I think environmentalists can be quite off the rails, but why or why not is not biblical. I think a lot of environmentalism is motivated by emotional/irrational people and lawyers, which is a dangerous combination. What’s missing in that equation is science and economics.
This is why I’m a fan of precise, targeted externality charging. I favor ZERO subsidies for oil, solar, wind, or any energy source for that matter. Instead, identify the specific things some of these sources produce that is bad (carbon, oil spills, maybe bird deaths from windmills, etc.) and put a price on them so that the market isn’t missing that from its equation. Then the market will find an optimal solution with those costs in mind.
