The report cites BailoutWatch's "Big Oil's $100 Billion Bender" report published in September 2020. In response, the report recommends that rather than propping up a dying industry, the U.S. should diversify our energy sources with clean renewable sources like solar and wind and prepare ourselves for the changes ahead.
