“Observe that leading opponents of fossil fuels are not just hostile to fossil fuels but also to nuclear, hydro, and the mining and development involved in solar and wind. Always because of their impact on Earth.” https://t.co/e7utaZeyYM — PolitiTweet.org

“when you're thinking about replacing fossil fuels, you need to recognize the world needs far more energy. So, you're not just replacing the same portion of the same pie… Fossil fuels are 80+ percent of a growing pie.” With @JamesJPuplava https://t.co/sqDlHyywFs — PolitiTweet.org

If you want to see what it looks like for a very smart reviewer to actually engage with Fossil Future, including to try to challenge it, read economist @bryan_caplan's numerous posts about the book. https://t.co/G8ibFvQNR4 — PolitiTweet.org

My basic criterion for a good review is that by reading it you have a good idea of the author's main argument. If you read every negative "review" of Fossil Future you will have a very distorted, straw-man view of what I argue and how I argue it. Read FF and see for yourself. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm getting a bunch of questions about some half-negative "reviews" of Fossil Future this week by @RogerPielkeJr and @tylercowen (both very smart guys). I will make a video in the next month addressing all major negative reviews. My 3 word summary: Straw Man Fallacy. — PolitiTweet.org
