In addition to “climate change” and “green,” EERE forbid officials from using “emissions” to avoid the implication that they are a negative. Climate change is caused by rising greenhouse gas emissions, which is driven primarily by burning oil, coal and natural gas for energy.
Other terms officials must ditch include “energy transition,” “sustainability/sustainable,” “‘clean’ or ‘dirty’ energy,” “Carbon/CO2 ‘Footprint’” and “Tax breaks/tax credits/subsidies.”
I do genuinely wonder if America can survive this perfect storm of idiotic fascism.
We’ll survive. It’ll just be a shithole.
North Korea exists. It’s a shithole.
Sudan exists. It’s a shithole.
Iran exists. It’s a shithole.
We’re just gonna be another shithole.
Makes surviving not something one would envy tho
They haven’t had real dialog about real issues in 10 years. Time flies doesn’t it. It was dead the moment they entered the Trump era. This idiotic fascism era.
I don’t see how they’re bringing 1/3rd to 2/3rds the population back to reality. It was over when that half the country reneged on the social contract.
It’s pretty grim here.
The other day I watched Contagion, and it was so alien and comforting to see governmental organizations make a consistently rational response to a crisis, rather than they themselves manufacture the crisis.
