NPR - hour ago: In Historic Move, Biden To Pick Native American Rep. Haaland As Interior Secretary
Excerpt:
In an interview before her nomination, Haaland told NPR that would be her priority, too.
"Climate change is the challenge of our lifetime, and it's imperative that we invest in an equitable, renewable energy economy," she said.
A shift in priorities at Interior could have major implications for global climate change and the United States' outsized contribution to it. About one-quarter of all U.S. carbon emissions come from fossil fuels extracted on public lands, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. That includes emissions from drilling, transporting and refining those fossil fuels before they're burned.
It's looking that the next cabinet is all going to be gung ho about establishing a better renewable foundation.
Then, even if the Pres. seat flips in four years, by then the S curve will have already long squished the dirty energy corporations. Even under the current president, who was Pro-Coal, that industry still was collapsing under their feet.
More solar energy on people's homes make more of them think, "Hm, this free energy is real nice. Wonder how I can expand that?" and then end up getting an electric car.
