It increases future risk for heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory disease for today’s children when they become adults. These increases in deaths from ambient air pollution reflect increasing emissions from cars, trucks, and buses, as well as the widespread use of coal to generate electricity in India. It is reducing children’s IQ.

The Biden Administration dropped a new rule limiting tailpipe emissions from passenger vehicles yesterday, and you know what that means. Rather, it requires carmakers to meet tough new average emissions limits across their entire product line. Yes, it's lying season! I want to focus on one particular egregious lie. It very much is not.

This can be achieved by balancing emissions of carbon dioxide with its removal (often through carbon offsetting) or by eliminating emissions from society (the transition to the “post-carbon economy”).
