Witness: The Big Picture: Fossil Energy
The Center for Industrial Progress’s’s creator, Alex Epstein, asserts that” the world needs more coal hydrocarbons.” According to Epstein, the advantages of power sources like fuel, coal, and natural gas far outweigh their drawbacks.
Epstein argued that any course of action must take into account whether the great results are more significant than the corresponding undesirable outcomes, refuting the assertions that we must switch to renewable energy and away from fossil fuels.
” Fossil fuels violate this theory, which is why the majority of so-called scholars, including many climate scientists, are opposed to them.”
Epstein’s’s case was based on the following eight ideas:
- Energy that is cost-effective is necessary for human blooming.
- Due to a lack of energy, millions of people are suffering and passing away.
- Fossil fuels are incredibly economical.
- Fossil fuel power reduces the risk of culture change.
- The pace of global climate has been moderate and controllable.
- Warmer climates may save lives.
- The house effect is a trend that is getting smaller.
- Fossil fuels can be used to manage projected culture effects.
About 80 % of the world’s’s energy is currently produced using fossil fuels, and almost every good and service on the planet is made with this energy. Rapid economic growth and a noticeable decrease in prices of extreme poverty around the world have been fueled by the fall of convenient and accessible power.
Despite this, there are still places where people must live on less than$ 2 per day and face the dreadful prospect of famine and disease, which could be avoided with improved food production and medicine made possible by electric power and the technology that uses it.
According to Epstein, fossils fuels are more affordable and dependable than the majority of current substitutes. Weather restrictions, comprehensive backup systems, typically powered by fossil fuels, and consequently higher costs make solar and wind more expensive.

Epstein also points out that the use of fossil fuels has made it possible to implement better manufacturing techniques and a quicker emergency response, saving countless lives from natural disasters like earthquakes, hurricane, and tornadoes rather than bringing on the climate crisis.
According to Epstein,” Weather crisis deaths are down 98 % over the last hundred.”
A higher awareness of CO2 in the environment encourages vegetable growth, and fossil fuels also power sophisticated irrigation systems that aid farmers in enduring floods. Additionally, central heating saves few lives, but rising global temperatures may be able to save even more because cold weather kills far more people than fire.
Epstein remarked that these outcomes were encouraging because” fewer people will die from cold in the coldest regions ,” noting that” mainstream climate science says that warming will be concentrated in colder regions — northern regions, at colders times – event, and at cooler months.”
Epstein also argued that current technologies, such as air conditioning, levees, and levees, was shield vulnerable populations from the effects of climate change because weather data demonstrate that the greenhouse effect brought on by CO2 has a diminishing ratio of returns.
“As CO2 levels rise, warming slows down and levels off,” Epstein said. “This is mainstream climate science, but it’s rarely communicated to the general public because it contradicts the climate catastrophe narrative.”
