As the horror of Russia’s war in Ukraine continues, our attention has shifted to the many ways we can starve Russias economic with the hope that we defeat it Vladimir Putin

One of the most important oil distributors in the entire world RestrictionsEven though Europe is not yet ready to ban all Russian oil companies, the move on Russian oil companies is a significant step in the right direction.
This has naturally raised questions about how we can fill in the void left behind by the Russian gas industry. It was a small amount of oil that the United States imports, but it was easy to get. To cut offHowever, these barrels are still needed to be filled with our product. Based on what we have seen, the expectation is that fossil fuel industries will continue to thrive. Boost outputTo fill the void. Oil prices have dropped and are now Around $96 per barrelBut, the average gasoline price will soon surpass the declining gas prices. $5 per gallonAccording to some estimates, it is approximately.

On the greenest holiday of all, St. Patricks Day it seems like a good day to discuss the importance and benefits of going green in the U.S. economy.
The partisan divide over the effects of climate changes has been a problem. The environment is the only issue that affects all Americans.
There are Lead pipesAll 50 states and all industrial polluters are responsible for poisoning Americans’ drinking water DumpingStorms can cause dangerous toxins so government watchdogs cannot catch them. Nine out of ten people are affected. Living in polluted areasThat’s it. one-thirdAir pollution can be attributed at least half of all deaths due to stroke, lung cancer, and heart disease. We know this. Increased floodingThe United States will spend $40 billion per year on climate change by 2050, and that, according the United Nations, is the largest single cost of global warming. The greatest threatThe modern society has seen more than any other time in its history.
Yet, not one Republican in Congress would support Biden’s Build Back Better plan. It had a large climate focus. They made absurd comments like Biden is worshiping all of this environmentalalism. Climate change is a godAs Sen. Marsha Blackburn

Although the senator may indulge in hyperbole, the truth is that environmentalism is a valid position. The physics of climate changes are not forgiving. Biden and his Administration have created an agenda that will address the current moment.
Take into account the green benefits of bipartisanship Infrastructure bill. Many Americans are on the path to clean water. The $55 billion investment by the administration will be used to increase access to clean water for families, businesses, and child care centers, and to eliminate lead service lines in communities across the country. There is also money to be spent. Legacy pollutionCleaning up Superfund sites and brownfield sites, reclaiming abandoned mins, and capping oil and gas wells that are left untouched.
Dozens and dozens of House Democrats have urged the Biden administration not to renegotiate negotiations on the issue. Climate provisionsThere are many reasons to support the Build Back better plan. The $550 billion budget was allocated to combating climate change. It would be used to research and develop low-carbon energy technologies such as clean hydrogen fuels, and remove carbon dioxide from our atmosphere. Businesses that invest in wind, solar, geothermal, batteries, and other clean energy technologies will see a huge economic benefit from the clean energy tax credits.
As we mentioned, electric cars (EVs) are a central part of the Biden plan and a potential solution to our oil dependency. When it comes to switching to electric vehicles, the price tag has always been a concern. Kelley Blue Book estimates that an EV would cost about $10,000 more than the industry median, but incentives can be offered. The cost of living is drastically reduced. The federal government offers a tax credit of $2,500 to $7.500 and lower fuel costs. This makes EVs 60 percent cheaper than an average internal combustion engine vehicle. This includes the cost of charging. These vehicles require their own infrastructure. The government will invest $7.5B to build the first national network for EV chargers along highway corridors. This will facilitate long-distance travel. Rural and remote areas will be served by the chargers. Disabled communities.
There are also policies to reduce carbon pollution in the industrial sector. How can we make steel and concrete in a zero-carbon manner? Fossil fuels are going to take a hit. The government is also willing to take a hit. To enterTo boost hydrogen production, where the private sector is not. The Department of Energy has set its sights on reducing the cost of hydrogen production by at least 80 percent over the next ten-year.
These are all possible with the support of the Biden climate agenda. They can make a big difference in the environment and have quantifiable financial benefits when you consider how much it will cost to pay for health care, social, and infrastructure.
Consider how important the environment is to you as you don your green gear or sip on a green beer. The United States should pay close attention to the situation in Ukraine and domestic problems like inflation. However, this does not mean that climate change can be ignored. The earth can’t wait, literally.
