On March 29, 2024, Good Friday, Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rolled out its new electric truck mandate, which will require that electric semi-trucks make up an increasing share of manufacturer sales from 2027 through 2032, similar to its recent rule for passenger cars.

WASHINGTON DC (03/20/2024) – As House Republicans bring a series of bills to the floor aimed at increasing domestic energy production and reducing energy costs for Americans, the Biden Administration moves another step closer this week to forcing the auto industry to shift exclusively to electric vehicles, another in the more than 200 actions the […]
The cost to consumers of two offshore wind projects expected to support New York’s self-imposed climate goals has more than doubled from their original estimates, which were high to begin with. Developers had threatened to cancel their offshore wind projects without higher prices, citing inflation, supply chain challenges and rising costs driven by the pandemic, Bidenomics […]
Supposedly, the reason for switching to electric vehicles from gasoline-powered vehicles is to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by using less gasoline and thus oil.
