"Anti-fossil fuel SCC relies on garbage models, ignores carbon benefits and hurts the poor.
“If you could pick just one thing to reduce poverty, by far you would pick energy,” Bill Gates has said.
“Access to energy is absolutely fundamental in the struggle against poverty,” World Bank VP Rachel Kyte and Nobel Prize Laureate Dr. Amartya Sen agree.
The UN Development Program also calls energy “central to poverty reduction.”
And International Energy Agency Executive Director Dr. Fatih Birol notes that
“coal is raising living standards and lifting hundreds of millions of people out of poverty.”
In fact, all fossil fuels are doing so.
...They are essential for electricity and life, and over the past 250 years they more than doubled average life expectancy in countries that took advantage of them.
But the Obama Administration and radical environmentalists despise fossil fuels and used every tactic they could devise to eliminate them.
One of their
most important schemes was the “social cost of carbon.”

"I even saw some people, “Yeah, those Trump rallies, audience size at rallies doesn’t mean anything.” Russia had nothing to do with creating the Democrat Party mind-set. They weren’t even concerned about the Russians. They weren’t concerned about a thing. In fact, for most of the Democrat Party’s history, they have loved the Soviet Union and then the Russians, as they love all totalitarian regimes. Russia did not write Obamacare, which got so many Trump voters to the polls. Russia did not kill Ambassador Stevens. Russia did not dictate our horrible response at Benghazi.
