Original: Every fraction of a degree matters. ⚠️ The bipartisan energy bill tearing the climate movement apart https:// grist.org/
A bipartisan energy permitting bill in the United States is splitting the climate movement, according to Grist. Supporters argue faster permitting is needed to build renewable energy infrastructure, while opponents warn the bill could smooth the way for fossil fuel projects and weaken environmental review. Activists are debating whether the compromise advances or undermines climate goals.
Why now: Debate over whether permitting reform helps or harms climate action is currently dividing advocacy groups in the US
