Wow not even one

It's the Senate, the meme Democrats are all in the house.

But there's still a few that I would think would

Did the house actually vote on this already?

I doubt they will let it come up for a vote in the house

it was only going to get a vote in the senate. that where all the presidential candidate are though

so they all claimed to support it, but refused to vote for it.

Well, all the presidential candidates except Beta, because his claim to fame is losing a senate race.

Yeah. It’s such a dumb policy.

It’s especially ignorant that aoc thinks nobody is doing anything too.

I follow energy and the environment issues and it’s painfully obvious how ignorant she is

I could write an entire paper on how much she doesn’t know.

Now that I think about it, why even have a vote in the Senate, except as a 'look at us standing for our principles' gesture?

Or did a republican bring it to the floor to force the democrats to own up to it?

As far as AOC goes, I'm at the point where I can't even pretend like she's anything other than an even emptier suit than normal.

I think the Republicans brought it to force the dems' hands

@C1PHER correct

Mitch got em

The tortoise and the red scare

Lol.

Slow and coccaine win the race.

i think its a good opportunity to discuss these ideas and see where people stand

It can be.

I’d say the republicans have completely dropped the climate change issue altogether and it’s harder to push back against leftist ideas as a result

they can try, instead of showing pictures of regan on a dinosaur

That’s true.

I think it’s a state’s issue at this point.

The states are already addressing it.

it would help to have some discussions, they interviewed lomborg in 2013 for example

Yeah. I think it would be worth looking at his plan.

However it’s already pretty apparent that the energy sector is moving towards renewables

Plenty of people in Africa are already using solar lamps just to get light

*sees a bunch of commies in the chat*

those are market solutions, lomborg has some solid libertarian ideas (and many non-libertarian ideas)

like an easy way to reduce the cost associated with flooding and huricanes... get rid of the federal subsidy on insurance

^ yup. Agree with that.

or increase efficiency in food production... remove subsidies and price ceilings and floors on agriculture

basically get our sugar from cane instead of beets

There are some fossil fuel subsidies that could be abolished, like LIHEAP. This program incentivizes people to use fossil fuels for residential heating
