NYT doing its thing again. From the party platform:
To reach net-zero emissions as rapidly as possible, Democrats commit to eliminating carbon pollution from power plants by 2035 through technology-neutral standards for clean energy and energy efficiency. We will dramatically expand solar and wind energy deployment through community-based and utility-scale systems, including in rural areas. Within five years, we will install 500 million solar panels, including eight million solar roofs and community solar energy systems, and 60,000 wind turbines
I mean there’s more. Not all of it is as specific or aggressive as that, but some is. As they usually do as pertains to US political coverage the NYT is pretty much just making stuff up in this story.
I think NYT is correct in this sense: I haven’t heard Harris herself say much about ‘climate change’ let alone ‘global warming’.
We all get that. Candidates tend to stay away from talking about stuff that makes people feel bad because it sticks to them. But I’ve not heard her even address expanding renewables as rapidly as possible, or even heat pumps. No doubt that’s the advice she’s getting. One reason is that the cars we’re driving are a major source of CO2. Nobody’s touching that elephant.
“Vice President Harris has yet to detail her own plan” is literally a lie. I linked to her plan.
