Then keep the Keystone open until we achieve better energy independence.

Look, I'm all for renewable and alternate forms of energy. But two things:

We're still at least 20+ years from getting away from petro fuels as a primary power source for vehicles. You cannot slam the brakes on that industry without having a reliable (and inexpensive) alternative. EVs, CNG and alternate fuel vehicles still have a long way to go cost wise before people make the switch.

Along those same lines, you're still going to have a petrochemical industry for plastics. So, even if you do get away from it as a fuel source, the production will continue.

Second, your environmental crowd needs to learn to STFU about alternate forms of power. I mean, in a big way.

Geothermal produces sulfur dioxide, can't have that.

Wind turbines kills migratory birds, have to be careful with that.

Hydro dams up rivers, can't have that.

Offshore waves can harm ocean life, can't have that.

Solar produces harmful byproducts in the manufacturing process, can't have that.

NG is a good source, but sometimes needs fracking to get to it. In turn, we get minor earthquakes, so can't have that.

Nuclear, do I even need to go into that? I mean, the way they act every power plant is Chernobyl in the making. Not even realizing its pretty safe these days for the most part. And of course, this bull **** with Yucca Mountain doesn't help (thanks Obama and Trump) with spent fuel being stored safely.

I'm sure if we come up with controlled fusion, the environmental crowd will find something to bitch about with that too.

We already produce 19% of the world's oil. We don't need to increase production. We can transition on what we have. Nuclear should be our base load but it needs to be modular and use molten salts as the cooling agent. That alone will address the historic safety concerns. And don't build in a tsunami zone or on fault lines for good measure.

Regarding the environmental impacts of various clean energy alternatives. Oh well. Something has to give so I guess animals will need to adapt. It beats the alternative of continuing to turn up the planetary thermostat.

How many transsexuals have lurched from the neighboring stall in a woman's restaurant to attack a straight woman? Is it more or less than the number of people killed at Trump's insurrection party?

It's not about transgender people. It's about transgender laws being taken advantage of by perverts.

Nowhere near the number killed at "Mostly Peaceful Protests" though.

You're conflating protests as a group being mostly peaceful (which is true, and what is claimed) with each and every protest being mostly peaceful (which is false and claimed by nobody).
