Roy Moore on Energy & Oil | |
Jones: Yes. Negative impacts on our planet and health have "not been in dispute for decades." We "must look to regulation and monitoring to slow changes."
Moore: No. Declines to state current position. Has previously said there is "little hard evidence that carbon emissions cause changes to the global climate," and "no constitutional authority for Congress to regulate carbon emissions." Believes limiting emissions would be a crushing economic blow.
Renewable Energy: Support government subsidies for renewable energy
Jones: Yes. Encouraging renewable energy creates jobs, makes us more energy independent; and reverses some negative climate change effects
Moore: Unclear. Foster development of nuclear, solar, wind, and fossil fuels; encourage coal mining and oil drilling; no clear position on subsidies.
