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 got a comment removed for saying France should gift the US a guillotine… Just as a gesture. The bad thing here is that mods remove stuff and the user isn’t notified. I think that’s shitty. Also they state -removed because of rule 3, but don’t say what rule 3 is, so I decided rule 3 is being too cool.
