The Left’s animus towards energy independence and corresponding human flourishing must be challenged.
This week at Davos, U.S. climate envoy John Kerry, claimed, “There isn't any country on the planet that isn't feeling and living the impacts of the climate crisis.”
While in Japan, President Joe Biden appeared to relish in high gas prices back home, remarking, “[When] it comes to the gas prices, we’re going through an incredible transition that is taking place that, God willing, when it’s over, we’ll be stronger and the world will be stronger and less reliant on fossil fuels when this is over.”
A new book from philosopher Alex Epstein, however, argues continued use of fossil fuels and its byproducts will positively impact our future.
Epstein’s new book, Fossil Future: Why Global Human Flourishing Requires More Oil, Coal, and Natural Gas--Not Less, masterfully makes the case for continued usage of coal, oil, and natural gas against so-called “renewables.”

One thing that's seen in Central Park are many tiny mountains (that's how I think of them) made of solid rock. They don't seems to belong there...but they are. They have a name but I can't recall it.
These "mountains",I recently learned,were deposited there thousands of years ago by the glacier that once enveloped what is now called "Manhattan".
Unless I'm mistaken that glacier disappeared long,*long* before the advent of the internal combustion engine but I don't see how that could be possible.
There is probably more humans (total weight) than dinosaurs (total weight) on this planet now. So if all humans die the bodies will decompose into human fossil fuels! lol
Were dinosaurs made of oil? Humans are mostly water as are most animals? lol
Only problem is that there is no such thing as a fossil fuel. Petroleum, yes.
Storing energy is always expensive, usually difficult and frequently dangerous. The beauty of fossil fuels that is they are made from the rays of light emitted from a fusion reactor 93 million miles away in space. And Mother Nature already has done the heavy lifting, capturing, converting and storing that energy in a relatively stable and easily transportable form.
How is it people don’t get what an elegant and economical solution this is?
There must have been trillions and trillions. 🙄
I for one can’t wait! I’m excited for the clown world heh.
THE CRISIS WE ARE FEELING IS THE ONE YOU AND YOUR "GREENIE CRIMINAL" BOZOS PERPETUATED ON US, BEGINNING ON NOVEMBER 3, 2020 WHEN YOU VIOLATED NUMEROUS ELECTION LAWS AND CHEATED DEMOCRATS INTO POWER!
“Unless I’m mistaken that glacier disappeared long,*long* before the advent of the internal combustion engine but I don’t see how that could be possible.”
You can see the striations from the glacier in some of the rocks in Central Park.
