The world needs more planet-heating fossil fuel, not less, Donald Trump’s newly appointed energy secretary, Chris Wright, told oil and gas bigwigs on Monday.
“We are unabashedly pursuing a policy of more American energy production and infrastructure, not less,” he said in the opening plenary talk of CERAWeek, a swanky annual conference in Houston, Texas, led by the financial firm S&P Global.
Wright, a former fracking executive who was picked by Trump to the crucial cabinet position, also attacked the Joe Biden administration for focusing “myopically on climate change”.
The clown show continues.
Since when is solar and wind power “less energy”?
They’re gonna Blade Runner 2049 this bitch.
They are so transparently stupid and vile at this point that I’m not going to get emotionally invested any longer. Just remember that it was these assholes and the assholes that voted them in when the planet is dying.
Hey, he’s not wrong, I can think of a couple old fossils I’d like to see experience internal combustion if you know what I mean.
moronically focused on producing more lethal fossil fuels!!!
Fossil fuels are renewable too… just not in the timescale that works for humanity
America: produces more oil than ever before and more than basically every other country
GOP: that’s not enough!
We’re fucked aren’t we?
