When I hear about COP26, my main consolation is that the president can’t commit the U.S. to something without the approval of Congress. That is, if our system operates properly, which it hasn’t been doing recently. Obama was able to commit us to some climate nonsense, which Trump was able to undo. That’s not how it’s supposed to work.
With the Senate evenly divided, I’m hoping they will be able to prevent Biden from sleepwalking us into some bad policies.
BTW, can anyone remember how many decades it’s been that the world only has a decade to get greenhouse gases under control? I’m thinking it’s at least three.
COP26 is at least partially right. We should phase out fossil fuels, but we should replace them with energy that works. That means nukes.
