I’m not defending Biden, so don’t treat this as me trying to convince you either way or like I actually like Biden which I don’t because he is a republican masquerading as a centrist, but Biden did indefinitely halt giving oil companies LNG export terminal contracts in the US. In other words, no more infrastructure dedicated to LNG export until the entire process is reviewed and even if it becomes allowed again it will likely be much more limited.

Now this didn’t immediately seem huge to me, but Bill Mckibben who is a climate writer seems to think this is one of the biggest environmental wins of the Biden administration. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/feb/07/joe-biden-big-oil-lng-permits

All this being said, I don’t disagree with the spirit of what you are saying about Biden, he is an awful relic of the past with absolutely no vision or policy goals behind manage the status quo.

Also yeah obviously Fuck Trump
