No, I do not. Nor do I use plastic straws. Not only do they leave a carbon footprint, they also fuck up our oceans and kill fish, which are now starting to become scarcer and more expensive. Of course, the oil companies don't give a shit about that. Originally Posted by brasil

Boebert sounded a little hysterical and and probably about 1/8 as ignorant as Kamala Harris does on a good day but she did look like a yummy piece of ass while brow-beating the secret service cunt.

You mentioned not leaving a carbon footprint, he was making the point that since he owns thousands of trees, and trees perform a process called photosynthesis, which takes carbon dioxide out of the air.

Following his logic, those who put carbon into the the air should be paying him for taking carbon dioxide out of the air. So rather than using our tax dollars to reimburse him, we might look for West Texas millionaires to take responsibility.

Energy independent means we won’t have to rely on other countries for importing their oil. Other countries that not only don’t like us, but leave a much larger carbon footprint than we do. Which is what many of you are concerned about, as am I.

If you’re worried about the carbon footprint by oil and gas companies, then we should look at the entire world, not just the U.S.

And now it’s West TX millionaires fault. I suppose somebody has to take the blame. The Dems certainly won’t, nor will they take responsibility for any of the craziness going on in our country and the world today.

Add that up for any given wind farm.

It’s difficult to say how much oil would be used to produce the equivalent amount of power/electricity in an oil fueled power plant vs a windmill.

Oil fueled power plants are basically a thing of the past. Less than 1% of electricity is generated by oil fueled power plants in this country.
