Fox News promotes green energy - behold America’s dumbest energy expert
Green energy has undeniably become a top priority in the US and around the world which confirms the suspicion that the Director of Energy and Global Warming Studies at the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI), Myron Ebell, appears to be America's dumbest energy expert. Ebell's stupidity is punctuated by the Fox News host's frustration. When a Fox News host sighs at your blatantly corrupt energy policy position, you have officially reached a new level of idiocy. See Myron's list of similar accomplishments in the last paragraph below.
When asked whether the $15 Billion annual investment budget is a reasonable amount to invest in clean power solutions, Myron Ebell replied, "It's far too much money to waste on uncompetitive technologies." When asked to substantiate this claim with a long-term perspective, Myron Ebell cited short-term energy costs.
The CEI website boasts that:
"Among numerous other recognitions, Greenpeace featured Mr. Ebell and three of his CEI colleagues in 'A Field Guide to Climate Criminals' distributed at the UN climate meeting in Montreal in December 2005. Rolling Stone magazine in its November 17, 2005 issue named Mr. Ebell one of six 'Misleaders' on global warming in a special feature, along with President Bush, Senator James Inhofe, and Michael Crichton. In November 2004 as a result of a BBC Radio interview, seven members of the British House of Commons from all three major parties introduced a motion to censure Mr. Ebell 'in the strongest possible terms.' In its May 22, 2004 special Issues and Answers issue, National Journal profiled Mr. Ebell as one of ten people who would lead the global warming debate during the next presidential administration. The Clean Air Trust in March 2001 named Mr. Ebell its 'Villain of the Month' for his role in convincing the Bush Administration not to regulate carbon dioxide emissions."
We understand that Fox News is still Fox News, but can't we stop dredging up liars to discuss green energy on the airwaves? This level of arrogance is so 2007...
