For the Biden administration, climate is everything, and everything is climate. The latest example of this single-minded obsession is a proposed amendment to the Federal Acquisition Regulation that would require “certain Federal contractors disclose their greenhouse gas emissions and climate-related financial risk and set science-based targets to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.”
And so, this effort to distort the federal supply chain would be all cost and no benefit, even under the assumptions underlying the proposal. Benefits for taxpayers from an economical and efficient procurement system? Who cares about them? In its desperation to lead the international climate industry and to curry favor with the interest groups ideologically opposed to fossil fuels, the administration has shunted aside the requirements of the Administrative Procedure Act, which provides that proposed rules be published in the Federal Register and that interested parties be given a meaningful opportunity to offer comments, to which the agency proposing the rule must respond.
