In recent months, the Chinese government has donated various components for the installation of photovoltaic parks (renewable energies based on sunlight) on the Caribbean island. The region’s climatic conditions make sunlight the most favorable source of renewable energy for the country.
Currently, more than 95% of the country’s power generation comes from fossil fuels, while only 5% comes from renewable sources. Cuba aims to generate up to 25% of its electric energy from renewable sources over the next five years. By 2050, the aim is to cover the entire energy matrix with electricity generation based on renewable energy sources.
i hope china can make this happen even faster
can you imagine the U.S. ruling class brain explosions at the thought of a socially progressive, solarpunk green socialist Cuba? backed with China’s soft power?

Really hoping they get into BRICS and it leads to a lot more of this.
They’re already an associate member/partner, but I’m not sure what the difference between that and full member is.
Searching is a pain on Lemmy but we had a short post on this the other day! https://lemmygrad.ml/post/6627580
Oh, I didn’t realize they’d been approved already. Awesome!

pretty sure they will get into BRICS
This is ackshually China doing an imperialism on both Cuba and the United States, since everyone knows that imperialism is when you keep other countries from doing imperialism. The poor smol bean American government must be given more freedom to do what it wants
Hell yeah, DO IT AGAIN AND MAKE IT BIGGER
This is the main reason why I support a Russian victory in Ukraine and a multipolar world, not that I’m a fan of Putin’s Russia, but a weakening of the most vicious and aggressive Imperialist power ever gives countries like Cuba, Venezuela, DPRK etc , some breathing room. Westoid leftists have the privilege of living in the safety from US Imperialism, so they can be “purists” and say Russia/China “Imperialism” is just as bad.
It doesn’t matter if Russia/China, especially Russia, is helping these countries out of solidarity, it might just be geopolitics, but it still benefits these countries from the devastating US sanctions.
exactly, it’s critical support all the way
Same.
Hey, I’m just doing what dems told me to do: support the lesser of two evils.
Went to Cuba last summer. Beautiful country, very safe all over Havana. The people were incredibly nice.
What the US has done and continues to do is absolutely indefensible.
Hopefully china can support Cuba more so an american backed counter revolution doesn’t work
Yay!!!
But at what cost???
