    We’ve been getting change; when the Democrats had a razor-thin majority in both houses of congress last session, we got meaningful climate legislation

    A bunch of regulation has been layered on top of it to try and get additional emissions cuts.

    It’s not enough yet, but the operative word is yet. Put a bunch more Democrats into positions of power, and the US may actually do its part.

      Great, so the US is going to marginally cut their greenhouse gas emissions. Unfortunately, this is a global problem, and globally, we achieved record emissions this year.

        The US is one of the largest emitters though as third highest population globally, one of the most heavily developed, and one of the most dépendant on wasteful technologies like automobiles.

        Marginal cuts to their emissions is worth more than a small nation going completely green. Both should happen mind you, but take wins wherever you can
