Re: Feb. 12 letter to the editor, ‘Liberals’ goal of implementing deal would drive up energy costs’
The chairman of the Railroad Commission exemplifies why we are not able to address the climate crisis. He needs to listen to what Texans want:
- Climate change is not a liberal or conservative issue; it is a major crisis for humanity.
- Republicans and Democrats who look at scientific facts without a bias realize that harmful emissions from coal, oil and gas are warming the planet.
- A majority of Texans want sustainable energy path that would not harm our state or the U.S. and that would reduce intensity of extreme weather events.
- Texas has shown leadership in renewable energy production and can continue to maintain that without sacrificing health and well-being of people if investments in clean energy were accelerated
- We need to stabilize the climate, which is not possible with current policies.
