Nick Loris, the vice president of public policy at the conservative climate advocacy group C3 Solutions, agreed. “I think there is just an adamant approach from the environmental organizations that we need to wind down fossil fuels immediately, and I don’t think that’s grounded in reality,” Loris said.

“There’s got to be a lot for the left to like in terms of removing some of these bottlenecks, in terms of what bipartisan compromise needs to look like,” he added.
