    Summary:

    The U.S. just handed the fossil fuel industry a big win. No matter how you look at it, that win will be short lived.

    Electric vehicles are already displacing millions of barrels of oil per day, saving hundreds of millions of metric tons of carbon dioxide from entering into the atmosphere.

    With or without U.S. support, the world will march on towards cleaner sources of energy.
