Fossil Fuels to the Rescue
Every year on Earth Day we hear dire news on how the health of our planet is deteriorating with no real solutions readily available to solve the dilemma. Author and energy theorist Alex Epstein, founder and president of the Center for Industrial Progress, opines that we should spend more time reflecting on how human progress has made Mother Earth a better place to live. “The secret is energy,” Epstein says. “Specifically, energy derived from fossil fuels–oil, coal and natural gas.These fuels power machines that allow us to transform our naturally hazardous environment into a far healthier environment.” Epstein expanded his thoughts in a recent visit to Prager University.
