The worst and most stupid bit is this:
Speaking to crowds on Wednesday, vice president JD Vance said US allies are “suffering from this, frankly, more than we are.”
He claimed this was because they had “focused on a lot of green energy scams and they’re hurting a lot more than we are.”
Vance continued:"As much as we’ve got to focus on getting these gas prices down, the reality is overseas they’re feeling it far worse than we did because we’ve taken the steps to protect our energy economy.
Because you need fossil fuels as feedstocks for everything material and physical? How do you fertilize crops with electricity?
Using green energy for everything else frees up more fossil fuel for things that need it.
Just because we use natural gas to make nitrogen fertilizer doesn’t mean we have to; you electrolyse water for your hydrogen instead and you’re off to the races
You realize please smart guy. Explain how you fertilize them with oil.
That’s actually how we get a fair bit of artificial fertilizer. With petroleum and natural gas byproducts.

That being said, organic fertilizers aren’t gone, it’s just more expensive and less damaging to the environment in the long term

JFC are you truly this pig ignorant about how the world works? Do you think the grocery store is a Star Trek replicator?
Why do you think there are EIGHT BILLION people NOW when we had renewable wind and solar since the ancient Egyptians?
