2020 declines in carbon emissions were staggering. Can we keep it that way? nbcnews.com/science/environm… My latest for #EarthDay

Did the pandemic show us that we can cut carbon emissions? Sort of.

If the pandemic revealed what could be considered low-hanging fruit in the climate fight, it also highlighted the sheer scope of the problem.

Biden's offshore wind energy plan is what the climate — and economy — needs

And yet I wonder: what GOP nonsense will Biden's wind farms inspire?
