% of China\u2019s energy” now comes from coal, “compared to 11% in the U.S.”<\/p>\n

Granholm\u00a0repeatedly clarified that she was aware of statistics on China’s impact on the global environment.<\/p>\n

“Knowing that you knew all that when you made the comment, would you like to retract your praise for China?” Reschenthaler\u00a0asked.<\/p>\n

“No, my praise for China was on what they are doing to invest in clean energy, even as they are the world\u2019s largest emitter,” Granholm\u00a0told the Pennsylvania representative.<\/p>\n

She added, “They are also the largest investor in clean energy technologies \u2014 they invest four times more than the United States.”<\/p>\n

Reschenthaler went on<\/a> to complain about comments Granholm\u00a0had made in October 2019, in which she said the U.S. does not have the “moral authority” to criticize Chinese climate policies.<\/p>\n

Granholm\u00a0clarified that she was not referring to China’s human rights abuses<\/a>, but only its energy policy.<\/p>\n

“You were still talking about the moral authority of the U.S. v. China,” Reschenthaler\u00a0replied.<\/p>\n

Granholm\u00a0accused Reschenthaler of taking her comments out of context.<\/p>\n
