Biden unveils economy-wide pledge to cut greenhouse gas emissions by up to 52% by 2030
Axios ^ | April 22, 2021 | Andrew Freedman

Posted on 04/22/2021 7:35:33 AM PDT by C19fan

The Biden administration is moving to address global warming by setting a new, economy-wide greenhouse gas emissions reduction target of 50% to 52% below 2005 levels by 2030.

Why it matters: The new, non-binding target is about twice as ambitious as the previous U.S. target of a 26% to 28% cut by 2025, which was set during the Obama administration. White House officials described the goal as ambitious but achievable during a call with reporters Tuesday night.

I’m putting solar onto my house to reduce my power bill before Biden jacks it up in the name of saving us from our sins.

Biden should pledge to eliminate the number one cause of Climate Change. The Sun.

While he is at it, he should pledge to eliminate the number one greenhouse gas: DiHydrogen Oxide.

This substance is also known as H2O, or water, a toxic pollutant.

Biden will likely have died of old age by 2030 so he won’t be here to take the blame for crashing the economy but he can still get “good boy points” for passing the legislation now.
If people actually cared about the environment they could just tariff goods from polluting countries (china and india).

... to solve a problem that doesn’t really exist.

The "problem" DOES exist: the Earth's climate is changing, as it does cyclically over very long periods of time. We are heading into a grand solar minimum which will cause a 1C drop in global temperatures.

The problem is that NONE of it is caused by or impacted by humanity. Anthropogenic global climate change is a load of malarkey, and we should be worrying about the famine we're going to face when crops consistently fail.

Yep. This is going to get ugly and likely much faster than we think.

Also, plants will respond in kind when CO2 is reduced. Enjoy the lower crop yields, folks.

Unless you disconnect from the grid you are just taking money from your neighbors. Here in Vriginai we have net metering. Instead of them buy the reliable wholesale power for 4 cents, they are forced to buy your unreliable power for 12 cents. In theory your power has lower distribution cost, but that's a penny at most and the reality is that solar often saves zero on distribution.
