More fossil fuels

Good managers change their positions when new infomation presents himself. WASHINGTON — Despite President Biden’s pledge to aggressively cut the pollution from fossil fuels that is driving climate change, his administration has quietly taken actions this month that will guarantee the drilling and burning of oil and gas for decades to come. Sen. Joe Manchin Friday lauded the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) for reversing a February policy statement on gas pipelines, after slamming it and demanding its chairman do his "damn job" earlier this month.  Now is the time for Biden to use his executive powers to increase the production of fossil fuel so that prices will come down and Europe can move away from Russian oil and gas. This is a win-win. The people pushing the green new deal cannot explain how that can replace fossil fuels but they seem to wield a lot of power. Now if we can just get the administration to look at thorium nuke plants we will be on the road to dealing with climate change.
