It will be so good that America's President finally takes climate change seriously again, and he can lead the world rather than being left behind.
Can you explain how this helps with climate change? It just makes it more likely the oil at Cushing and other major terminals in Texas will be either domestic or from Venezuela/gulf states. It does not lower the amount of consumption of gasoline.
Sure. Domestic/Venezuelan/Gulf gas is way, way better for the environment than obscenely dirty tar sands oil. Everybody knows we're going to use oil in the 2020s, but we can at least not use tar sands oil. It's like the difference between anthracite and lignite coal. If we must use coal, using the former exclusively would least be less bad.
And cutting back where we can.
I have my misgivings towards Biden, but between AOC writing his climate policy and the fact that he's made a green recovery one of his key pledges, I think we're in decent hands, if not safe ones.
