Democrat vs. Republican vs. Green vs. Libertarian: Four Party's Presidential Nominees On The Issues: on Energy & Oil


Hillary Clinton: Hillary: invest in green energy; Trump: that's cronyism

Hillary Clinton and Jill Stein (Green) agree on all environmental issues, but Stein makes these issues the core of her political philosophy while Clinton has a more practical approach. Donald Trump disagrees with those two and take the hard-core conservative hands-off approach on all environmental issues; Gary Johnson (Libertarian) is the moderate of the four on the environment (for some aspects; against some aspects).

Hillary's balance of environment vs. economy is to invest in green energy while restricting oil drilling, like most Democrats, and like Jill Stein. Trump (and just about all Republicans, and Gary Johnson) claim that "green energy" is just another federal program that provides an excuse to enrich Democratically-favored industries.

On global warming, Trump and Clinton are polar opposites; Hillary would fight global warming, while Trump is a "skeptic"; Trump rejects cap-and-trade, the core concept of the Kyoto treaty to reverse global warming; Hillary supports it.
