Biden lambasts a victory for the environment

News Flash: Several OPEC+ members are set to tighten global production by an additional 1.16 million barrels per day until the end of the year. They're helping save the environment!!!!!!!!!

YAY! Right?

U.S. President Joe Biden’s administration has repeatedly lambasted the OPEC+ group for its production cuts.

Shouldn't Joe and Greta et al. be praising OPEC from the rooftops? I just don't get it. Fossil fuels are too polluting for us to produce for ourselves and the world, yet when our pushers in the middle east stop producing them we get in an uproar.

Please explain.

They should cut it more and send the price to 150-200$ per barrel.

@Cierzo energy should neither be subsidized nor prohibited, as long as it complies with legitimate regulations passed by congress and federal agencies.

subsidies and bans are intended to "create winners" in the marketplace, who will reward certain politicians with donations and support.
