We need to be tamping down fossil fuel extraction, not ramping it up. Approving Willow - much like his giving more oil drilling permits than Trump did - directly contradicts Biden's expressed concern that climate change is an "existential threat." Green energy investment in the Inflation Reduction Act is roughly 5% of the money we give to the Defense Dept., and Defense is the single largest emitter or greenhouse gasses on the planet. We need an emergency level just transition from a dirty economy to a clean economy. Saying how much you care about a problem while actually doing everything to perpetuate it is a road to disaster - for the planet and for us. #disruptthecorrupt theguardian.com/us-news/2023…

Must be nice to have plenty of money and not worry about inflation.

“We don’t need to prop up the fossil fuel industry with new, multi-year projects that are a recipe for climate chaos,” Gore added. “Instead, we must end the expansion of oil, gas and coal and embrace the abundant climate solutions at our fingertips.”... AL GORE

Biden has no concern about our planet. He still refuses to declare a climate emergency. We need a President who will. #Marianne2024

This tweet alone disqualifies you as president. Less fossil fuel? Isnt that the issue now? You gonna go nuclear instead? How about some actual policy?

Suggest a Coalition Party. Invite all parties & political organizations, NGOs, to participate. People repping more than one. Hold a Convention this year to set up including a binding Party Platform. Means to craft a congruent approach w/reach&range of all our political concerns.

Doing that would tank the economy because the working class are already struggling to make ends meet. They would spend less on other goods and companies would lay off people as a result.

Just wait until the demand for lithium reaches that of oil. Trading one earth raping demand for another is not going green.

Al Gore must not have listened to Tesla’s recent investor day. Internal combustion engines and oil furnaces will be extinct by 2035. Just because electric cars and power will be better and cheaper.

Shilling disproven U.N. lies merely proves you're a globalist tool.
