Right, but this is all part of the extreme right wing thought bubble:
Climate science is bull####, part of a communist conspiracy to destroy the economy
Climate isn't a concern and the government is setting wildfires to scare you
Burning oil and gas isn't a problem for the environment
It's also a constantly replenishing resource and not a fossil fuel! Yay! Fossils are made up to make you think that god didn't create the world or that he doesn't exist (another communist plot)
Also...renewable energy is a communist plot by China (leaders in solar cell manufacturing) to destroy our economy...
You see, there's a whole lot of other things that this fits with in their circular thinking, and I'm sure I'm leaving some important ones out, but their "zeitgeist" is a lot ####ing different from the rest of the world's.
