The Trump administration is threatening to leave the influential agency unless it stops publishing its annual road map for cutting planet-warming emissions.
The rest of the planet understands that climate change is real and is acting accordingly. The US is the odd one out. Even then, US states, local governments, businesses, universities, etc all also understand that climate change is real and are moving forward with decarbonization. It’s the federal government and red states that are doing their best to stop what everyone else agrees is just common sense, if we don’t want the planet to cook
You fundamentally misunderstand. They know too. They simply care about profits more.
No, I understand that. It’s shortsighted though, to think that staying on fossil fuels is the pathway to profitability. Real innovation in the energy sector is going to be electrification, renewables, and storage, and fossil energy is already a developed industry. They’re too captured by oil and gas donor money to follow their own profit-driven logic.
