WTF is a "climate team"?

A climate team is a group of leaders in the admin who coordinate their various departments and responsibilities to help clean up the environment. Very important work indeed.

Define 'pollution'. What has this got to do with 'climate change'? Define 'climate change'. Buzzword fallacies.

Electric cars are essentially coal fired cars. You gotta charge 'em from somewhere, like a nearby coal fired power plant, and recharging the car takes hours, while refueling a gasoline car takes only a few minutes.

There is no such thing as 'climate science'. Science has no theories about what cannot be defined.

Biden has to win first.

Yeah. Wow. Coal. I guess no one thought that through. (Good thing you're on top of this)
 
What is a "climate team?"

It's sort of like a gang rape, only on the subject of energy policy and related issues. You get screwed hard and repeatedly by it.

President-elect Joe Biden formally introduced his climate team on Saturday, saying that the people he has selected will lead his administration's "ambitious plan to address the existential threat of our time, climate change."

Biden announced his intention to nominate Rep. Deb Haaland, D-N.M., to serve as secretary of the interior; former Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm to head the Department of Energy; Michael Regan as EPA administrator; Brenda Mallory as chair of the Council on Environmental Quality; Gina McCarthy as national climate adviser; and Ali Zaidi as deputy national climate adviser.

All told, the members of the team that Biden announced on Saturday illustrate an agenda markedly different from that of the Trump presidency.

The Trump administration has gutted a number of environmental protections and the president himself has questioned climate science.
The president-elect and his incoming team have made clear that they plan to try to undo or block many of the Trump administration's initiatives, as well as to prioritize communities of color and low-income communities, which have been disproportionately impacted by climate change and pollution.

During his remarks, Biden compared the climate threat to that of the coronavirus pandemic, and promised to take action.

"Just like we need a unified national response to COVID-19, we need a unified national response to climate change," he said. "We need to meet the moment with the urgency it demands as we would during any national emergency."

Biden also stressed the diversity of his emerging Cabinet, describing it as "a Cabinet that looks like America, that taps into the best of America, that opens doors and includes the full range of talents that we have in this nation."

If confirmed by the Senate, Haaland, a member of the Laguna Pueblo, would be the first Native American to lead the Interior Department. The agency has responsibility for not only managing the nation's public lands, but also honoring the United States' treaties with the Indigenous peoples from whom those lands were taken.

"This moment is profound when we consider the fact that a former secretary of the interior once proclaimed his goal to 'civilize or exterminate us,' " Haaland said in her remarks. "I'm a living testament to the failure of that horrific ideology."

Haaland is not the only member of the climate team that would break barriers. Regan, Biden's pick to run the Environmental Protection Agency, would be the first Black man to hold that role. And Mallory, whom Biden will nominate to head up the Council on Environmental Quality, will be the first Black person to hold that position, if she is confirmed by the Senate.

You know how the left is. It takes a village where kids are concerned. Now it takes a team to change the weather. ;)

I believe that it's a team assembled to address the most important issue of our day.

And it is. Without a healthy, sustainable planet, everything else is meaningless.

What is this "most important issue"? What's wrong with our planet that needs fixing? How do you suggest fixing it?

The Demonkkkrats are, genius... They want to ultimately eliminate the use of hydrocarbons (or what Liberal speakers call "fossil fuels"). They believe that they can somehow power the entire world (which is ever increasing its demand for electricity) purely on "green energy" (IOW, wind and solar). Under that scenario, there won't be enough supply to meet the demand. See the regular rolling blackouts in the SOTC for details...

I predict you will not get an answer but I'll attempt to answer for him.

. It's dying. Hurricanes, snow storms, colder than normal winters due to polar vortices, earthquakes, volcanos, tornadoes, thunderstorms, forest fires, floods and locusts.

. It will not be easy. Biden has assembled a first of its kind climate team to defeat Mother Nature. We have to come up with a plan otherwise there will be on going hurricanes, snow storms, colder than normal winters due to polar vortices, earthquakes, volcanos, tornadoes , locusts , floods and thunderstorms. People will DIE if we don't act NOW.

Einstein, that will take a long long time. Certainly you can see that? It's a long transition. And we will still have fossil fuel.
