President Trump pulled out of the Paris Climate Accord and eased Obama-Biden climate regulations. The U.S. is still leading the world in CO2 reductions.
The Paris Climate Accord was a tool to bilk more money from the US and pull us further into the UN agenda. We were to turn over resources and money, in big numbers, to underdeveloped countries like China, most countries in Africa, and India. We would ban U.S. fossil fuel use under this illegal accord while funding countries to burn fossil fuels.
The climate regulations only existed as regulations with little to no value in cooling the climate, certainly none any time soon.
According to a report by the Wall Street Journal, fracking has reduced CO2 emissions.
A new US Energy Information Administration report shows how fracking and competitive energy markets have done more to reduce CO2 emissions over the last decade than government regulation and renewable subsidies. Vice President Mike Pence made this point on Wednesday night.
THE FACTS
According to the report, energy-related CO2 emissions in the U.S. fell 2.8% last year as many utilities replaced coal and heating oil with less expensive natural gas. Hydraulic fracturing combined with horizontal drilling has unleashed a gusher of natural gas production in the Midwest and Southwest. As a result, natural gas prices have plunged.
CO2 emissions from coal declined by more than 50% from 2007 to 2019, the report notes, and 15% in 2019 alone. Between 2016 and 2019, the share of electricity generated by natural gas rose to 38.1% from 33.7% and non-carbon generation (including nuclear and hydropower) to 38.2% from 35.5%.
Increasing power generation from natural gas has accounted for 60% of the country’s decline in CO2 emissions from electricity since 2010, the report states.
But, hey, Kamala and joe won’t let facts get in their way. Democrats don’t want us to be energy independent after decades of telling us we needed to be energy independent.

The dims act as if no advances have been made in the past 50 plus years regarding racism and climate matters.
Remember the ozone hole CFCs and the commercials with the tearful Native American by a pile of roadside garbage?
We’ve come a long way since then and it all gets swept under the rug by the CPUSA.
We don’t have as many plains or high powered wind as the Kanorado region and the huge Smoky Hills windmill project but there are windmill farms going up here in Red State in the North where it is all flat farmland.
The personal behavior of 1% of the U. S. population results in their CO2 footprints being 50 TIMES the average of the other 99%. This surprises no one but people are surprised when they realize, using 5th grade math, that this means this small group is responsible for more than 33% of ALL U. S. CO2 emissions and were this small group to only emit 25 TIMES the average of everyone else, OVERALL U. S. CO2 emissions would immediately, not over years or decades, decline 17%. But as many of this small group are AGW scammers, you never hear about this fact.
Such unfair exceptionalism doesn’t look like they really care about the environment itself，otherwise they wouldn’t be ignoring these huge threats to it ，what they really care about is how to punish America
President Trump’s UN speech was reasonable ，why would some country that is emitting two times the CO2 emitted by the US ，dumping most of the world’s garbage into the oceans and overfishing everywhere including natural reservations can escape with all the responsibilities ，why should they be treated with exceptionalism?
