I attended the U.N. climate summit in Scotland this week and have some bad news: the left’s anti-science solutions to reduce emissions aren’t going away any time soon.
Barack Obama spoke at the conference, calling Republicans “anti-science” for daring to suggest that maybe we should focus on solutions that work. Solutions like carbon capture, nuclear energy, and natural gas - solutions that keep the lights on while also helping America continue to lead the world in emissions reduction.
And, no surprise here, the Washington Post agrees with Barack Obama. Luckily, I had the chance to debate a Washington Post reporter who accused Republicans of being anti-science when it comes to climate change. You should really check out our exchange at the link above.
The science is clear - the world is not going to end in 12 years because of climate change, and the left’s obsession with solar and wind will do NOTHING to actually reduce emissions and will likely increase global emissions.
Why? Because by shutting down American oil and gas, we are forcing the world to rely on energy from polluters like Russia. Russian natural gas has 41% HIGHER carbon emissions than American natural gas.
It’s time for serious solutions that protect American energy jobs and American energy independence, while also reducing emissions. We can do both.
I going to keep up this fight against the radical environmentalists. But I need your help.
