The Obama admin, with VP Joe Biden along for the ride, really didn’t do much, other than signing the non-binding Paris Climate Agreement and jacking up CAFE standards, eh? Oh, a push for hybrids and EVs, but, both Joe and Barack took lots and lots of fossil fueled trips, and Obama had to be shamed into putting solar panels back on the roof of the White House. But, Joe totally Believes
Tomlinson: Only one presidential candidate is serious about climate change
“It’ll start getting cooler. You just watch.”
President Donald Trump summed up his global warming mitigation strategy in just seven words, spoken days before the rest of the world kicks off Climate Week on Monday.
So, really, this is mostly about whining about Trump, eh? As for Climate Week, I’m pretty darned informed as to what is going on with the Cult of Climastrology, and have never heard this, nor do I see other climate realists mentioning. Or Warmists. If it’s so important, why does no one seem to know about it? Anyhow, after lots of TDS, finally we get Handsy Joe
Democratic challenger Joe Biden is indisputably more committed to burning less fossil fuel and using nature’s limitless energy from the sun and wind. What’s up for debate is how fast he’ll move and whether he can rally public support to succeed.
Biden suffers from the moderate’s curse, buffeted by impatient environmental activists on the left and middle-class workers worried about jobs and energy costs to his right. No policy will be without winners and losers. (snip)
Biden has an actual energy policy to use available lower-carbon resources until he can rally Americans to spend trillions of dollars to put people back to work building an advanced energy grid. One promises life support for dying industries, while one wishes to move forward pragmatically.
Of course, if you do not believe the climate is changing, or that humans can do anything to slow it, then your choice is only slightly more difficult. The United States can either lead the world in energy innovation or fall inextricably behind, which is not much of a choice if you care about the country’s future.
Joe’s plan is what? To force the peasants to buy $35K and up EVs or ride the bus/train? Bike to work? Walk like it’s 1780? Make the energy situation in the country like California, with rolling planned and unplanned blackouts and brownouts? It’s not really much of a plan, just platitudes
(Breitbart) During a town hall on CNN on Thursday, 2020 Democratic presidential nominee former Vice President Joe Biden said that he doesn’t think that the Green New Deal is “too much†but that he has his “own deal†that he has laid out.
Biden was asked by a participant in the town hall, “Are you a firm supporter of the Green New Deal, and how [will you] make sure our communities are protected?â€
Biden responded, “I have laid out in detail what I’ll do.â€
After Biden discussed his plan and ambitions, host Anderson Cooper asked, “Let me just jump in though, she was asking about the Green New Deal. Do you back that or do you think it’s too much?â€
Biden responded, “I don’t think it’s too much. I have my own deal. I’ve laid it out in great detail. The Democratic Party’s adopted it as a platform.â€
When will Joe lead the way and give up his own use of fossil fuels and make all the other Democrats do the same?
