The only two things we could do right now today that would have a major impact on emissions without harming the economy are nuclear and fracking for natural gas and Democrats oppose both of them.
The only two things ? First, nuclear energy is for producing on demand electricity and produces hazardous waste we still have no way of dealing with and natural gas is only an interim step to replace coal. Nat gas still produces CO2 . There are more people working in solar industry then oil and coal and they need. electrical storage to be more workable.....not more nukeS .
Also, nuclear energy and natural gas still don’t address huge pollutants like jet travel And long haul. There are many things that need to be addressed. One of the biggest is the development of electrical storage so all the absolutely free energy during sunlight, wind turbine can be stored for high demand hours.
Neither nat gas or nuke addresses either.
