While one wonders who is behind this document - Trump is a self professed black coal / carbon dioxide/ PM lover, the analysis provides an interesting view from which to prepare a realistic set of tables based on European prices of energy.

Not only is this table denominated in a fake currency (USD) (an over-valued currency given the massive balance of trade deficits the US incurs year in year out, and the 20 trillion debt (and growing) of the US gov) , using fake gas and oil prices (driven by fracking which is damaging to the environment), someone might use the column headings to produce a European version perhaps! Denominated in EUR or CHF, XAU, or even CNY!
