Re. the climate issue.

It is a complex thing. Mr, Trump has been pretty moderate about it on the Rogan podcast. He says an undeniable truth: here people propose strict control of emissions, but in China, which is the first global polluter, there is no freedom of proposal. The Chinese government is going to open more coal mines. So are doing other developing countries.

I like the idea of aeolic fields and do not agree that they have a terrible impact on the landscape, but there is some truth on the cost of the wind towers and the use of old materials. Clean energy seems not to be always very clean.

Also, Mr. Trump's views on nuclear power are sensible. That's a very dangerous power source, if not for the safety of ordinary operations, for the safety against outside attacks.

To me, it appears that the worst thing, far worse than coal plants, would be to multiply nuclear power plants. Besides, nobody is speaking about the nuclear exhaust material, which will remain radioactive forever.

And, re. fossil fuels. Untile they are there to be exploited, it would be a strategical suicide not to exploit them. This because the villains in the world are exploiting them without hesitation, securing a strategical advantage over the so-called free world.
