FFS, he wasn't just misguided in how he went about supporting a local Boy Scout troop that made a bad hiring decision. He wasn't a cardinal approving payments to keep the church from getting a black eye.

Wow, this article makes terrific points to rebut the notion that there's supposedly no energy transition, since clean energy merely "adds to" growing fossil fuel production.

Clean energy does not simply “add to” global energy use; it displaces fossil sources that would otherwise get built.
