Global warming, or climate change, is an increase in the earth’s atmospheric temperature since the late nineteenth century. In politics the debate over global warming is centered on whether this increase in temperature is due to greenhouse gas emissions or is the result of a natural pattern in the earth’s temperature. In 2022 Congress passed the Inflation Reduction Act which included hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies for investing in renewable-energy projects and producing energy from renewable sources. The bill also included credits to help factories retool to turn…

@9YBS6XQRepublican7mos7MO
I think they should get fluoride out of the water. They should fix the chemical issues. Robert Kennedy will fix these problems on the first day.
@9WVN9YYRepublican7mos7MO
No, biofuels and cleaner burning fuels and nuclear should instead be subsidized heavily and the average consumer educated about the biofuels.
@9TYLRXBRepublican9mos9MO
No, we should continue to use fossil fuels to fund the development of cleaner energy. Perform gradual changes as technology gets better. Not smart to make changes if we are unable pay for it….
@9T5KGXY9mos9MO
Fund Bitcoin to capture wasted energy. Fund regenerative farming to capture extra carbon in the air.
@9QFRLN411mos11MO
yes, only if they are minimally intrusive and target large companies that are causing the most pollution and not the individual person.
@9Q5FMX811mos11MO
The united sates alone is not responsible for climate change. China is the main contributor to global warming and co2 emissions and we should put a tariff on Chinese made goods until they got their co2 emissions under control.
@9JVPVBB1yr1Y
Unless there are strict regulations implemented by China and India, all Western environmental regulations are useless to prevent climate change.
@9H3M9XPConstitution2yrs2Y
No, but provide incentives for alt and green energy solutions. More options and redundancies the better.
@9F6RHB72yrs2Y
Climate change is not an actual issue, I know this because the overall percentage of the atmosphere is 0.04% of all collected emissions. On top of that it has been proven by NASA that the earth is cooling instead of heating.
@9DZD7432yrs2Y
No, put funding and incentives into clean nuclear energy research
@9DM5NZLIndependent2yrs2Y
people need to do this on their own and not be reliant upon governments to make their own decisions for them.
@9DB2GJD2yrs2Y
While global warming is a natural occurrence, the rate at which it is happening is faster due to humans. There should be more incentives for alternative energy.
@98QHHYW2yrs2Y
No, we cannot handle other countries that are creating a large issue in climate change as well.
@VulcanMan6 2yrs2Y
What do other countries have to do with our own regulation..?
@98JB5Z42yrs2Y
The government should be very limited in funding and regulations. Give more power to the states. People will be more free.
@VulcanMan6 2yrs2Y
Isn't the entire problem caused because certain people are freely polluting and whatnot? That's literally the kind of thing that regulations are designed to stop people from freely doing. You literally *shouldn't* be "free" to contribute to further climate collapse...
@8SFC3BG4yrs4Y
No, climate change is fake.
@9JBPB851yr1Y
No, because of things like the internet and lack of knowledge people believe that things such as wind will help prevent climate change however in reality the only real energy source that we should use is realistically nuclear as it is the best for the environment.
@RWM1999Republican 2yrs2Y
No, but maintain an optimal number of regulations that don't impede on or stifle innovation and provide incentives for developing cleaner technologies
@97RWBWDLibertarian3yrs3Y
No, but put companies who pollute excessively in the public eye so the free market will stop them.
@96DTT7V3yrs3Y
Yes, if the regulation can be shown to be effective without damaging the economy.
@7BK2VZ6Republican3yrs3Y
No, the Anthropocentric Theory of Climate Change is a blatant exaggeration at best and a lie at worst
@94YKJ9YLibertarian3yrs3Y
I’d have to look at the specific regulations
@94XM8J63yrs3Y
China and India is worse so I don’t care
@94SW2KBIndependent3yrs3Y
Government should use nuclear energy
@945TK2L3yrs3Y
Go do something about China pollution first.
@93Z6XQR3yrs3Y
Let the free market decide on alternative energy options besides wind and solar.
@93JJ89F3yrs3Y
All governments need to be held accountable for the geo-engineering, climate control and weather manipulation that is happening but nobody will acknowledge
@93G227M3yrs3Y
No, but there should be social and economic incentives for improving conditions
@93D8XLQLibertarian3yrs3Y
Yes, while providing incentives for alternative energy, and taxing carbon emissions from companies.
@92WYQL53yrs3Y
No, focus on clean energy alternatives like nuclear. As long as international polluters like China continue to increase coal use the USA can have very little impact on global climate change even with zero emissions.
@92Q8QJP3yrs3Y
Allow the free market by removing nuclear red tape
@92P8WW2Constitution3yrs3Y
Yes but focus on conservation and plastic waste instead of carbon emissions
@92HXLQQConstitution3yrs3Y
Manmade climate change is a hoax
@928X5HF3yrs3Y
It cannot be stopped, only slowed, and it takes time to put the measures we have in place.
@8ZXWPBY3yrs3Y
No, instead fund nuclear power plants
@8ZVQ64K3yrs3Y
Revert to nuclear energy.
@8ZSMSYHLibertarian3yrs3Y
We need to take care of the planet. But first need to take politicians out of the conversation.
@8ZFMV3R3yrs3Y
yes but enforce the use of renewable energy but don't restrict the use of fossil fuels
@8YWW4Q33yrs3Y
There is a middle ground to all of it. While climate change is a real threat, the extent of goverment involvement should be to that of immediate risk to the population, such as toxic emissions. Incentivizing alternative energy and utilizing the infrastructure created for things such a nuclear energy is a good addition as well.
@8YMXY3K3yrs3Y
More ways to prevent pollution, Climate change may be more of a natural occurrence
@8YJJSGK3yrs3Y
they should wait and depending on timing yes but wait till it becomes a problem.
@8YGXMWS3yrs3Y
yes but switching to electronic vehicles isn’t not logical because you can’t fuel up in the middle of the road when you break down unless you run out of better unless you run a gas generator and the energy source producing the electric is not green anyways
@8YBF2ZR3yrs3Y
Yes, but only with green taxes.
@8Y6MMZB3yrs3Y
global warming, climate change is a money making scheme for politicians... HOAX!
@8Y453Z23yrs3Y
Yes, but continue use of ICE and fossil fuels and allow technology to reduce emissions and carbon capture.
@8XV4NCX4yrs4Y
No, gobal warming is natural however they soud insitivies alterntive energy solutions do to the finite amount of fosil fules
@8XL4WLW4yrs4Y
No, the sun controls the climate, not tax dollars. You can't even stop littering.
@8XJ7DL4Republican4yrs4Y
Not things that have to do with gas
@8X94TRY4yrs4Y
No, The U.S. already has the toughest regulations then any other country in the world
@8X3RMR94yrs4Y
I do not believe in Climate Chane/ global warming
@8WYBXV8Republican4yrs4Y
Yes, they should, but we need other ways of working our world first. This world is ran on oil, we need a cleaner replacement.
@8WV7RHYRepublican4yrs4Y
people cannot control climate change
@8WSRDN24yrs4Y
No, instead provide an incentive to switch to nuclear energy and conduct more research in that field
@8WP32FY4yrs4Y
Climate change SIMPLY isn't real.
@8WNXFDNRepublican4yrs4Y
I don't feel like I'm qualified to answer this question.
@8WJLTX84yrs4Y
More regulations should be added for corporations that produce the majority of pollution.
@8WJLRBJ4yrs4Y
The government should invest in nuclear energy.
@8WHMHYN4yrs4Y
Climate change is happening all the time but not to the extremes this generation pretends them to be.
@8W8DSM64yrs4Y
I am for a better environment that makes financial sense. providing incentives for green corporations will not work. If the idea for new energy is a good one and makes money it will become the option consumers want to use.
@8VZ9KS44yrs4Y
The myth is believing climate doesn't change
@8VJX3T4Republican4yrs4Y
No, because the USA isn’t one of the countries contributing to climate change
@8VFJ9WF4yrs4Y
Commit to making are carbon emitted sources more efficient
@8VCTT664yrs4Y
Climates been changing since the beginning of time theres nothing man/ woman can do to control mother nature
@8VCDB8LLibertarian4yrs4Y
Add more nuclear power plants
@8VBZNTQIndependent4yrs4Y
Stop subsidizing oil companies allowing the market to decide prices.
@8V79C634yrs4Y
No, because we have done enough. We need to focus down reducing china and others carbon
@8TV3C7F4yrs4Y
Yes, but slowly not all at once
@8TN4DZL4yrs4Y
Little bit of regulation, but not much
@8TMNJSM4yrs4Y
No, put regulations down ok things like companies dumping waste into the ocean.
@8TMMZFB4yrs4Y
Increase funding for technology and research on tec that can remove carbon from the atmosphere
@Lance13474yrs4Y
No, instead pressure other countries with high emissions to cut theirs down.
@8THJPBQ4yrs4Y
No but we should look into other options than electric, like nuclear or alternative fuels. That way we can keep existing jobs as well as the internal combustion engine.
@8TBG3RG4yrs4Y
No. The government should encourage things such as recycling and invest in ways for plastic to be recycled instead of making any regulations
@8T9QHJM4yrs4Y
They should invest in better alternatives to deal with climate change before making regulations
@8T89KGR4yrs4Y
We need to save the soils of the world
@8T63MWF4yrs4Y
Yes, but should not take precedence over current issues that are more important.
@8SZRP424yrs4Y
No, but give more opportunities to prevent it.
@8SW94594yrs4Y
The private market is going to outpace the government's ability to lower carbon emissions and innovated realistic alternatives to fossil fuels. Based on the government's lack of fiscal responsibility and leadership capabilities, they should stay out of the way and allow entrepreneurship to do what it always does: innovate.
@8ST2PQC4yrs4Y
Need to protect forested lands and not over grow cities
@8SSCD6FRepublican4yrs4Y
Everyone can do small things that can make a difference. But until there is a reliable source of energy that isn’t fossil fuels, we can’t not rely on them
@8SQ76F54yrs4Y
Global warning is a natural occurrence but it is at a accelerated rate due to carbon emissions
@8SMN8384yrs4Y
Use nuclear if you really care
@8SJVDJR4yrs4Y
No, government should remove most existing regulations
@8SJPR954yrs4Y
no its stupid screw the polar bears
@8SHFNP24yrs4Y
Yes and no, its more than just cars and factories. It’s a natural occurrence but these little things factor in as well.
@8SDR6GH4yrs4Y
No, global warming isnt a thing
@8SBVSSKLibertarian4yrs4Y
No, unless China does it also.
@8S7J4DZ4yrs4Y
Yes, but the Democrats aren't doing anything.
@DuncanMcChamness484yrs4Y
Yes, and research further into nuclear energy.
@8S3WG364yrs4Y
They should look into research to develop alternative energy sources, but increasing regulations doesn't solve the problem it just weakens the american economy.
@8RZDTZF4yrs4Y
Make Chiba reduce emissions
@8RXKGJJ4yrs4Y
Climate change is a natural process of the Earth
@8RX8LM44yrs4Y
Yes, we should push for nuclear energy instead
@8RX73NM4yrs4Y
I don't believe in a government.
@8RV74N34yrs4Y
Go nuclear, 0 carbon emissions, France does it, and in Japan with its nuclear power plant, still hasn’t killed anyone
@8RR9VHX4yrs4Y
No Shana should be able to take care of that other countries
@8RK89R24yrs4Y
I believe the government shouldn't force anything that takes away the freedom of owning something.
@8RGXC9J4yrs4Y
No, free market driven solutions outpace regulation driven solutions.
