On Energy & Oil: 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.

On War & Peace: End senseless carnage with diplomatic resolution in Ukraine

I would sit down with China's President Xi to talk about these existential crises of climate and war. I would urge him to use his leverage as Russia's number one trade partner to push Putin to the negotiating table, and I would promise to do the same with Zelensky so we can end this senseless carnage with a diplomatic resolution that addresses neutrality for Ukraine, referendums for the Donbas and Crimea, a demilitarized border, nuclear disarmament and security guarantees for all.
