In addition to “climate change” and “green,” EERE forbid officials from using “emissions” to avoid the implication that they are a negative. Climate change is caused by rising greenhouse gas emissions, which is driven primarily by burning oil, coal and natural gas for energy.

Other terms officials must ditch include “energy transition,” “sustainability/sustainable,” “‘clean’ or ‘dirty’ energy,” “Carbon/CO2 ‘Footprint’” and “Tax breaks/tax credits/subsidies.”

    I’d love to legislatively fix all this.

    But fascists aren’t known for allowing fair elections.

    So I think that ship sailed in November 2024 while a bunch of fucking losers were protest voting or not voting at all.

    America was warned. America didn’t listen.

      Right?! The number of people who stayed home because “Kamila doesn’t support Palestine enough.” was insane. Leave it to us on the left to completely ignore existential problems if we’re given the opportunity to prove to another leftist that they’re not left enough, and only the most extreme left-wing opinions are legitimate.
