Cornel West on Energy & Oil

 

 


Shift from extraction to regenerative and renewable energy

Fighting back against the escalating ecological catastrophe by targeting the corporate greed of fossil fuel companies and resurrecting the Green New Deal. Shifting from extraction and emission to regenerative and renewable energy. Eliminating the environmental racism that disproportionately damages the life chances of poor people, especially poor people of color here and abroad. The future of life on this planet depends on this fundamental shift!

Calls for an immediate halt to fossil fuel extraction

Cornel West called today for the nationalization of the oil, coal and natural gas industries and an immediate halt to fossil fuel extraction to combat the climate crisis. West said there is no time left, given the climate emergency, for "milquetoast reforms" such as Joe Biden's so-called Inflation Reduction Act.
