    We never had any intention of hitting any of these targets. Not Kyoto, not Paris, not whatever the next one will be.

    You’re asking corporations to stop producing and people to stop consuming. This will never happen. Not until there’s money to be made in it. That’s why they’re pushing these idiotic carbon capture plants.

    Government grants, bailouts and subsidies to be had with those, not by scaling back.

    We’re fucked.

    I think we’re all aware of that but unfortunately we are under attack by our own supposed ally who is attempting to destroy our country along with their own. Maybe when the war is over and won, we can resume our climate targets.

      Hey don’t be so pessimistic! If we blow up a bunch of US energy infrastructure during the war we can take credit for the emissions reductions!
