I also heard Zaidi say that the problem with this bill is not that it "makes the fossil fuel industry happy" (the industry could be happy doing clean energy, he noted). The problem, he implied, is that the bill expands fossil fuels, which is not "directionally consistent" with 1.5C. 2/n
Finally, I very much appreciated Zaidi's pushing back against the suggestion that the "environmental movement" is blocking climate progress. I find this a divisive & inaccurate framing of the US climate problem, and I was thrilled to hear this framing rejected by the White House. 3/3
