It is sad that so many of the alt-light parties are die hard anti environmentalists. It is questionable what they can preserve while using imported fuel to destroy their environment. The populist impulse isn't really ideological. Their plattform is they don't like taxes because they are expensive. They don't like arabs because they create trouble, they want cheap fuel because they want a low price at the pump. There is no motivation beyond the short sighted individual need of the boomer voting for them.

At what point did you decide that climate skeptics are anti-environmentalists? You think that because someone rejects climate alarmism that they must therefore hate the environment? You were making the same kindof stupid arguments about the vaccines, back when that was still a hot topic.

There is no need for imported fossil fuels, at least not in North America. Canada and the United States both have massive deposits of fossil fuels, more than enough to last them for the rest of this century. The fact that Canada and the U.S. rely on imported Middle Eastern oil is due to the political whimsy of the Jewish Elites. They don't want the U.S. to be energy independent because then there would be less incentive to get entangled in the Middle East, and less incentive to intervene on behalf of the failed state that is Israel.

The low price of oil is an illusion. The U.S. spent trillions of dollars to prosecute the 'War on Terror', which was largely motivated by a desire to maintain the Petrodollar system.

US conventional oil production peaked in the 1970s.
