Deviation

 

Deviation

The Biden administration’s strange, costly, and coercive crusade to replace internal combustion vehicles (ICVs) with electric vehicles (EVs) is disproportionate to its minuscule climate impact. 

The American Enterprise Institute’s Benjamin Zycher says the EPA’s own assumptions project that the new regulations will mitigate global warming by 0.023 degrees Celsius by 2100. Because the standard deviation of the Earth’s surface temperature record is 0.11 degrees Celsius, “that effect would not be detectable.”

Not detectable.

The debatable casual conclusions of difficult and complex measurements nonetheless have become gospel. And the political response is so out of proportion that one suspects other influences. (One is not understanding the math.)

But apparently, there arises a moment when we stop following the science.
