  1. I know that Canada expanded its green subsidies in an effort to keep up with the IRA, and I’d imagine that other countries did the same. These climate investments wouldn’t have happened without Biden, and I doubt that they’re going away because of Trump. Granted, it’s going to take a lot of effort to make sure that these investments keep being made outside of America.

  2. Biden believed in Americans too much, Americans failed him.

    It takes your breath away but it’s true. Rather just kept kicking that gift horse in the mouth.

  3. Nah, he just slightly reduced the speed of the car we’re in that is about to drive off a cliff.

  4. He might have tapped the brakes a bit, but King Turd fully plans on putting the accelerator firmly to the floor.

  5. While he may not have the impact we would’ve liked through his first 1400 days as president he finished strong in those last couple months and maybe better so in the last 10 days by setting aside I nice green budget and trying to avoid a near future drilling catastrophe.

  6. That’s a low bar being set considering the planet needed help starting decades ago.

  7. People do not care about the environment. As the consequences build on consequences they still won’t care or will be easily distracted away from caring.

  8. I bought three plug in’s and installed two chargers and a heat pump thanks to his policies so I think he left an impact.
