As has been noted, Donald Trump’s war on Iran has already done more to promote clean energy than any Democratic president ever could have imagined. The spike in oil prices and the enormous uncertainty created by Trump and Netanyahu’s attack have spurred households and businesses around the world to put the shift to electic vehicles (EVs) and clean energy on hyperdrive. China’s exports of EVs are more than double their 2025 pace. Similarly, sales of solar panels and wind turbines are going through the roof. Trump may be blocking the transition in the United States, but the rest of the world is going full speed ahead.
