In addition to “climate change” and “green,” EERE forbid officials from using “emissions” to avoid the implication that they are a negative. Climate change is caused by rising greenhouse gas emissions, which is driven primarily by burning oil, coal and natural gas for energy.
Other terms officials must ditch include “energy transition,” “sustainability/sustainable,” “‘clean’ or ‘dirty’ energy,” “Carbon/CO2 ‘Footprint’” and “Tax breaks/tax credits/subsidies.”
They have morons on both sides already eager to do that for them.
Remember when science could be debated? Now we just have to accept everything as fact without question if it supports the correct agenda.
Questioning science gets you banned, lol. It may as well be religion at that point.
Questioning what science gets you banned from what, by whom? Scientists question science all the time. You’d need to give examples to explain what you’re referring to.
If one side of a discussion on facts has data and the other has opinions what is there to debate?
I remember a time when hard data was debatable - it was ten minutes ago. We’re trapped in a timeline where data is disregarded in favour of comfortable lies.
Why address climate change if one can instead engage in mass self-deception.
That’s literally not how science works or has ever worked
“Questioning science” is literally part of the scientific method. Every single scientist is constantly doing it.
