The fossil fuel industry has made advocating alternative energy sources a liberal/conservative thing, and an ideological battle, when it should really be about a healthier, less toxic world.
The fossil fuel industry is destroying our planet and everything that we love.
It was really my experience at Standing Rock that was pretty pivotal for me because I saw how corporations were literally militarizing themselves against American citizens so that they could kind of maximize their profit margins on fossil fuels.
The high prices also highlight the fact that the U.S. is too heavily dependent on fossil fuels that we import from unstable parts of the world. To protect our national security, we must become more energy secure.
What has become clear from the science is that we cannot burn all of the fossil fuels without creating a very different planet.
Politicians can either keep listening to a small number of polluting fossil fuel companies, who’re keen to profit from keeping us hooked on oil, coal and gas, or they can listen to the majority of other voices from civil society to business calling for an urgent switch to low and zero carbon heat and power.
America’s prosperity has been built on cheap fossil fuel energy.
We must move away from our dependency on fossil fuels, and I am glad that GM has invested over $1 billion in hydrogen fuel cells cars to meet this goal.
All really worthwhile artists, creators, use the technology of their time, and anybody who doesn’t becomes immediately a fossil.
Renewable energy is not unaffordable as the fossil fuel giants would like us to believe.
