Solar = Slavery: Wash Post warns of Chinese ‘forced labor’ in making solar panels – Solar industry now claims it will do ‘ethical sourcing’ in China
Steve Milloy of JunkScience: "Solar costs have been falling because of:
1. Coal burning in China
2. Slave labor in China
3. Taxpayer subsidies in the US."
"It will be forced to claim that it does 'ethical sourcing' in China." ... "Somebody is lying somewhere. WaPo reports 'nearly the entire supply of solar-grade polysilicon' depends on Xinjiang slave labor. But the US solar industry says less than $150 million of the $8 billion in solar panels imported in 2020 came from slave labor in China."
The solar industry is in deep trouble.
It will be forced to claim that it does 'ethical sourcing' in China.
This will be total BS.
Lying Communist China will just re-brand Xinjiang products as coming from other sources. pic.twitter.com/Z0vOw4zY3z

"China is… running its solar industry using forced labor linked to an ongoing genocide. That simply can’t be tolerated or ignored. We can’t save the planet by increasing the suffering of the world’s most vulnerable people."
