Thank You, Fossil Fuels

Today’s Black Lives Matter protests often include the claim that fossil fuel use is racist, because climate change will hurt the poor and minorities most. But minorities and the poor would be hurt even more if limits are put on fossil fuels. Not according New York U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. “There is no debate as to whether we should continue producing fossil fuels,” she says. No debate? This idiocy could only come from AOC, who put forward the lamebrain Green New Deal, the far-left monstrosity that if passed would whisk America back into the Dark Ages. Energy journalist Robert Bryce, who recently produced the documentary, Juice: How Electricity Explains the World, puts the debate in perspective. “Having electricity doesn’t always guarantee wealth, but not having it always means poverty.” He adds that moving to renewable energy is regressive and expensive, and will impact poverty-stricken Americans the most.
