Mr. President, we have a climate emergency | The Hill

With his climate-action bill shot down in Congress, President Biden 
Biden is considering whether the climate emergency warrants an official declaration that would give the president extra executive authority to deal with it. There shouldn’t be much debate. If Biden believes his own words that climate change is the “number one issue facing humanity,” he should use all the powers he has to confront it head-on.

which brings us back to the fact that anything we do even if by a well developed plan is pointless without a similar commitment from China and India

I dont see emptying our cash over climate change as a good thing when China goes right on as usual laughing at us

All that seems to be happening is spending money to drive up inflation with no up side at all

I'd be happy with a rough outline of a plan somewhere instead of just "pass this bill and we'll throw money at it for a while" ....

I'll believe it when I see it

and if it happens we will need to replenish or emergency reserve and stop selling it to lower gas prices
I think it will happen

when the price goes up, folks find a way to pump more oil

US oil production is headed up rather strongly, and will be setting records next year.  We may reach the 2019 record late this year.
Yes it is. However, short term oil production in the US isn't the issue. The issue is that the Biden Admin has made future exploration almost impossible. Between the restricting of certain Federal Lands, the onerous and excessive permitting process and the ESG scoring that essentially denys funds to oil companies for future, long term projects, the future of US oil is in danger.

This is pretty close to me. I go by boat to a restaurant near this shithole marina. It needs to be condemned.

400 gallons of oil pulled from Charlotte County marina after fire, more pollution remains (winknews.com)

Nope, all other states are shitholes, Florida is not.

Except for 3/4 of the state that is inland.

And the parts that are close to Alabama.

This Riviera Marina is in a primo spot. I'd love to own it and operate it correctly. It could be a gold mine.



Instead, it's this:

According to the Environmental Protection Agency, transportation overtook electricity generation in 2017 as the economic sector responsible for the most carbon dioxide-equivalent emissions.

Transportation-related emissions were responsible for more than a quarter of all emissions in 2019. And while emissions from the sector dropped in 2020 due to people staying home during the pandemic, it remained one of the top emissions sources.

In 2019, the most recent year for which state emissions data by economic sector is available, transportation accounted for more than 40% of emissions in 12 states. Hawaii's share was the highest at 48%. On the other end are Wyoming and North Dakota, where less than 10% of emissions came from traveling.

Which states produce the most carbon emissions?
