I stand with Greta on this issue too. We need to drastically reduce our use of fossil fuels to reduce the influence of the seventh century barbarians who matter in this world only because they have oil. Keep up the fight - develop new energy sources that will draw the fangs of the Middle East.

I suspect we can get a lot of people behind slashing our use of fossil fuels. It’s just a question of salesmanship and common sense. Do the research now, but don’t cut our energy use without an economically-viable alternative in place.

As long as oil is plentiful and cheap it would be an economic mistake. For what? To satisfy retards?

We don’t need new energy sources.

The US has enough oil to last us for hundreds of years.
