Left-wing Democrats seem obsessed with the idea that warming climates around the Earth constitute an “existential threat” to human life as we now know it. Both leading Democrat candidates for president of the United States have pledged to stop oil, gas and coal development dead in their tracks. This agenda, if it comes to pass, will reverse the economic renaissance in all those states that have become energy powerhouses thanks to new technologies in fracking and horizontal drilling that have brought this nation to the very moment when it has reached energy independence. On the other hand, Roy Spencer, senior scientist for climate studies at NASA, rejects the doomsday climate scenarios we hear from “climate change” radicals. We can afford to wait another 12 years before we think about killing our fossil fuel industries and our economy. ~ Richard Grover, Mason Township
