> The shutting down of pipelines, ending of fossil fuel leasing, etc. sends a market signal to producers and traders that the US is hostile towards the industry, leading the producers to cut production and maintain their profits. That's the point isn't it? From an environmentalist perspective, policy that discourages fossil fuel production makes renewables more economically attractive by comparison, encouraging attrition away from fossil fuels into renewables, thus reducing emissions. > Best option would be to have a diverse portfolio of energy production: oil, natural gas, solar, wind, hydroelectric, and nuclear. Pretty much everyone can agree with this statement, the devil is in the details as usual. |
