    It’s actually quite crazy to see the amount of change Biden could get done even with out control of the legislative branch. Adding to that, the Republicans are in disarray too yet things still got done.

    I’m surprised OP didn’t include the largest climate legislation in world history

    I want to see another country or region beat us, as this would be welcome competition.

      All climate change bills are lipservice if we dont address the core problem, infinite growth capitalism.

        If it’s not perfect we should do nothing you’re right. /S

        You want to address big problems? We need more Democrats in control of the Congress and executive branch. Republicans will always push us back untill their platform changes.

          The second part of your statement is the problem. We dont JUST need more Democrats. We need BETTER Democrats.

          Like I said, these 1/300th steps ARE THE COMPROMISE.

          The current trajectory, even with Democrats in charge, is certain death of Humanity due to Climate change. Republicans will just do it faster.

            Better Democrats > more Democrats > Republicans

            I’ll take a Manchin over a Republican, if it’s a hopelessly red district for example.
