The Biden administration has announced in recent weeks new stringent emissions requirements for virtually the entire American transportation system.
Then the EPA announced new rules for trains in California to go electric — even as the Association of American Railroads has declared the mandate infeasible. It also comes at a time when the left has insisted that more than a dozen coal and gas plants need to be shuttered. Nuclear plants continue to get shuttered, too. Locally, greens also have started a movement to stop transmission lines and pipelines from being built.
Some of the more honest green groups concede that a power shortage is coming as a result of their radical "decarbonization" agenda. Their solution is rationing energy. The government will tell you how much power you can use and when you can use it. There is also a move afoot to conserve energy by abolishing air conditioners and "nonessential" air travel — as well as gas stoves and power lawnmowers.
