Barack Obama: Quadrennial Energy Review for economy-wide climate policy

OP could be tasked with developing a National Energy Security Strategy in conjunction with the White House National Security Strategy. Such a strategy could summarize cyber and physical threats to energy infrastructure, challenges involved in obtaining rare earth minerals to support domestic energy production and consumption, and foreign actions that threaten U.S. energy security and dominance. However, it would be important to guard against attempts to transform the strategy into a government-led industrial policy or, in a progressive Administration, an economy-wide climate policy.

Heritage Foundation: No industrial policy nor economy-wide climate policy

Heritage Foundation: Climate mitigation instead of war on fossil fuels

USAID should cease its war on fossil fuels in the developing world and support the responsible management of oil and gas reserves as the quickest way to end wrenching poverty and the need for open-ended foreign aid. The next conservative Administration should rescind all climate policies from its foreign aid programs (specifically USAID's Climate Strategy 2022-20307 ); shut down the agency's offices, programs, and directives designed to advance the Paris Climate Agreement; and narrowly limit funding to traditional climate mitigation efforts.
