> Why isn't bringing manufacturing jobs back home part of the "green" strategy?
It often is. Then you have the coal/gas lobbies fighting against it, as well as any and every politician whose constituency includes jobs in these industries. Germany used to subsidise solar, then it stopped, which wiped out the solar industry in Germany overnight. It's no different in the US. This isn't a problem with environmentalism, it's a problem with nascent industries fighting change with tooth and nail. And paying the media to convince people like you that it's the environmentalists' fault.
Do you even remember what the infrastructure bill recently in the US even did to invest in green energy and manufacturing/jobs for green energy?
Stop falling for it. Stop falling for the lies and propaganda. There are people trying to make real change for the better, and they're not the ones fighting against green energy. Why aren't you able to recognize it?
