Watch: Biden’s Deputy Energy Sec. evades Sen John Kennedy’s climate questions – ‘If we spent $50 trillion…by 2050…how much is that going to reduce world temps?’

Sen John Kennedy (R-Lousiana) “I’m gonna ask again, maybe I’m not being clear: if we spent $50 trillion to become carbon neutral by 2050 in the United States of America, how much is that going to reduce world temperatures?”

Dept of Energy Deputy Sec David Turk: “This is a global problem so we need to reduce our emissions and we need to do everything we can –”

Kennedy: “How much if we do our part is it going to reduce world temperatures?”

Turk: “We’re 13% of global emissions–”

..

Kenndy: “You don’t know do ya Mr. Secretary?”

Turk: “So we’re 13% of global emissions–”

“If you know why won’t you tell me?”

“You don’t know do ya? You just want us to spend $50 trillion and you don’t have the slightest idea whether it’s going to reduce world temperatures,” Kennedy said.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
