Opinion: Without petroleum industry, clean energy would be left in the dark

A pumpjack is obscured by the heat as it operates on dry farmland with large windmills Friday, July 8, 2022, near Midland.Regarding “So Big Oil profits first from fossil fuels, and then from fixing the damage?” : I’d like to address Tom Osborne and all climate alarmists to some facts. While Tom and many activists would like to destroy the petroleum industry for the sake of saving our planet, it would be at their own peril.

A little research by this Texan can educate this California man about why he should not be so quick to demonize and eliminate the fossil industry because, in doing so, the so-called clean energy could not exist. For example: according to, wind turbine blades use 900 pounds of petrochemical-based products and solar panels are also constructed from petrochemical-based products.

commissioned by the American Petroleum Institute.Without the petroleum industry, clean energy would be left in the dark.,” : It seems highly fashionable to condemn oil and gas companies these days as greedy giants with obscene profits. The petroleum industry is no less so than other industries. Under the current administration, the so-called green energies are the ones being highly subsidized amid hysteria about climate change.

The modern petroleum industry has a long, 100-plus-year history of serving mankind. In the early 1900s it fueled the Industrial Revolution that gave us automobiles and steel. Fossil fuels were very instrumental in winning World War II by powering thousands of airplanes, tanks and the other machinery of war. After the war, the industry continued its utility by developing plastics and fertilizers. And today, let’s not forget all the jet planes flying around the world.

Let’s be thankful that the petroleum industry gathers the capital and expertise to produce this valuable resource so that all of us may enjoy our current lifestyle and prosperity. With current demands for energy there is room for other sources of energy as well, but let these other sources earn their own way without the current subsidies.,” : I read the Jim Robertson letter expressing concern about an offshore wind farm operation in the event of a Category 5 hurricane.
