>> Goddamn socialist probably thinks that Climate Change is real, too!

Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson said Wednesday the company backs a price on carbon and believes climate change brings “real” risks that require “serious” action.

I heard a clip of him on the radio, saying that providing cheap fuel for the World's poor is a higher priority than addressing climate change.  There was also some sort of statement that Climate Change can be addressed from an engineering solution, but that wasn't clear to me.

I listened to him on the radio and he referred to it as an engineering problem and then said we should worry about poor people having affordable energy so they don't have to use manure as a fuel source.

Well, it is an engineering problem. If we could capture and sequester carbon emissions more effectively there'd be no man made global warming.

Also, I don't know if say, burning manure is more polluting than burning natural gas or not, so no comment on that really, but I'm almost positive that relying on manure as a fuel source is an economic hardship.

 

Burning non-fossil fuels is no worse for the climate than not burning them. Either way, the carbon is released; this year if burned or in a few years if allowed to rot. It's part of the Earth's regular carbon cycle.

Burning fossil fuels puts "extra" carbon into the atmosphere.
