    I agree, i have led bulbs and tubes, But poor people cant afford them, they have day to day needs, it just gives them the option of not having to decide between a led bulb or a bag of rice. its just an option. and all of them that can afford both will buy the led for economics, Just give people a choice and dont mandate it, we all have the best for the environment in mind.

    ^ Better, make sure people make enough money to pay for light bulbs.

    How about an executive order for that?

    In regards to this air quality map. Do you think that the purple spot in Africa is because of a coal fired power plant? or do think it might be because they don't have a coal fired powered plant and are burning shit for cooking, heat and power?

    Ailing oil companies get a pass on royalties



    According to documents obtained by High Country News, the BLM bypassed normal processes to provide pandemic relief.

    “It looks like an effort to exploit COVID-19 to give away public resources in ways that are ultimately quite destructive.”

    SNIP

    These new directives are not outliers. Despite the pandemic, the BLM appears to be encouraging public-lands drilling, rather than pressing operators to shut in wells and not produce oil. In the past few months, the BLM held lease sales in Colorado, Montana, Nevada and Wyoming. A September auction could make more than 100,000 acres of public land available for drilling just outside Canyonlands and Arches national parks in Utah. No such aid has been offered to renewable energy industries, which have also suffered in the downturn. Instead, the Interior Department hit solar and wind projects on federal land with large retroactive rent bills in mid-May, Reuters reported.

    There is one thing that is a continuum, These guys spew toxic gases into our atmosphere non stop and there is nothing that solar panels or wind turbines will ever do to stop them.

    trump's brother died today.

    Robert Trump, president'''s brother, dies - Axios




    it is what it is.

    all brother's matter.

    btw...trump was so concerned about his brother that he spent the day playing golf....and i'd bet if he isn't golfing tomorrow, he'll be angry at his dead brother that he can't because of the optics.

    yes "they" have.

    Trump's attitude about 3 1/2 years of his lying

    Best WH press conference question I recall hearing in a long time.

    The guy works for the Huffington Post. He was setting him up.


    HuffPost:



    FACT CHECK: This accusation from the liberal interest group, Citizens for Responsible and Ethics in Washington (CREW), has no merit as Acting Administrator Wheeler, under the Trump Ethics Pledge and federal government ethics rules, would still be recused from meeting or working with Murray Energy in any capacity. CREW knowingly misinformed the public with their quote. You would think a group with ethics in its name would intimately know ethics rules.
    Furthermore, CREW is nothing more than another David Brock project to attack the Trump Administration. In fact, in a 2017 memo presented at a Democracy Alliance meeting to sway ultra wealthy donors, former chairman of CREW David Brock outlined how “we are going to resist the normalization of Donald Trump” and further listed off how a number of his affiliated groups including Media Matters for America, CREW, Shareblue, and American Bridge will lead the charge against the Trump Administration. The image below grouping the groups together was highlighted at the top of the memo:


    HuffPost:



    FACT CHECK: As Acting Administrator Wheeler has previously stated on the record (here and here among others), he did not have a role in crafting the Murray Action Plan. Furthermore, Acting Administrator Wheeler has recused himself from meeting and working with Murray Energy for two years.
    FACT CHECK: Acting Administrator Wheeler was only confirmed in his deputy role in April 2018 and did not become acting head of the Agency until July 9, 2018. To claim these actions were only carried out under his direction is demonstrably false, as many reporters who have followed the Trump EPA should know.




    HuffPost:



    FACT CHECK: This sentence is incredibly misleading to trick the reader into thinking Vice President Mike Pence was present in the meeting.

    What do you mean "setting him up"?

    Baldy orange cunto is an habitual liar.

    Are you trying to deny it based on a completely different issue?
