things they want to do is to end fossil fuel use in 10 years. the problem is not taxes in this matter, okay? the problem is physics. if it were possible to get off fossil fuels with our current technology, we would have done that there is plenty of money to be had for the first person to figure that out. it s just that the physics isn t there yet. but why is this not about the environment and about progressivism? the best way, the only way really right now with the technology we have in order to get off fossil fuels is to add more nuclear power but, guess what? in the green new deal nukes banned and they can t say within 10 years that they would be age to completely eliminate nuclear power all together. this is the stuff of dreams. but, also turns out to be a nightmare. tucker: you make such a good point. if yourr aim is to reduce carbon emissions we can debate whether that ought to be your aim. nuclear power as a factual

seeing in washington exerting their power over in the house chamber in particular. got it. abby phillip, thank you. that saga continues. let s talk about the green new deal. today it became real on capitol hill. freshman congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez and new york democrat along with massachusetts senator ed markey just unveiled their plan to tackle climate change and what it does is, it calls for a ten year initiative that would phase out fossil fuel use and overhaul the nation s infrastructure. the resolution so far calls for a shift to renewable energy, the creation of high wage jobs, the elimination of greenhouse gases, investment in wind and solar and public investments in vulnerable communities. climate change, climate change in our environmental challenges are one of the
is wiser. one of the things that happened when she announced his green new deal when they finally roll it out, they want initially when she first talked about it, they were going to end all fossil fuel use in ten years. the problem is not taxes. the problem is physics. we just don t have the technology to be able to do that yet. so what nancy pelosi is doing is she s giving them a little bit of room to run. you mentioned health care. for all. what is her chief advisor on health care tell privately, help companies? don t worry. we are really not going to do that. no problem. same thing on impeachment. she lets them run wild. talk about impeachment. in the meantime she s like yeah, were not doing that. it s a good thing she has a big margin in her caucus because she has people that are going to always vote very far left. she actually has been able to rein them in a little bit. juan: i think that s right. sandra, the question is, what happens with this energy and
the political officials last week denied the sentence and rejected, refused to endorse the scientific report at the heart of climate change here, along with strange bedfellows here, russia, saudi arabia, and kuwait and a couple of days later put on a side show promoting fossil fuel use and aberration for many seeing that here. no doubt the world is boiling fast and emissions are growing and planet has to change. the second problem we saw in the closing hours brazil home of the lungs of the earth, the amazon rain forest took issue with reforms how carbon is traded and complicated part of the emission system but one they wanted to see to their advantage and no longer be resolved until the next meeting next year. a loop hope some say was decided but i think you can t take away from the fact despite the sort of background noise of people trying to continue with the idea of denying climate change is a thing. they still managed to get this rule book through. i think that is possibly a cause
