The latest example of the desperate approach to CO2 reduction was the Orwellian "Inflation Reduction Act," which was rushed through Congress without any real discussion—and which in practice will enrich the green lobby while devastating our grid. https://t.co/jjgQ6MJUp8 — PolitiTweet.org

Low-carbon energy policy has also failed because it has been dominated by the false idea that the climate impact of rising CO2 levels from fossil fuel use constitutes a "climate emergency" requiring desperate, crash programs that inevitably punish America. — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
The anti-development "green energy" movement’s enthusiastic support for solar and wind is phony. Just as it opposes fossil fuels, nuclear, and hydro for their impact, in practice it opposes the massive mining, construction, and transmission-line-building "green energy" requires. — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
Low-carbon energy policy has been dominated by the "green energy" movement, which is an outgrowth of the anti-development green movement. This movement is hostile to all development because of its impact on nature, and therefore is hostile to every form of cost-effective energy. — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
Our ineffective and self-destructive approach to low-carbon energy has 2 main causes: 1. Unquestioning obedience to the anti-development "green energy" movement. 2. The false view that rising CO2 levels are a "climate emergency" requiring desperate, crash measures. — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
America’s and other governments’ promotion of non-cost-effective low-carbon energy and impeding of promising low-carbon nuclear energy has led to a situation where *there is no globally cost-competitive low-carbon energy on the horizon*. — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
Instead of low-carbon energy evolving to become more cost-effective than fossil fuels, we are seeing huge government preferences for solar and wind "solutions" that make electricity more expensive and less reliable, while nuclear is stagnant or declining in much of the world. — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
What promising low-carbon energy technologies need above all to become cost-competitive is freedom to innovate. Entrepreneurs need to be free to rapidly test, implement, and evolve their ideas—whether for a promising nuclear plant design or for a new type of deep geothermal well. — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
Fortunately, there are low-carbon energy technologies with great promise. For example, nuclear energy provided low-cost, reliable electricity in the 1960s and 1970s, and has shown great promise for providing industrial process heat as well as power for heavy-duty transportation. — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
The only way to lower CO2 emissions and benefit America is to promote innovation that makes low-carbon energy truly reliable and low-cost. Are China and India going to stop using fossil fuels so long as they are the lowest-cost option? They won’t and they shouldn’t. — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
The developing world overwhelmingly uses fossil fuels because that is by far the lowest-cost way for them to get reliable energy. Unreliable solar and wind can’t come close. That’s why China and India have hundreds of new coal plants under construction. — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
The US causes < 1/6 of global CO2 emissions—and falling. The main reason global CO2 emissions are rising is because billions of people in the developing world are bringing themselves out of poverty by using fossil fuels to power factories, farms, vehicles, and appliances. https://t.co/EU88IP5DtC — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
The only moral and practical way to reduce CO2 emissions is innovation that makes low-carbon energy globally cost-competitive. So long as FFs are the most cost-competitive option for people, especially in developing nations, they will (rightly) choose to emit CO2. — PolitiTweet.org
Alex Epstein @AlexEpstein
A pro-human, pro-freedom policy for CO2 emissions America is taking a "punish America" approach to reducing CO2, making our energy more expensive and less reliable while China, Russia, and others increase their emissions. We need a "liberate American innovation" policy instead. — PolitiTweet.org

“Fossil fuels are a uniquely cost-effective form of energy, which is why they are 80% of global energy and still growing. Rapidly reducing fossil fuels, in a world that needs far more energy, is catastrophic.” https://t.co/g5lfwvyKOd — PolitiTweet.org

“So with nuclear, it's not just about vague ‘deregulation.’ It' ‘decriminalization,’ because we're treating it as a criminal enterprise by treating everything as guilty and having unlimited danger until proven innocent” With @APompliano https://t.co/u4WKPYpaJE — PolitiTweet.org

“FRA gets 2/3 of its electricity from reliable nuclear power. Ontario gets a combined 80% of its electricity from nuclear and hydro... the US gets 20% of electricity from nuclear and <7% from hydro–neither of which can meaningfully increase by 2030.” https://t.co/gq6C9R8yBX — PolitiTweet.org

As I said when @Sen_JoeManchin supported the IRA as pro-fossil-fuel, he either didn't understand it or was being deceitful. In any case he did something terrible. https://t.co/MpndE0UNkJ — PolitiTweet.org
