Why the scare quotes? Are we still pretending climate change isn't real?

The rest of your point is totally valid (CAFE is a textbook example of well-intentioned regulations backfiring spectacularly).

But the climate denier nonsense kinda spoils the message.



> Are we still pretending climate change isn't real?

We are pretending that what the government is interested in isn't climate change.


I guess it would be clearer if the scare quotes where around the whole "saving us from climate change".
