I agree it's a complicated subject. But as a nation the penalties and costs are too high when no one else is doing their part. Now they want to pass the way too expensive Green New Deal FOLLOW THE MONEY. Who makes money from this....
Another interesting angle on this is the impact of regulations. Back in the 70s, the average car got well under 20mpg. Today you can buy cars getting 40+ mpg. If it weren't for regulations, this would never have happened. Whatever else you think of 'climate change', dependence on oil is not a good thing, and wasting the finite amount of oil we do have is not a good idea.
Good point.I believe the financials behind these industries are the reason certain technologies aren't being developed or used (old example was pantyhose that never run) because that would put the manufacturers and stores out of business . Tires for example could probably make ones that drive a million miles but that would destroy a whole industry. Cars that run on water... I saw something about that a long time ago I don't remember the details. Technology for recycling so everything has another use. Which industry will be first and convert to give a long lasting product at reasonable manufacturing cost? Consumerism drives all of this. I personally want my telephone to last longer than 2 years. They seem to self destruct.
