"Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored" -Aldous Huxley
Once again, the Biden Administration demonstrates that it lacks a basic comprehension of what it takes to drive (literally) a contemporary industrial society. Their new plans to push for a net-zero freight sector ignore physics, supply chains, and basic economics while naively claiming a host of faux environmental benefits.
In this short video I filmed for the Mackinac Center YouTube channel, I discuss a few facts that were raised by representatives of the American trucking industry in testimony to the Senate last year. Despite hearing those concerns from the industry, the Administration appears to have ignored their reasonable input and is pushing forward with its doomed-to-fail net-zero plan.
Building on this momentum, the Biden-Harris Administration is today announcing a first-ever national goal to transition to a zero-emissions freight sector for truck, rail, aviation and marine, along with a commitment to develop a national zero-emissions freight strategy.
This is the first video on this issue, I have more coming soon, along with a write-up on why the Administration’s plans simply won’t work.
