So I'm supposed to believe that a certain party in the US wants to rip out all of our infrastructure reliant on oil and completely replace it with something new..because fossil fuels will destroy the world in 10 years.
Yet Norway, which is pumping out said oil and making billions of dollars in the process, is perfectly okay because they are using a fraction of it for renewable energy research?
Climate change has nothing to do with science and everything to do with politics if this is the case.
I don't think anybody says "Norway pumping all that oil is good, US pumping all that oil is bad".
What people are saying "Norway use of limited resource exploitation proceeds is good, every other government sucks at it even when not outright corrupt".
What is admired here is prudent fiscal management, a government that is apparently not corrupt and not sold out to corporate interests, and just a rare example of whole country looking further than their own nose.
You can object to the source of the money but you can't object to the way they use it.
Did they divest the fund of all monies that ultimately originated with oil or did they just switch some of their foreign investments? Because if they went ahead and kept all that money, this is the classic "I've got mine" theory of economics.
