Niedzielski: Is green energy the solution or a lie?

TO THE EDITOR:
In Simon and Garfukel’s hit song, The Boxer, a line of lyrics states “a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest.” A translation of that line is “I don’t want to be bothered by the truth.” That kind of thinking contributes to the unproductive divide we see today in America.
A good percentage of people believe, of course, green energy is a lie because the construct of man-made climate change is a lie. To those people I plead, assume for the moment there’s at least some truth to man-made climate change, and keep reading.

Good morning. I’m Paul Thornton, and it is Saturday, Feb. 6, 2021. Exactly one year ago, a newly acquitted President Trump said the people who had tried to impeach and remove him from office were “evil and sick.” Let’s take a look back at the week in Opinion.
I start off mentioning the last impeachment because Donald Trump, now the former president, will probably declare victory for the second consecutive February after another Senate acquittal. That’s the assessment of former U.S. attorney Harry Litman, who writes that the now ex-president’s ability to elude accountability in the upper chamber has nothing to do with his legal acumen or that of his attorneys far from it, actually. Rather, Republican senators will altogether dodge the question of whether Trump incited insurrection (he did) in favor of dismissal on the constitutionally dubious grounds that they cannot convict an ex-president.
