Opinion: California’s climate alarmism has put America at risk
 
Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) once fancied himself climate warrior-in-chief. California’s governor, the would-be heir to the White House, spent the better part of his tenure demonizing the oil and gas industry, waging regulatory war on refineries, and touting apocalyptic “just transitions” away from reliable energy.
 
Through an array of coordinated cases, Newsom has been using climate lawfare as a way to impose his extreme energy agenda on California.

In classic Sacramento fashion, he courted applause from the global climate elite while treating America’s energy providers as a public nuisance and their workers as collateral damage.

Now, reality has come a-knockin’ — and it’s bringing $5-per-gallon (and climbing) gas with it.

Self-inflicted ... required propietary state blend of gasoline and regulated the refiners that produce it into closure.  Never took Economics 101.

Smuggling gas from Arizona, Nevada, and Oregon will be another potential organized crime racket.

The Commerce Department, NIST, the Department of Energy, etc., should establish a single, year-round, national blend of gasoline to increase the efficiency, lower the cost, and increase the fungibility of America's gasoline supply.

The Defense Production Act should be invoked to build or complete energy trasmission projects to states and localities with sensitive Defense installations.

The Global Climate Change Nonsense has weakend the resilience and the scalability of the nation's energy infrastructure in the event of a Defense Emergency.
