Confirmed Again: The Green Agenda Is Taking Us Backward

Classic cars are greener than electric vehicles

  • A classic car emits 563 grams of CO2 a year, while an electric vehicle emits 6.8 grams
  • An electric vehicle with a comparable carbon footprint would take an average classic 12 years to match to reach the national average of 1,200 miles
  • EVs are cleaner because they emit tailpipe emissions, but don't consider pollution generated by the manufacturing process

What else have the Green Shirts given us?

  • Blackouts.
  • "Rush toward green energy has left U.S. 'incredibly' vulnerable to summer blackouts, expert warns," says a Fox News headline from Monday.
  • Daniel Turner, founder and executive director at Power the Future, told the network that the entire country is incredibly vulnerable to blackouts.

Famine

  • A presidential ban on chemical fertilizers last year wrecked Sri Lanka's harvest.
  • Similar environmental nincompoopery is threatening food production in the agriculturally rich Netherlands, where the government has proposed cutting nitrogen oxide and ammonia emissions by half by 2030.

The Energy Crisis

  • With consumer prices rising at a four-decade-high of 8.6% in the most recent year-over-year comparison, Americans are watching their standard of living fall fast.
  • The economic disaster Biden has created is ultimately a result of surging federal spending during the pandemic, foolish Fed policies that poured monetary gasoline onto a raging inflation fire, and the ongoing effort by Biden and the Democrats to punish the very companies that provide our energy, threatening them with smothering regulations, painful taxes and even public shaming.

Bottom Line

  • Unless there are unforeseen advances in energy technology, Biden's plan to cut CO2 emissions by 50% from 2005 levels by 2030 and by 100% by 2050 is simply not achievable.
  • The "net-zero emissions" extremism will damage the next generation's prospects of living better than their parents did.
