The legislation related to hydrofluorcarbons was passed in 1990. Freon was being phased out over the years. Why didn't the AFP bunch bitch in 2019 when even more restrictive rules on Freon when into effect?
Irrelevant to this discussion. Those of us with an education are discussing the bare shelves and Biden's precise role on all of that.
None of Biden's policies have reduced domestic oil production. Keystone was nowhere near complete and was being tied up in court by Eminent Domain lawsuits because farmers didn't want the pipeline across their land. Would you have confiscated their land?
You've already lost that argument.

It takes profound naïveté for Biden not to recognize how his and his team’s anti-oil animus has driven fuel costs skyward. In fewer than 11 months, this administration has:
- Killed the Keystone XL pipeline.
- Threatened to plug the Canada-to-Michigan Enbridge Line 5 pipeline.
- Halted oil leases in a sliver of Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
- Stopped oil and gas leases on federal lands.
- Proposed a methane tax that could cost this industry up to $10 billion annually.
- Encouraged left-wing activists to pressure financiers to defund oil companies.
And how is this multifront war on oil working out? As predicted.
In October, US oil drilling had plunged 38 percent versus October 2019, before COVID-19 derailed the booming Trump-GOP economy. With supply down and demand up (as COVID-related instability has eased), regular unleaded gasoline retailed on Oct. 25 for $3.38 per gallon compared with $2.59 on Oct. 28, 2019 — up 30.5 percent. On those dates, the New York Mercantile Exchange’s price for West Texas Intermediate crude was $83.94 per barrel, versus $56.65 — up 48.2 percent. Likewise, natural-gas drilling had slid 28.9 percent while prices were $5.90 per million BTUs vs. $2.45 — up 140.8 percent.
The Civilian Climate Corps legislation puts people to work making repairs to buildings to make them more energy efficient.
Your post argues that the people working on those projects will be "anti-energy" activists. Pretty stupid claim...
Again, you're trying to change the subject. The empty shelves have nothing to do with making buildings more energy efficient.
The combination of runaway inflation (caused by Biden flooding the money market with welfare dollars, paying people not to work) and soaring gasoline prices (which is also Biden's fault) is the reason for the bare shelves in stores across the fruited plain. And none of that would have occurred on Trump's watch.
Sometimes, it's better to have a mean talking business genius rather than a senile
