Related matters as the administration, standing outside the mainstream for a clear, backward-looking view, ideologically embraces fossil fuels:
The administration's hostility to solar power.
The administration's hostility to cleaner power.
The administration's hostility to wind power.

It is as if the road builders don't realize that building more highway lanes simply results in more driving, and more congestion.
