Jack argues that Oregon, where he resides, could be powered entirely by renewable energy sources if oil subsidies were eliminated to allow funding to flow to the most efficient source of power. He challenges businesses large and small to embrace sustainability planning to help in the struggle against pollution while saving money. Kerfoot also offers ideas to the incoming Biden Administration about how to save the American economy using renewable energy, and without requiring any taxpayer-financed subsidies.
Jack Kerfoot’s book, Fueling America: An Insider’s Journey is his memoir about his life spent in, and dissection of, the global oil industry’s perversion of basic economics to preserve its business.
