Going black, not green: Curbing US oil, gas production would hurt the environment, report finds
Fox News
Environmentalists seeking to stop U.S. oil and gas production in order to combat climate change are risking greater damage to the planet, according to a new report.
The report comes as Alaska Republicans and Native leaders are urging the Biden administration, which has committed to a complete transition away from fossil fuels, not to kill a major oil project in the state. Aaron Kliegman is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital.
A major hurdle for the administration, according to IER, is that global efforts to curb oil and gas production haven't lessened the world's reliance on fossil fuels for energy — petroleum products are entrenched in modern society to such a degree that fossil fuels and modernity have become all but inseparable.
