Not for nothing, but waiting until the waning days and weeks of your presidency to take a trip to the Amazon and say this feels a little ... lackluster.
And exactly the kind of thing people are grilling the Democrats for after the election. Biden should have been saying this in his first year, not the 11th hour.
Exactly. Maybe someone could have mentioned this during election season if it was so important?
This was so important to me that I decided to only do it a month before I'm leaving.
It is so important to me that I help dropping bomb in two month that "... was equivalent to burning at least 150,000 tonnes of coal. The emissions from the first two months of the Gaza war exceeded the annual carbon footprint of over 20 climate-vulnerable nations."
It was watching you for the last 4 years, Joe.
He did a lot. The IRA law got a ton of green investments and enterprises going, including attracting businesses from across the globe. But that's all gone now with Trump.
Yet another handout to car dependency grifters. Nothing green about that.
It's maddening how well that shit works
You don't have to carry water for him anymore. He's not running.
Biden bragged about record oil production. Bragged.
Just like the last great savior did
Yup.
Americans are too lazy and dumb to pay attention. The majority thought Biden sucked and didn't accomplish anything. Couldn't be further from the truth.
We're a society of irresponsible voters and the decline we're about to experience is no one's fault but our own.
Wasn't this the administration bragging about approving a record number of fracking permits?
Lets see him be the first fracking-suporting president to drink the water in an area where fracking has permanently destroyed the groundwater with forever chemicals.
Who cares if he visits a rainforest. Thats utterly meaningless.
History is watching you fly a military escort to the amazon and back for a photo op you dip
History is watching an absolutely tone-deaf Democratic party doing their best PR work.
Read the room for once, Dems. This is not what we need right now.
I dont know what you are even trying to say
Lol.
We just voted against addressing climate change and, in fact, for making it worse.
Humans are going to destroy this planet. That is indisputable. The only question is if we'll have the means to leave for another one before it's too late.
To go where? If we can fix another planet, we can fix our own. If we can reach another planet, probably we could fix our planet. But we cant, because of money.
Will miss you Biden. I saw the policies youve tried and how hard you were filibusted on climate policies.
meaningless
Yes, Joe!
Do more shit for the next admin to immediately dismantle. At least to keep them busy for a few weeks.
At least to keep them busy for a few weeks.
itll take minutes to undo.
Oh so that's the context. I saw some Alt-Righters joking about how Biden "vanished in the rain forest never to be seen again"
There won’t be anyone left to read the history.
