Biden’s Empty Environmentalism

No doubt, the 46th President of the United States got off to a terrible start by signing over 40 executive orders on the first few days of his administration!
What a fool!

"... The pipeline, which would have carried 830,000 barrels of crude oil from the sands of Alberta down to the U.S. Gulf Coast, was set to be the first-ever carbon-neutral project of its kind: its developer, TC Energy Corporation, had committed to achieving “net zero emissions across the project operations,” spending $1.7 billion on renewable-energy sources to build and operate the entire initiative, making Keystone “the most sustainable and environmentally friendly pipeline project that has ever been built,” in the words of the project’s president. ..."

Biden’s Keystone XL Cancellation Does Nothing for Climate Policy Shutting down the Keystone XL pipeline shows the new president’s preference for symbolism over substance on environmental policy.
