The choice between “economy” and “environmental” is a false one. Oil fields are for all intents and purposes huge wildlife refuges. You find every kind of creature living in the oilfields undisturbed. There are relatively few workers out there and they stick to the roads and the work sites; the rest of it belongs to the critters.

Nuke plants are the cleanest source of energy there is bar none.

The areas offshore where the oil is already leak oil up through the ocean floor. Drilling releaves and reduces the amount of oil leaking into the ocean.

Right now we are headed for an economic train wreck of the first order. You don’t fix an economy by printing money; printing money will destroy this economy. You fix it by building and creating, by putting people to work generating energy, infrastructure, and tangible wealth. Thats how you do it. Printing a trillion dollars and paying yourself interest on it is going to collapse this economy.

Same with the gas fields( natural that is)I have been in. Colorado springs to mind. Small unobtrusive well sites,miles and miles of open country full of wild animals.
