This is in total opposition to the US commitment under the Paris Agreement to achieve a 50-52 percent emissions reduction below 2005 levels by 2030, and net-zero by 2050. These projections show that without additional policies or incentives, the US is very much in danger of not meeting our climate goals.

Despite the IRA’s substantial assist to emission cuts, we will need additional policies to push emissions 50% below 2005 levels. A mid-August 2022 report from a Princeton research group, concluded that IRA would close two-thirds of the remaining emissions gap between current policy and the nation’s 2030 climate target (50% below 2005).

I also wrote a post on this topic in 2005 ( Naturally trendy? ), and even if it is a blog, it could provide some clues for Dagsvik and Moen.
