Ok, this is decent. But then we are still drilling and pumping oil and gas at record setting levels, more-so than any other nation on earth. Oil and Gas industry is still heavily subsidized, while subsidies and benefits for renewables have been taken away.
And to top it off, the absolute gimme of Joe Manchin’s Mountain Valley Pipeline through Appalachia.
So basically, as soon as he did the bare minimum with Keystone to pacify the vocal environmental activists on that project, he went right back to business as usual, and then goes beyond by rewarding Manchin with a new pipeline that violates every environmental safety standard imaginable in a mad rush to just “get it done”.
I’m going to have to chalk this up as a net negative for Genocide Joe.
We (the world) quietly changed the goal posts of the energy transition from low-carbon goals to energy security ones. If the US didn't have it's oil production capacity, the west and especially Europe would be at the absolute whim of a handful of pretty shitty countries and having a pretty average time...
It all leaves a very sour taste in everyone's mouths, but can be largely seen as a short term security win.
Oooh another iteration from a Terrible Trump supporter. It's almost like you live off of marketing strategies and bad ideas rather than rational thoughts.
Marketing strategies? Trump supporter?
The irrationality here stems from you. I’m pointing out facts regarding Biden’s conduct. As an environmentally conscious leftist, I’m claiming he has done piss poor in this area, and have listed here some facts to support that claim.
This isn’t a “marketing strategy”, and you jumping to this conclusion is a disturbing signal of the pervasive destruction of late stage capitalism, and the brain rot endemic to neoliberal thinking.
You think keystone is enough on the environmental front? Does that cross off your little checkbox item for faux progressive action by the executive to justify a second term?
I think you are a Terrible Trumper. Because any good leftist would know that Joe is doing what he can and corporations have a lot more to do with environmental issues than the President.
Obviously you are a Trump Pee Pee Poo Pooer, because a true supporter of Joe Biden wouldn't portray his supporters as this inane! Begone, Terrible Trumper!
