Isn't it about time we started drilling the oil we have?
They're chasing Cuba away from the Florida coast and Alaska has ANWR,Which they are drilling at an angle? The Trans Alaska pipeline, which carries around 630000 barrels of oil a day from Alaska's North Slope and all the oil off the California Coast.
Point being that we have the oil, it's bureaucracy as usual thats keeping this country from working right.
But instead of drilling our own oil, we are depending more and more on middle east oil, we are spending billions in aid to Israel and Egypt. And what is it getting us, another day older and deeper in debt?
I'm all for the green energy push that Barry wants, but for economy, it's not going to work imho

I've been recycling for decades, damn I'm old, from steel off high rise construction, to mulch piles and aluminum cans.
I know corporate America is behind this, we had cars in the 80's that got 45 miles to the gallon, where's the progress?

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
