“It starts with our president," Wright said. "At a time when all of this is happening, Joe Biden is approving more and more fossil fuel projects. We already know about the Mountain Valley Pipeline, his favor to [US Sen.] Joe Manchin [D-WV], maybe to keep him in the Democratic party or whatever else. New liquified natural gas facilities across the country, especially in Alaska and the Gulf south [...] unfortunately his landmark Inflation Reduction Act will do nothing to really attack at scale what we are all witnessing."
“It's not just the human species, all species that depend on weather patterns and temperature to determine what to do, when to mate, when to migrate, when to eat, when to sleep, when to wake up, all this is being altered and since it is all interconnected, this smells like serious, serious doom for us,” Wright said. “Again, the only way we can characterize how our respective governments around the world are responding, save for a few who are taking this very, very seriously, is malfeasance. This literally is not just a crime against humanity but a crime against all living things.”
“We have an administration here and around the world that refuses to hold this industry accountable for a legacy of systemic environmental racism, as well as them knowing since the 1970s what they were, and are doing to the environment. Instead, they are making record profits,” Wright explained. “And Joe Biden is going to give them even more money with his Inflation Reduction Act, opening more oil and gas leasing in the Gulf, more oil and gas leasing on land. So it is just really troubling that you still have some in the Democratic party who refer to this man as a so-called 'climate president.' I’d say he is absolutely a climate chump.”
