Today’s Topic is … Climate Change and the EPA.

What does the EPA have to say about climate change?

The purpose of TCR is to bring clarity and sanity to the conversation about climate change. In my opinion and observation, we are being misled constantly about climate change. The most authoritative voices in this space have succeeded in oversimplifying the problem and overcomplicating the solution.

They have oversimplified the problem by making climate change, and the effects of climate change, including flooding, drought and wildfires all about and excess of greenhouse gases, which are, at best, a partial cause of these phenomena. Flooding, drought and wildfires have multiple causes. Notably they are caused by how we treat the land, not just what we put into the air.

They have overcomplicated the solution by proposing this massive transition to so-called renewable energy, which can only be accomplished by pouring countless billions of dollars into solar energy, wind energy and electric vehicles, which arguably will not go very far to address the real problems.

The real solutions, IMO, involve moving decisively toward a real democracy, a government of, by and for the people, instead of a government of, by and for those individuals with the power and the money to buy the media and buy government at all levels.

If we had a government of, by and for the people, we could enact public policies that function for our benefit instead of policies, like solar power and wind power, excessive militaries, monopolistic media enterprises that only benefit a few elites.

So let's look at what the Environmental Protection Agency has to say about climate change.
