Wright is the chief executive of oil and natural gas fracking services company Liberty Energy and sits on the board of a nuclear reactor company, according to his biography on Liberty’s website.
He has strongly advocated for the need for more fossil fuels, putting him in line with Trump’s repeated call for more oil production.
Wright has also expressed doubts about whether climate change is driving extreme weather events.
“There is no climate crisis, and we’re not in the midst of an energy transition either,” Wright said in a video uploaded to LinkedIn.
“We have seen no increase in the frequency or intensity of hurricanes, tornadoes, droughts or floods despite endless fear mongering of the media, politicians and activists,” he also said in the video. “The only thing resembling a crisis with respect to climate change is the regressive, opportunity-squelching policies justified in the name of climate change.”
Nah man, Dracula could do so much good there. He wouldn’t have to kill anyone anymore he’d just get a fresh steady supply of blood for him and all his minions. Then he could use his vampire powers to encourage even more people to donate blood so we’d have excess supply for the medical community.
