Actually, there is no way to answer that question with any real accuracy, though here is a data point: If confirmed by the senate, Doug “Drill Baby Drill” Burgum will be serving as the U.S. Secretary of the Interior, overseeing public and federal lands and their natural resources. If his name is familiar, it’s because he’s a former governor of North Dakota and 2024 presidential candidate, who dropped out of the race to support Donald Trump.
As presented in this article by National Public Radio, Burgum is a big booster of oil and gas drilling, and the popular scam known as carbon capture and storage.
