EPA cracks down on trucking industry to push an all-electric fleet
2022-12-28
Posted by:DarthVader

#6  OK, so the trucking industry needs to sue the EPA. Sue them to do an environmental impact study and report on the effects of a nation transfer of energy to the grid. The study will show there is not enough energy to heat homes, let alone fuel trucks. So they will have to build power plants. for that they will need environment studies as Nuclear is the only option. Those studies take decades before building and a decade to build. Also, the EPA needs to study downstream effects of lithium in this nation and how its mined.

The point here is they can get all the new directives stopped for decades by clogging them up in their own bureaucracies...
