U.S. Senator Introduces Draft of the "Clean Cloud Act," Demanding Emissions Reductions from Crypto Mining Companies

According to TheBlock, Democratic Senators Sheldon Whitehouse and John Fetterman have submitted a draft of the "2025 Clean Cloud Act" to the U.S. Senate, aiming to regulate the carbon emissions of cryptocurrency mining facilities and AI data centers, with the ultimate goal of imposing fines on facilities using non-renewable energy sources by 2035. The draft proposes amending the "Clean Air Act" to require data centers with an energy capacity exceeding 100 kilowatts to comply with regional emission limits specified in the Department of Energy's "National Transmission Demand Study." According to the draft, different regions will set their emission limits, which will be established by the end of 2025 and will decrease by 11% annually until reaching zero by 2035. Companies exceeding the limits will be required to pay fines adjusted for inflation based on the excess amount, and they are prohibited from passing the costs on to users. The fine funds will be used to alleviate the rising electricity costs for residents through grants to local governments and to support clean energy deployment.

German Chancellor-Elect: Trump's Tariffs Increase Financial Crisis Risk

German Chancellor-elect Merz stated that Trump's tariff policy has increased the risk of a financial crisis and advocated for a US-EU free trade agreement. He said: "I hope to achieve a new transatlantic free trade agreement that imposes zero tariffs on everything, which is good for both sides." The EU has proposed imposing "zero-for-zero" reciprocal tariffs on US industrial products. Trump told reporters on Monday that this proposal is not enough, suggesting that Europe should offset the tariffs by buying US energy. Merz said that if the US decides to completely withdraw from global trade, Europe will have to focus on non-US markets. Merz said: "Trump's policy is increasing the risk of the next financial crisis arriving early. We Europeans need to come up with persuasive countermeasures."
