The Importance Of Fossil Fuels

electric car batteries disposalThere has been a lot of talk lately about penalizing fossil fuel companies because of climate change or global warming. Democrats, especially, do not seem to understand at all some basic facts about energy.

Here are a few things to consider [bold, links added]:


1. No one has ever proven that increasing carbon dioxide will endanger life on Earth.

2. All plants need carbon dioxide to survive. The more carbon dioxide there is the better they grow. The level of carbon dioxide now at 420 parts per million is at the low end. Plants really need more than that, but a lot is locked up in limestone deposits and in the ocean.

It has been said that if we quit producing oil today, in ten years we would have little need for electricity (as the insulation and wiring wore out and roads crumbled.)

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
