Well, for that you have to thank politicians who were deeeeep in the oil and gas pockets. They did nothing to construct clean energy stuff.

So now we are paying the price for that. No one of us wanted this, except for the greedy companies and some politicians.

You can wear thermo clothing. You can drive an electric car or bicycle and demand better infrastructure and public transport. Plenty of opportunities.

Not doing anything and crying about not having enough gas, which itself harms the climate, is not the solution.

The US has decreased some emissions, but far too few and little. It needs to go to zero.

I just don’t think you understand the impact on the economy it would be to go to zero

The impact would be larger if we did nothing. Have you got any better ideas?

Have a good economy so we can better fund actual policies instead of ramping up spending to where we inflate the currency so much we can’t afford to put in policies that will actually effect climate change

Did you just say oil and gas interests are responsible for the drastic decrease in USA's emissions?

"You can drive an electric car"

"Emissions need to go to zero."

You don't know how electric cars are made, do you?

I see talking with you is talking on deaf ears... You are not actually willing to learn. I have constructively answered you, and you keep returning with personal attacks. You know that you can be better than this.

Bless your heart. I disengage.
