In this special episode we go in depth in analyzing and disproving the Green Deal proposed by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. A small disclosure is that these are personal opinions and we are not necessarily saying what we are saying is what is right but rather what makes sense from what we believe. Our goal with this episode and the podcast in general is to support what is logical not promoting our own bias. Thank you!
