Why Kerry s claim on solar and wind jobs misses the mark Print this article
John Kerry’s contention that coal miners can easily shift to building solar panels undersells the challenge the Biden administration faces with its plan to accelerate a transition away from fossil fuels. The same people can do those jobs, but the choice of doing the solar power one now is a better choice, Kerry said last week. What President Biden wants to do is make sure those folks have better choices, that they have alternatives.
Experts and analysts say the comments from Biden s climate envoy oversimplify the task at hand and provoke fossil fuel constituencies whose buy-in the administration needs. It doesn’t help that the fossil fuel industry and the unions that represent its workers have criticized Biden’s early moves, including his suspension of federal oil and gas leases and rejection of the Keystone XL pipeline.
