About Energy Talking Points
Low-cost, reliable energy is an absolute requirement of human flourishing—of prosperity, environmental quality, of national security. And an absolute requirement of low-cost, reliable energy is energy freedom: the freedom of human beings to produce and use the sources of energy they judge best.
Ominously, energy freedom is under attack today—from climate catastrophists who falsely claim that the freedom to use fossil fuels will destroy the planet, to nuclear catastrophists who falsely claim that the freedom to use nuclear energy is a mortal danger, to “green” activists who falsely claim that it’s immoral to impact Mother Earth by mining and drilling for energy.
I created Energy Talking Points to make it incredibly easy for Americans to understand the truth about energy—and incredibly easy to share it with others. My Energy Talking Points have been used by hundreds of political offices, thousands of influencers, and millions of citizens. I hope you find them empowering, too.
— Alex Epstein, Creator of Energy Talking Points
