The climate is clearly changing. It may not be impacting Ohio just yet, but it will.

It is imperative to reduce carbon emissions, but energy security is also important.

Well, my last question, on Wednesday, 78 Stanford researchers and physicians issued a letter about the falsehood and misrepresentations of science that have been spread by Dr. Scott Atlas, who was appointed to the White House Coronavirus…

It has been very informative, so I appreciate what we have learned so far.
