Just about the worst energy source America has by the standards of power density are biofuels, things like corn-based ethanol. Biofuels only provide less than 3% of America\u2019s energy needs\u2013and yet, because of the amount of corn that has to be grown to produce it \u2026 they require more land than every other energy source in the country combined. Lots of resources going in, not much energy coming out\u2013which means they\u2019re never going to be able to be a serious fuel source.\u00a0 Moreover, it cannibalizes arable land needed for food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz told Breitbart News exclusively of how President Donald Trump and his cabinet rallied at the 11th hour to thwart globalists from creating a \u201cglobal green tax\u201d that he argued would have created a \u201cU.N. climate slush fund.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":121246920,"featured_media":411743,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","advanced_seo_description":"Discover how U.S. officials thwarted a global carbon tax that could have impacted shipping costs and the American economy.","jetpack_seo_html_title":"How Trump Stopped the Global Carbon Tax in Shipping","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[691839329,691839331,691839330,691818849,691839332,691824938],"class_list":["post-411731","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-global-green-tax","tag-first-u-n-tax-in-global-history","tag-global-shipping-fleet","tag-green-new-deal","tag-u-s-ambassador-to-the-united-nations-mike-waltz","tag-united-nations-un-climate","fallback-thumbnail"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/0AQNJgfaTijNuXkjGy14g1kN2slZzTa4XBzqAlgSmR4u4ox3bcOGUDYnCnZMuHw15JOye29DgsWy3swjMfFTgGSlUCKPU9pjCamBIALVgihCbSDhdAxy69Xb4BMLSI14T-1.jpeg?fit=1724%2C899&ssl=1","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/paxLW1-1J6P","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":408978,"url":"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?p=408978","url_meta":{"origin":411731,"position":0},"title":"US President Trump blocked global shipping carbon tax plan, delays vote by a year","author":"uwe.roland.gross","date":"10\/18\/2025","format":false,"excerpt":"The United States won its last-ditch effort to block an international carbon tax on the shipping industry, delaying a vote on the proposal by one full year.","rel":"","context":"In \"European Union (EU)\"","block_context":{"text":"European Union (EU)","link":"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?tag=european-union-eu"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AQNoP8WZ8fTvxVASowlgoN-4pQAHV7NViA7XKCyGYAttuDmcVkwLbZDYp7MjybA85JM9VJYqS3cNRMoKBLMCYzJmauI5OapnLJzUgEZT-2zcPVDui4mWUB6Zrv81S6w.jpeg?fit=1200%2C626&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AQNoP8WZ8fTvxVASowlgoN-4pQAHV7NViA7XKCyGYAttuDmcVkwLbZDYp7MjybA85JM9VJYqS3cNRMoKBLMCYzJmauI5OapnLJzUgEZT-2zcPVDui4mWUB6Zrv81S6w.jpeg?fit=1200%2C626&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AQNoP8WZ8fTvxVASowlgoN-4pQAHV7NViA7XKCyGYAttuDmcVkwLbZDYp7MjybA85JM9VJYqS3cNRMoKBLMCYzJmauI5OapnLJzUgEZT-2zcPVDui4mWUB6Zrv81S6w.jpeg?fit=1200%2C626&ssl=1&resize=525%2C300 1.5x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AQNoP8WZ8fTvxVASowlgoN-4pQAHV7NViA7XKCyGYAttuDmcVkwLbZDYp7MjybA85JM9VJYqS3cNRMoKBLMCYzJmauI5OapnLJzUgEZT-2zcPVDui4mWUB6Zrv81S6w.jpeg?fit=1200%2C626&ssl=1&resize=700%2C400 2x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/AQNoP8WZ8fTvxVASowlgoN-4pQAHV7NViA7XKCyGYAttuDmcVkwLbZDYp7MjybA85JM9VJYqS3cNRMoKBLMCYzJmauI5OapnLJzUgEZT-2zcPVDui4mWUB6Zrv81S6w.jpeg?fit=1200%2C626&ssl=1&resize=1050%2C600 3x"},"classes":[]},{"id":408801,"url":"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?p=408801","url_meta":{"origin":411731,"position":1},"title":"The Global Climate Tax is Here \u2014 The Climate Realism Show\u00a0#178","author":"uwe.roland.gross","date":"10\/17\/2025","format":false,"excerpt":"On Episode #178 of The Climate Realism Show, we\u2019ll dig into this disturbing and likely illegal UN power grab and cover the week\u2019s Crazy Climate News.
