The world needs more planet-heating fossil fuel, not less, Donald Trump’s newly appointed energy secretary, Chris Wright, told oil and gas bigwigs on Monday.
“We are unabashedly pursuing a policy of more American energy production and infrastructure, not less,” he said in the opening plenary talk of CERAWeek, a swanky annual conference in Houston, Texas, led by the financial firm S&P Global.
Wright, a former fracking executive who was picked by Trump to the crucial cabinet position, also attacked the Joe Biden administration for focusing “myopically on climate change”.
I’m so happy my wife and I don’t have kids, and I feel sorry for all my friends. It was a fun ride.
Same. I also feel bad for my two nephews who are both in their 20’s. One of them used to talk about raising a family & being a stay at home dad. He hasn’t talked like that in about 5 years now.
My nephew, who’s 22, is having a kid. It was planned with his girlfriend. I was shocked when I heard.
Same here.
