Trump’s energy secretary is the real deal<\/p>

I would like to endorse the confirmation of Trump’s new energy secretary Mr. Chris Wright, this gentleman understands science, energy and what climate change really is, yes indeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The answer to climate change is to adapt to climate change and to do that, more American energy is the solution. <\/p>

He was spot on during\u00a0his\u00a0senate hearing, there isn’t a dirty energy or a clean energy, there are different sources of energy with different tradeoffs. <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Fossil fuels being the core source of energy and renewable energy supplementing the dependence so that the fossil fuels last longer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If carbon dioxide is a problem why are the climate freaks not pushing for nuclear energy, especially the Caribbean, to get to net zero is a trillion dollar exercise. <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why are these same climate freaks not bashing down the Dragon Gas deal, if oil and gas is a problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spending trillions on less effective energy solutions has made energy more expensive, displaced jobs, and harmed American consumers.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Carbon dioxide is not a pollutant, greenhouse gases aren’t harmful, we need that heat to survive, having a cold earth is equally as bad if not worse. <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

What we need is more green carbon sinks to absorb that CO2, which is why Guyana is preserving their forests and going for the oil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The solar parks in Basdeo Panday’s world class airport is a waste of space by\u00a0Stuart Young, they could’ve put a parking lot there, or planted trees so it becomes a green space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The solar panels outside the goat shed in Tobago is another waste of space, they could’ve done the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
