Energy Sec Granholm Gets Flummoxed When Asked About Biden’s Net Zero Agenda
by Nick Pope 23 hours ago
Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm struggled to answer a basic question from Republican Utah Sen. Mike Lee about the effects of the Biden administration’s massive climate agenda on Tuesday. [emphasis, links added]
The Biden administration has a stated goal of having the entire American economy reach “net-zero” emissions by no later than 2050 to fight global climate change.
Lee asked Granholm how much the administration’s “net-zero” agenda would bring down global temperatures over time if realized in full, but Granholm could only manage to describe the broader purpose of the “net-zero” agenda rather than specific projections for changes in global temperatures.
“I’d like to get a yes or no answer out of this one if you can. Yes or no, does the Biden administration support a transition to net zero?” Lee asked Granholm, to which the secretary answered in the affirmative.

She became flummoxed because she has been given a job she’s unqualified to do. Where in her résumé is she even remotely qualified to be energy secretary? The only thing she knows about energy and energy production is that she hates it
