The climate war we cannot afford to lose
Dear Editor, Dr. Svitlana Krakovska, a Ukrainian climate scientist and member of the International Panel on Climate Change recently said, “Human induced climate change and the war on Ukraine have the same roots, fossil fuels, and our dependence on them,” Europe’s dependence on fossil fuels from Russia is “funding the war” in Ukraine. Russia, the second largest producer of natural gas, has been accused of using the resource in a geopolitical way against European countries dependent on its gas. Europe views the worsening situation in Ukraine as justification to double up its ...
Fossil fuels needed
Dear Editor, How quickly everything has changed. You may not have liked President Trump personally but a little over a year ago, as he was being blamed for everything that happened, we were oil and energy independent and gas prices were low.

This became incredibly important last year when my daughter had spinal fusion surgery to treat scoliosis.

Response to March 20 letter
Dear Editor, According to Fact Check .org there were 4 people that died on January 6th, 3 supporters of President Trump from unrelated medical emergencies and 1 UNARMED VETERAN who was killed by Capitol police! He was cleared within days and Pelosi and Capitol police have never released the video footage or explained their justification. Never in this country’s history has an incumbent president received more votes than the previous election and lost! President Trump received over 7 million more votes than any sitting president in history, explain please. Pennsylvania has ...
