Can we just stop Blue and Grey from receiving subsidies? Like, if Shell thinks they can get it to work they can do it, but they can do so at their own expense. Focus the money towards projects that are definitely helping, and let the private market figure out a way to prove the probably greenwashing actually meets zero emissions.
That would take changing the law. You’d need a lot more Democrats in the House and Senate to do that.

Well yes, but it’s the sort of thing that could be spun as a compromise with the Republicans in that you are rolling back a ‘green’ energy subsidy, presumably in an effort to get something else passed that’s more effective.
The biggest accomplishment of the Republican-controlled House has been to choose a design for a pin.
They’re not going to be able to do something like that.
