Fascinating new analysis from the Financial Times showing that 🇺🇸 US #oil and #gas production grew significantly while #jobs in that sector decreased. More oil, fewer jobs, higher prices. 1/3 🧵 166
Andreas Sieber @andreassieber.bsky.social · 03/09/2026If there ever was a time, when #oil and #gas benefitted the ordinary Joe, that time is long over: US oil production rose to 13.8 million barrels /day - but in 2025 alone the sector shed 13.000 jobs. 2/3 111
Andreas Sieber @andreassieber.bsky.social · 03/09/2026In comparison, clean energy added about 96.000 jobs in the US in 2024 - and solar jobs are projected to grow 180% by 2034. Oil and gas are work out well for ordinary people anymore. 3/3 022
