So common sense with technology and advancements making a product better and cost efficient is the way that the world advances. Let’s be stupid. Instead of holding onto fossil fuels till alternate energy is more cost effective because of improved science and product efficiency - let’s just eliminate fossil fuels that made US #1 in lowering our carbon footprint in the world. Sad and frustrated with 2 months the explosive communist agenda that is making this country unsafe and imploding from within. When does China or Russia take over? They could care less about alternate energy or their people. It’s all about the power. Thankfully previous 4 years we built up and improved the military cause we are going to need it.

WE have hundreds of years of fossil fuels left. So, no hurry. Poor energy storage problems make wind and solar a waste of time. And building all those solar panels and windmills has a major carbon footprint, if that worries you. See Michael Moore’s movie about the renewable scam.
Current battery and solar cell production causes massive pollution with all the strip mining it caused in China.
Govt forced nuke energy on us before it was ready and now we don’t use the much safer systems available because past experience.
Please use real science…

Which fossil fuels?
Which communist agenda?
As far as energy is concerned I think those on the left like myself have a duty to try to educate our fellow left-leaning individuals on the benefits of nuclear.
in fact westinghouse AP1000 plants use passive systems for safety

Exactly. Alternate energy is about the health of our people. Some countries don’t care and would rather exploit their people’s health for money and power. Unfortunately, the same can be said about many Americans who have an overreactive negative view on the progress our country has made on renewable energy.
Under Trump we had energy independence and less carbon emissions.

Banning contracts with natural gas plants to appease the Green Energy cultists absolutely means your state is serious about averting another summer of blackouts. The green energy movement is solely about control, nothing else.
Environmental groups had raised concerns about earlier versions of the utility commission’s proposal because it allowed contracts for power from rebuilt or re-powered natural gas plants. That provision was dropped from the final order approved Thursday.
that doesnt change what i said one bit
look at reality, not left-wit twitter feeds

The “years of fossil fuels left” is an interesting topic. Many of those projections (tell me, what projections?) are based on “current rates of consumption.”
But here’s an idea: Let’s extract as fast as possible and consume as fast as possible, a recognizably finite resource. The faster we produce it, the better, right?

How did Trump achieve energy independence for the USA?
Opened regulations and promoted exports internationally.
As seen in Texas so does fossill fuels
Independence? Is Canada the 51st state?

If the US was energy independent than why the huge need for Keystone and XL pipelines?

Yes. And lets do it before we prove we have the ability to survive without them. What an idiotic plan.
