"More funding for transit not one mile of highway expansion. (fix what we have)"

read far enough to seehe is unwilling to deal with facts. I am reminded of a poster on this site who retired after years as a manager at MTA (transit onwed by the people through the state government the archetype of socialism) who decried socialism, yet cashed his paychecks, now retirement pension which he earned as an employee of a socialist entity.

That is not a subsidy and lacks proff.

Global warming has been going on since the end of the last ice age. So What, man has nothing to do with that.

The politically correct word today is "Climate Change".

Climate is a function of the planet as a whole and would go through cycles even if man was not here, and will go through cycles even when man is no longer here.

Global warming is worse because of man, in particular because of oil and coal. Oil and coal users need to pay for the damage they are provably causing.

Coal needs to be done away with. Oil is still useful because it is needed for aviation fuel, and much of motor fuel, along with lubricants and plastics.

Oil has a long lifetime ahead of it, in increasingly limited quantities.

Once power storage is good enough, electric cars and trucks will rule.

For airplanes, the key is fuel weight. Hydrogen has more energy per kg than oil, though less energy per liter. I suspect planes will burn H2 in your lifetime, though not mine.

Lubricants and plastics, fine.

That was a messed up war, but we didn't get control of Iraq's oil. They don't like us very much after that event, and prefer to make their oil deals with anyone else. IDK if that was or was not the goal, but it sure AF was not the result.

No.

I am not a radical when it comes to the reduction of CO2 in our atmosphere. We just need to make major progress, decade by decade. We don't need to be at 100% renewable energy by 2030. Biofuels are a fairly pointless distraction on the way to our goals.

Our planet can afford to support air travel as we eventually move over to airplanes burning hydrogen.

If you listen to the green new deal / climate change alarmists closely you will find the true agenda. Even out so called years of imperialistic inequalities by plunging the US and European economies into decline to benefit third world emerging economies.

Yes India, South America and China do not need to cut emissions, in fact they are allowed to greatly expand emissions under the Paris climate accord.

It is not about "saving the environment" it is about reversing the course of history they think is wrong . It is about socialist central government control.
