Harrop: Biden using a both/and transition from oil to electric
By Froma Harrop / Creators.com
Donald Trump recently warned that Joe Biden would lead us into World War II, a conflict that ended almost 80 years ago. Another world event he may not be current on is America’s boom in oil production; never mind the green energy revolution.
“We are going to drill, baby, drill,” Trump said on a recent Fox News town hall.
Actually, America is now pumping oil in record amounts. The U.S. now accounts for 1 in every 8 barrels produced in the world. Prices are coming down, too.
As for Biden’s clean energy program, it foresees a transition away from planet-heating fossil fuels. It also recognizes we’re not there yet.
