re: #301 Belafon
One of the things Biden is planning on doing is making the whole government responsible for responding to climate change, not just the EPA: m.dailykos.com
DoD is the largest fed energy user, and has led environmental progress from the beginning. USAF flew a B52 on biofuel more than 20 years ago, and the Army tested an electric HMMWV at about the same time. New construction and retrofitting have tackled HVAC waste since the 70s. They didn’t do it because they’re tree-huggers, they did it because energy is a national security must-do.
(OTOH, never ask a commander at Ft Jackson what he thinks of the Red-Cockaded Woodpecker.)
