"Carbon-capture technology can gather carbon dioxide from smokestacks or other industrial equipment, compress and liquefy it, and then pipe it to underground storage locations. This project, expected to start in 2026, would capture about 800,000 metric tons of carbon a year from producing iron used in steel, and bring Exxon’s (XOM) total project pipeline to more than 5 million tons a year."
"The findings from the WMO report, and other related climate reports, do not paint a picture of environmental catastrophe. Nor are they an excuse to take no action. Instead, these reports should catalyze policymakers and the private sector to double down on an innovation agenda."
Finding ways to relieve congestion is an opportunity to improve the quality of Americans’ lives and improve the state of the environment.
With the harmful effects of wildfires hitting the East Coast, now is the time to attract support from Members across the country to help keep people out of harm's way and protect the environment.
"After more than 20 years of negotiations, WTO members finally seem intent on reeling back the subsidies that fund these destructive practices. Last year, negotiators agreed to significantly curtail some fishing subsidies, including limiting or prohibiting them to 'Vessels or operators engaged in illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing or fishing-related activities in support of IUU fishing,' 'fishing or fishing-related activities regarding stocks that are overfished' and 'fishing or fishing-related activities on the unregulated high seas.'"
"Not only can we make further progress on developing and deploying the breakthrough technologies we need, but we can also spread economic and near-term environmental benefits across the globe as we do it. We can thank many for getting us here, and we will continue to rely on our diverse and bipartisan partners to keep pushing us forward."
"Through regulation, the Biden administration wants to put the U.S. on a glide path to California’s rule to eliminate sales of new gasoline-powered vehicles altogether by 2035. Just as many Americans enjoy driving electric vehicles, others prefer gasoline-powered cars. Their choice of cars should be preserved."
"Capitalism also protects the environment because it creates wealth. When people aren't worried about starving or freezing, they get interested in protecting nature. That's why capitalist countries have cleaner air."
As Congress looks to lower costs for Americans and drive energy innovation, it would be wise to embrace pro-growth tax policies like immediate expensing and expanding opportunities for privately-funded research and development.
"Small-scale fishing communities tend to regulate themselves in a proactive way to ensure sustainable harvests: The regulators are the fishers, and the fishers are the regulators. The fishers in a certain area today will be the same fishers in that same area tomorrow, the next day and the next year. It is in their interest to catch enough to make a living but not so much as to deplete next year’s catch."
