Chris Wright, President-elect Donald Trump바카라 게임 웹사이트�s pick for energy secretary, told senators during his confirmation hearing Wednesday that he would promote all sources of American energy, while also acknowledging the burning of fossil fuels causes climate change.Wright, a fossil fuel executive, has been one of the industry바카라 게임 웹사이트�s loudest voices against efforts to fight climate change. He believes that more fossil fuel production can lift people out of poverty around the globe. His nomination went before the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources for a confirmation hearing. Protesters interrupted it multiple times.Here are the most interesting moments:Wright promises to implement Trump바카라 게임 웹사이트�s 바카라 게임 웹사이트�bold energy agenda바카라 게임 웹사이트�CEO of Denver-based Liberty Energy, Wright promised to help Trump "unleash energy security and prosperity.바카라 게임 웹사이트�The centerpiece of Trump바카라 게임 웹사이트�s energy policy is 바카라 게임 웹사이트�drill, baby, drill,바카라 게임 웹사이트� and he has pledged to dismantle what he calls Democrats바카라 게임 웹사이트� 바카라 게임 웹사이트�green new scam바카라 게임 웹사이트� in favor of boosting production of fossil fuels such as oil, natural gas and coal, which cause climate change 바카라 게임 웹사이트� when they burn, greenhouse gases are released.바카라 게임 웹사이트�President Trump shares my passion for energy,바카라 게임 웹사이트� Wright said. 바카라 게임 웹사이트�And if confirmed, I will work tirelessly to implement his bold agenda as an unabashed steward for all sources of affordable, reliable and secure American energy.바카라 게임 웹사이트�He said that includes oil and natural gas, which underpin the nation's economy; coal, nuclear power and hydropower as major sources of energy; rapidly-growing wind and solar power; and geothermal energy, which could become a meaningful source of energy.Sen. John Hickenlooper, D-Colo., called Wright an 바카라 게임 웹사이트�unrestrained enthusiast for fossils fuels in almost every regard,바카라 게임 웹사이트� but noted that he studied nuclear, worked on solar energy and is a scientist who is open to discussion.Wright says the burning of fossil fuels causes climate changeSen. Angus King, I-Maine, said he thinks Wright's position on climate change is 바카라 게임 웹사이트�more subtle than is publicly recognized바카라 게임 웹사이트� and that he doesn't deny climate change is happening or that it's related to the combustion of fossil fuels, which are drastically increasing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.Wright responded 바카라 게임 웹사이트�absolutely,바카라 게임 웹사이트� adding that 바카라 게임 웹사이트�mostly from the combustion of hydrocarbons to enable our modern world, we바카라 게임 웹사이트�ve increased atmospheric CO2 concentration by 50%,바카라 게임 웹사이트� making it harder for the Earth to shed heat.Though he said climate change is real, he also said 바카라 게임 웹사이트�there isn바카라 게임 웹사이트�t dirty energy or clean energy.바카라 게임 웹사이트� Rather, he said, there are different sources of energy with different tradeoffs.바카라 게임 웹사이트�Energy is critical to human lives. Climate change is a global challenge that we need to solve,바카라 게임 웹사이트� Wright said. 바카라 게임 웹사이트�And tradeoffs between those two are the decisions politicians make and they're the decisions that will impact the future of our world and our quality of life.바카라 게임 웹사이트�Wright stands by statement that he believes 바카라 게임 웹사이트�wildfires are just hype바카라 게임 웹사이트�Sen. Alex Padilla, D-Calif., asked Wright if he still believes that 바카라 게임 웹사이트�wildfires are just hype바카라 게임 웹사이트� following the massive blazes in Southern California, which have killed at least 25 people and destroyed thousands of homes.Scientists say climate change means more frequent and intense wildfires, with drought-like conditions in the western U.S., are more likely.바카라 게임 웹사이트�You바카라 게임 웹사이트�ve written that the hype over wildfires is just hype to justify more impoverishment from bad government policies,바카라 게임 웹사이트� Padilla said. 바카라 게임 웹사이트�And given the devastation that we바카라 게임 웹사이트�re currently experiencing in Los Angeles, do you still believe that wildfires are just hype?바카라 게임 웹사이트�Wright said he stood by his past comments. He then said climate change is real before Padilla cut him off.Padilla said, 바카라 게임 웹사이트�tell that to the families of the more than two dozen lost in these fires and counting.바카라 게임 웹사이트�Protesters interrupted the confirmation hearing multiple timesOne protester yelled 바카라 게임 웹사이트�LA is burning바카라 게임 웹사이트� and another shouted 바카라 게임 웹사이트�I바카라 게임 웹사이트�m 18 years old and I want a future!바카라 게임 웹사이트� They held up signs that read, 바카라 게임 웹사이트�big oil profits, LA burns.바카라 게임 웹사이트�A disruption prompted the Republican Committee Chair, Sen. Mike Lee of Utah, to briefly halt the hearing, saying the committee would stand in recess until the Capitol Police could restore order.Wright highlights geothermal energy, nuclear and natural gas productionWright's company is an investor in Fervo Energy, a Houston-based geothermal company that makes electricity cleanly from the Earth's heat. He serves on the board of directors of Oklo, a developer of small modular nuclear reactors.Wright said he's excited about geothermal as an 바카라 게임 웹사이트�an enormous, abundant energy resource below everyone바카라 게임 웹사이트�s feet.바카라 게임 웹사이트� Wright said he wants to accelerate the development of nuclear energy so it can meet a far greater share of the world's demand for electricity.Republican Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski asked Wright if he would support a proposed mega-gas project in her home state to export liquefied natural gas overseas. He said it's a 바카라 게임 웹사이트�tremendous idea바카라 게임 웹사이트� and 바카라 게임 웹사이트�great for our country바카라 게임 웹사이트� to grow natural gas production in Alaska and build infrastructure to export it.Wright said he will sever all ties across the energy industry if confirmed.
