Donald Trump’s win is a big victory for the American energy industry and for all Americans. The climate crazed don’t want to recognize the fact that more than 80% of the world’s energy comes from fossil fuels – coal, oil, and natural gas. They don’t want to admit that the use of all three are at record highs and are continuing to grow. Or that a thriving economy needs reliable, affordable, and abundant energy. Because the cost of energy is built into everything that we do, consume or use, even watching Netflix.
False climate fear has been used to drive very destructive, expensive energy policies. Trump recognizes this is a waste of money. Germany, Denmark, and the United Kingdom are farther down the path of adding wind and solar to their electric grids and their people are paying about triple our electric rates and theirs are climbing even higher. It is causing the deindustrialization of Germany.
