The driving force behind EPA boss Lee Zeldin revoking the White House's 2009 discovery on greenhouse gases marks another major milestone in the revision of President Trump's climate course.
But it's been a long time since the West has admitted it. The whole anti-carbon crusade declared in the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement proved disaster – destroying the economy and deteriorating lives None It makes a huge difference to climate change.
Here at home, the 2009 (Obama era) “discovery” provided legal pretext for everything from power plants to cars to gas stoves, as it declared greenhouse gases to risk public health.
That discovery begins to roll back those dictatts, boost the economy, restore freedom for Americans, and restore freedom to choose products and lifestyles.
Zeldin's move follows President Trump's withdrawal from the Paris Agreement on Day 1 (again).
And on Monday, Trump said he would undo Biden's cancellation of the Keystone XL pipeline, pledging a simple approval process.
Sanity has clearly returned to DC.
Think about it: Despite trillions of dollars spent in the name of reducing greenhouse gas production, global emissions are It's increased It's about 6% since the transaction was inked.
They blame China and India for much of it. From 2015 to 2023, India's per capita greenhouse gas emissions rose by 20%. About 15% of China (133% (Since 2000).
That's what Beijing is still Abandoned coal-fired power plants (the worst source of carbon emissions): 2024, All Bloombergit has begun construction of coal generators with more capacity than in the past decade.
Yes, these signs are increasing global renewable energy sources, but overall demand has increased, making up less than 15% of global energy consumption.
Climate obligations, on the other hand, have devastated and embraced the nation, particularly in Europe.
Take Germany not only attempting to phase out fossil fuels, but also trying to shut down all That nuclear reactor.
In 2024, the economy was seen contract Second year in a row.
That hit is uncontroversial with the energy price spike imposed by the early rush to the “energy transition” (along with the Ukrainian war and the unreliable weather for the wind and solar power).
These prices have stepped into the manufacturers and give them an edge to their Chinese competitors.
It's no wonder the Germans voted for a change of direction last week, choosing Friedrich Merz, who promised to prioritize the economy over the fight on carbon.
Voters also supported alternatives to German climate war enemies, keeping Green, defending Net Zero Drive at under 12%.
Other European countries are suffering too.
The UK's economic growth has been anemia for years. This is four times the rate in the US as the UK has the highest industrial and commercial electricity bills in the world.
This is a result of a significant reduction in emissions (down 53% from the 1990 levels by 2023). This is the price that drove manufacturing abroad.
France still has enough nuclear power, so there is no less suffering, but efforts to reduce car emissions have led to the popular rage associated with the 2018 “Yellow Vest” protest that dominated President Emmanuel Macron's party.
in contrast, advantage Climate wars do not exist in virtually any way. As economist Bjorn Lomborg points out, if the world does nothing more about emissions until the end of the century, global warming will slightly reduce average total economic growth through 2100 from 450% to 435%.
Trump gets it: the Paris Agreement – certainly, the whole Net Zero Mania – is the plague of human prosperity.
civilization It depends Fossil fuels and, on the contrary, all the magical thoughts of the global elite cannot change that fact, but impose only meaningless misery.
And as this insane cost continues to sweep the house, those elites become increasingly less powerful.
