One year in, U.S. climate law is already turbocharging clean energy technology:: In less than a year the Inflation Reduction Act has prompted investment in a massive buildout of battery and eletric vehicle manufacturing across the states.
This is mainstream media and I cannot help but wonder what the angle really is because I don’t see any turbocharging going on with regards to clean energy and climate change. Is this meant to gaslight us into believing this is in the works while BP Shell, Exxon, et al continue to push fossil fuels? Given the lobby size of Big Oil I am left wondering. When billions of dollars are at stake, any capitalist industry throws money to lobbyists and lobby groups in serious and concerted efforts to preserve the status quo. That much said, I hope I am really fucking wrong because our planet is reacting violently to what we are doing to it.
Agreed. Until we see evidence of global cooling, I can’t imagine it’s being turbocharged.
