Today is your day Boomer! If you read my blog on a regular basis, you know I rip into Mr. Trump and praise Joe Biden. I guess it is my political leaning....but this time, I say Biden has bombed! On the heels of another climate change crisis warning from the UN, the US President has approved another big oil project in Alaska. The so-called Willow Project will access about 600 million barrels of oil in the future and according to CNN, "the Biden administration’s own estimates state the project would generate enough oil to release 9.2 million metric tons of planet-warming carbon pollution a year – equivalent to adding 2 million gas-powered cars to the roads." Biden has promised to cut carbon emissions by half by 2030, so this project is a slap in the face! Tiernan Sittenfeld, the senior vice president of government affairs for the League of Conservation Voters, says the league is “extremely disappointed” in the decision, calling the project “dangerous” and “dirty.” Say it isn't so, Joe.....change your mind, please. Think global, not local. The US is already the 2nd biggest polluter in the world behind China. Its actions have a huge effect. By the way, China has just signed an agreement to use increasingly more oil from Russia. World....we're in trouble.
