As California Governor Gavin Newsom ignores the reality that the so-called green energy transition is just a transition to electricity, the state's 40 million residents continue to bear the costs of what he calls the transition away from fossil fuels. [emphasis, links added]
Governor Newsom doesn’t understand that wind turbines and solar panels can only generate electricity occasionally.
Wind and solar power also cannot produce any of the more than 6,000 products currently made from crude oil or all forms of transportation fuels.
Californians continue to pay a high price for some of the cleanest air in the world, while much of the world gets its electricity from thousands of coal-fired power plants.
California’s extensive government regulations provide environmental consultants and attorneys with powerful ammunition to indefinitely delay or halt the progress of any project.
The Governor doesn't understand that wind turbines and solar panels themselves are 100% made from petroleum derivatives made from crude oil!
Furthermore, electricity is impossible without crude oil because all parts of every power generation system (coal, natural gas, nuclear, hydro, wind and solar) are also made from petroleum derivatives made from petroleum.
A special note about the new TV series “Landman” supporting this energy knowledge article:
All components of California Governor Newsom’s net-zero emissions fantasy rely 100% on crude oil, the oil he wants to rid the world of.
As the Facebook trailer for Randleman , the new TV series created by Taylor Sheridan and Christian Wallace, shows, Newsom is oblivious to the fact that every product in our society that didn't exist 200 years ago is made from petroleum.
So before Newsom further devastates California’s economy, he needs to identify “alternatives” to crude oil to support the economy’s material needs before touting net-zero emissions.

Additionally, everything that requires electricity to run, including iPhones, computers, data centers, and X-ray machines, are made from petrochemicals derived from crude oil.
Without fossil fuels, there would be nothing to need electricity!
Pursuing his misguided transition to electricity, California’s “anti-Trump” effort began days after the November election, when the California Air Resources Board (CARB) — An oversight board appointed almost entirely by Gov. Gavin Newsom — Passed A new update to the state's Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) requires “dirty” transportation fuel producers to purchase more credits from “clean” transportation fuel producers.
With a population of 40 million, California represents only 0.4% of the 8 billion people on Earth.
The new LCFS will provide an estimated $105 billion in electric vehicle charging credits and $8 billion in hydrogen credits, It is paid for primarily through gasoline and diesel charges, which the state passes on to drivers and consumers.
California's 40 million people represent only 0.4% of the planet's 8 billion people. Another 99.6% of the world's population lives outside the country's borders.
Under Governor Newsom’s so-called “leadership,” Natural gas prices in California could rise another $1.15 per gallon next year due to the state's new carbon credit system, taxes, refinery regulations and the closure of the Phillips 66 refinery in 2025.
1. The country’s newly adopted carbon credit requirements may By 2025, regular gasoline retail prices will increase by 40 to 65 cents per gallon.
2. Governor's new refinery rulesHe passed the bill during a special legislative session last month, The price per gallon will increase by 5 to 27 cents.
3. After the Phillips 66 refinery announced a shutdown The new refinery rules will add another 8 to 14 cents per gallon.
4. As California’s gas tax rises along with the state’s price index, In 2025, gas taxes will increase by 1 to 2 cents per gallon.
These fuel cost increases contribute to inflation and California’s high cost of living, disproportionately adversely affecting low-income Californians.
Governor Newsom is personally insulated from rising fuel costs because he travels to and from his office in Sacramento in a state-owned gasoline truck.
What most wealthy Californians don’t realize is that about 80 percent of the world’s 8 billion people, many of whom live in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, still live on less than $10 a day, and those billions still There was little access to electricity.
For others, Life is extremely complicated and compromised by the hypocritical “green” agenda of elites in rich countries who benefit enormously from fossil fuels Since the beginning of the modern industrial era in the 1800s.
