Chris Wright: Trump's Energy Secretary Nominee Sparks Green Energy Debate

TL;DR Summary
Chris Wright, Donald Trump's nominee for energy secretary, has been criticized by experts for his stance against the global transition to green energy and his denial of a climate crisis.

Experts argue that the energy transition is irreversible, with declining coal usage and increasing solar and wind capacity. The fossil fuel industry's influence and misinformation are seen as obstacles, but bipartisan support is deemed crucial for continued progress.
