      largest climate change legislation in human history

      doubt

      I guess that would make sense if you didn’t know anything about any other country’s climate legislation, which is presumably the case here.

      The high-speed rail (HSR) network in the People’s Republic of China (PRC) is the world’s longest and most extensively used – with a total length of 45,000 kilometres (28,000 mi) by the end of 2023

      How about this?

        They probably either never heard of it or think it’s fake potemkin train or are so brainwashed with car culture they think it’s detrimental to China’s development.

      What the hell do they mean by “largest climate legislation in world history?”

      I propose to the congress of ME that we make the entire world use renewable energy by 2069. 100% yes vote, the motion passes. There. I just passed the biggest bit of climate legislation in world history. Sure, literally nothing will happen due to this, but I passes the legislation. Which is apparently enough for libs. Completely empty promises with no goal on how to achieve them.

      largest climate legislation in world history

      taking this at face value for a second - real shit? you mean to tell me that more climate legislation is being passed today than was being passed by the Roman Senate? The court of the Kangxi emperor was not passing climate legislation offering tax incentives to businesses in impoverished communities that can reduce their carbon footprint by 14% over 5 years?

        Mongol and colonial euro empires killed so many people it had measurable effect on climate. I guess we know whose tradition US climate legislation do really uphold.
