Excerpt:
Executive Orders in the United States are moving the country away from electric vehicles (EVs) and wind and solar electricity systems. Executive Orders issued by President Trump on January 20, 2025, ended the EV mandate, giving consumers back the power to choose the car they want to drive. Then, on July 7, 2025, an Executive Order ended taxpayer subsidies for “unreliable electricity sources like wind and solar.”
However, many regions of the world are continuing with the development of wind and solar electricity systems, including Canada, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and Australia.
Shockingly, the continued “green” movement outside the United States by the Green Energy Ideologues is bringing back the humanity and environmental atrocities associated with “Blood Diamonds.”
In 2017, Sky News explored the Congo cobalt mines, where miners, adults and children alike, were exploited. This video sheds light on the inhumane conditions where the miners worked, as well as the health issues that arise from exposure to dangerous chemicals.
Later, the Pulitzer Prize-nominated book Clean Energy Exploitations, published in 2021, describes the human atrocities among people living in poverty to enable wealthy countries to go “green.” This book discusses how unethical and immoral it is to financially encourage China and African nations to continue exploiting their people and inflicting environmental degradation, just so wealthy countries can go “green.”
Afterward, in 2024, an article was published in LifeSiteNews.com that first lists the purported benefits, made by the governments of various Western nations, of increased use of EVs and alternative electricity systems. These purported benefits include improvements to human livelihood and the environment. However, evidence from scientific articles suggests otherwise, where environmental destruction takes place during the mining of the required metals, the operation, and the decommissioning of EVs and wind and solar electricity systems. The article also discusses the unreliability and high costs of these technologies, as well as the use of child labor and the adverse health effects that result from the mining of the required metals for these technologies.
Have these human atrocities and environmental degradation in developing countries lessened since then? Unfortunately, the answer is “no.”
