Biden plans to replace federal fleet with American-made electric vehicles

Because climate warming is a joke

Reality would appear to disagree...

Which fact do you think is not true?

1) CO2 levels have risen >40% since humanities fossil fuel addiction started
2) The burning of Fossil Fuels has emitted more than twice as much CO2 as would be required for that rise
3) Doubling CO2 will cause a rise in global average temperature of >3C.

The radiative properties of CO2 have been known and tested for >100 years... How can all 3 be true but Global Warming false?

Well, that is why they call it climate change. It's not just about warming? I'm thinking you know that

Climate change, global warming, whatever you want to call it, IMO, is a joke. And I do have the right to my opinion
Folks, IMO, should be worried about socialism, and things like China taking over. Luckily, I will be dead when younger folks get to deal with these things.

well, I wasn't intending any offense Just that our opinions differ on climate change, yet we sure do align on your other comments.

You certainly do. But not your own facts. The globe is warming due to our pathetic addiction to fools fuel. That's a fact.

I agree, climate change not a joke to me. It's real. I can't speak for H20, but when some people tell me it is a joke, more often they think the "reasons" are a joke. I seldom run across a person that doesn't know from scientific facts that sea levels are rising, glaciers are melting at a faster rate, storms increasing, etc. Now as to why that is occurring, I don't debate the reasons. Some say natural cycle, some say man-made. Probably both.

.... there isn't a single peer reviewed 'natural cycle' that has been implicated in the climate change observations. Of tens of thousands of studies into climate change ~99.7% point to the radiative forcing caused by higher CO2 levels. The remaining 0.3% fail to identify an alternative explanation. It's higher CO2 levels. The only reason CO2 levels are higher is due to anthropogenic emissions.
