The Biden administration finalized a rule this week to significantly restrict coolants commonly used in air conditioning units, yet another strike by the administration against home appliances.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced in a press release that, beginning in 2024, the use of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), a coolant in many air conditioners and refrigerators, must be reduced by 40% over the following 4 years, with an 85% reduction target by 2036.
The EPA called the substance a "climate super-pollutant" and said cracking down on HFCs helps make sure America remains the "global leader in the fight against climate change."
HOWEVER.. Based on the EPA’s estimate that the HFC phaseout would result in 4.7 million tons of CO2 being eliminated in terms of U.S. output by 2050, the "equivalent reduction" worldwide "would be 17 one-thousandths of 1 percent, the temperature effect of which would be undetectable."

The government is trolling.

The only way to put a stop to this nonsense is to get rid of the EPA and the Republicans are not going to do that.
The 2 parties are the flip sides of the same coin.
Why do Biden/Democrats believe forcing Americans to change how we live, without addressing the largest polluters on the planet first, is the way to operate?
And why do they push such massive, unwanted changes down our throats, knowing that when the process of removing Democrats from power is completed in 18 months, ALL OF THIS INSANITY WILL BE REVERSED!?!?
Everything they're trying to implement has absolutely no logistical support or technology to usher it in and nothing, like you mentioned, to replace it.

The climate scam is the next phase of the great reset, the first being the scamdemic. Today Kamala misused the phrase reduce population in place of reduce pollution. A Freudian slip, as it was still the truth.
