Ardent skeptics will 'never' be convinced by the need for climate policies as they are in 'direct opposition' to their ideology, experts say.

"Right now, no one has actually proposed banning continued use of existing cars," Rabe said."And we're talking about a future transition or phase-in that's supported and subsidized by tax credits."

"Chinese power plant emissions hit a new high in 2022 despite COVID and industrial slowdown," Steve Milloy, an author and former coal company executive who served on the EPA transition team for the Trump administration, wrote on January 10."Biden policies to cut emission are pointless." China ranks one above the U.S. on the CCPI, a drop from 38th in 2022. Analysts said it showed strong renewables development but its"long-term policies are not concrete enough."

While"the U.S. is beginning to say we don't want to hear about this from Europe," Rabe said,"this is where this world of climate policy is headed."'Climate Change Caused a Milder Winter in Europe, Saving It From Running Out of Natural Gas' "I think it's important to note, in the European case, that they view this need as transitional rather than permanent," Rabe said."Europe has been more successful in moving toward decarbonisation than any other continent through a series of policies. And they have really faced an unanticipated emergency through essentially a complete cut-off of their largest gas supplier. That was hard to anticipate.

'Some Republicans say tackling climate change is going to kill the US economy and take away people's freedoms. 'Some Republicans frequently push back at what they see as the 'climate agenda.' No Democrats have explicitly expressed climate denial views.'

There are no 'experts' on the climate change psyop. There are people who conflate weather with climate, who take limited data to create erroneous announcements, and those who do whatever the fascist overlords tell them.

Yeah screw it we will all be long gone before there is really any problems.

Everyone should be skeptical of policies that keep developing nations in extreme poverty forever, cost the West billions but do little to impact climate change and ignore the key role of nuclear power in providing clean power on demand.

You are Pravda

The article is correct at least for me. My libertarian mentality makes me averse to climate policies. I will only go so far n that's all. I don't trust our federal government.
