No, because the people who like renewable energy are the same ones who are either:
A. Already voting for him
OR
B. Saying "It's not enough!" and using that as a justification to usher fascism into power.

You forgot C: Won't even hear about it because it doesn't involve Trump spouting coprophilic glossolalia and we lack the attention span to understand what's happening
Will Trump's wanton destruction of the planet lose him votes?
No. The answer is no
This is the best summary I could come up with:
It is hoped the project will revitalise a corner of the US whose glory days seemed over.And it's due in no small part to someone many of the residents of this Republican district would rather not credit - Joe Biden.The president's landmark 2022 Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) – his signature green legislation - offered hundreds of billions of dollars in tax incentives, credits and loans to stimulate American manufacturing in clean energy.
The IRA is in Donald Trump’s sights.If Republican lawmakers win big in the Congressional elections that are also taking place on 5 November, then portions of President Biden’s signature climate law could be repealed, threatening a clean energy boom happening in their communities across the US.I sat down for coffee with Kasey Carpenter, Dalton’s Republican member in the Georgia House of Representatives.
We met at Oakwood Café, the bustling diner he owns along with a string of other local businesses, including a pizza joint and a boutique hotel.Mr Carpenter downplayed the potential impact on Qcells of manufacturing tax credits being rolled back.
The predicted figure for the US is $315bn.US Trade Representative Katherine Tai said last year that she hoped the US’s increased spending on renewable energy would help address the “significant distortion” in the global economy caused by China.
The aim is also to deny China any more of an opening into the US renewables market.And these massive green investments are being channelled by the Biden White House, very purposefully, into so-called red states – those that usually vote Republican.
The hope is to create a manufacturing revival before November’s presidential election.For those who work in the Qcells' factory, the opportunity has been life-changing.Robots patrol the shop floor where solar cells are being packaged into panels.
The original article contains 1,039 words, the summary contains 289 words. Saved 72%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Who is Will Biden?
Don't care as long as he replaces Joe Biden on the November ticket.
Crazy how when legislation passes, it's Biden...
But when we want Biden to do something, he can't, because presidents can't do legislation...
Almost like he just takes credit for what progressives fight to accomplish.
No, nobody cares about green jobs.
sadly there's been no green job developments anywhere near my rural area, a lone solar sales office closed down recently.
yes please give us more low paying not enough to cover housing and food factory jobs
Wages not tracking with costs and inflation is certainly a problem; corporate America and, specifically, Wall Street investors reaping the most benefits from growth is a cancerous tumor that will sink the country if not fixed. However, trade jobs are essential to the country. Not everyone gets their mommy to but them a car and pay for their degree. Not everyone wants to go to college, get a white collar job, and sit in a cubicle for the rest of their lives.
If you're not getting paid enough, Unionize.
