WELL, THAT’S BECAUSE THEY DON’T ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT AS SUCH: Crickets from green groups as Trump makes U.S. ‘global leader in emissions reductions.’ “Under President Trump, the United States led the world in reducing carbon-dioxide emissions in 2019, but don’t expect Greta Thunberg to give him a hug any time soon. International Energy Agency data released earlier this month showing that U.S. emissions dropped by 2.9% last tear failed to make an impression with Democrats, environmentalists and climate activists, who either shrugged off the data or argued that Mr. Trump’s climate-denialism was somehow thwarted.”

It’s all about control. They’ll cheer authoritarian measures that don’t reduce emissions, and ignore or denigrate free-market measures that do reduce them. Because they’re just commies with a green shell.
