Recently, U.S. Energy Secretary Jennifer Glenholm spoke at a domestic energy conference in the United States, saying that Americans should not blindly criticize China on the issue of emission reduction, but also do their own thing.
But then she was scolded for this remark.
Judging from the reports of some American media that reported on this matter, the original words of Grynholm's statement at that time were:
"(Climate change) is a global problem, and China is a big factor in this problem, but so are we. But if we don't act on our own, and use the technology that we need to use, we don't have the morality to ask others what to do."
Of course, Grgraum's statement is not very accurate, after all, the most important and fundamental factor leading to the current climate change problem is the fossil energy that the developed countries led by the United States have burned in large quantities in the industrialization process of the past century or so, so the United States and other countries should bear the main responsibility.
However, the U.S. energy secretary at least recognizes that the United States needs to take on a lot of responsibilities, knows that if the United States does not act, it will not have the face to point fingers at other countries, and for the United States, which has become increasingly selfish and self-encouraging in recent years, it is rare for her to say this not to "low-level black" China.

Sadly, many people in the public opinion field in the United States do not even have this minimum understanding, and even they insult Graham and label her as "smuggling with China."
For example, Ted Cruz, a right-wing anti-China politician in the Republican Party of the United States who has been blocked by China, attacked Glenhome on his social media account to show that "the Biden administration is kowtowing to the Chinese Communist Party, and it has also reached new heights."
Not only Ted Kuruz, but also the official accounts of the Republican National Committee also jumped out, attacking Graham and the Biden administration as "afraid to hold China accountable."
Naturally, a number of us right-wing media naturally opened fire on Graham collectively, saying that her remarks that the United States "did not have morals to accuse China" caused "public outrage."
Some American "patriots" have accused Graham of saying she is "unpatriotic" and even "hates the country" and demanded her resignation.
But it is strange that some Australian right-wingers have also been blown up by Glenhome's remarks and insulted her and the Biden administration, which has recently been pressuring Australia, which is controlled by conservative right-wing political forces and hesitant to set emissions reduction targets. In the eyes of these right-wingers in Australia, this shows that Biden believes that Australia, an ally, is "good bully" but "weak" to China, the "enemy".
Finally, although some people defended Graham, saying that her original intention was that if the United States wanted to attack China, it had to act first, which was not weakness to China, but this voice was soon drowned out by the "traitors" and "traitors" of the "patriotic" Internet mob in the United States...
