It’s not enough to invest in clean energy if at the same time you’re ramping up dirty energy. “Look what we’re doing over here so you won’t notice what we’re doing over there.” Green energy investments here; more oil drilling permits and the Willow Project over there. That is NOT taking on Big Oil. Time to declare a climate emergency. Nothing less will answer to the crisis of our time.

Last year, Democrats passed our nation’s biggest-ever investment in fighting climate change—getting us on a path to lowering carbon emissions by 40%. And no matter what Big Oil has to say about it, I’ll keep working to make sure we tackle this crisis head on.

Ahem…have you looked at oil and gas futures? The middle class won’t be able to buy bread and eggs in the coming months

Renewables are great under limited circumstances, but we will always need Natural Gas for Base Load; and the 6,000 categories of products that require Oil & Gas, including Fertilizer

Actually it does in fact make sense to do both when you don’t want energy prices too high while clean energy struggles to scale to 100% due to insufficient battery & transmission infrastructure.

China exceeds USA in emissions unless we get them to reduce it is all kinda bogus

Luckily we have a current president who realizes that many people own gas powered cars, and the transition to EV cars requires a plan that doesn't gouge folks who can't afford to move forward. It's extremely immature to think that the transition to EV cars completes overnight
