Alaska Gov. Bill Walker hitched a ride on Air Force One to ask Obama to allow the federal government to help Alaska access more fossil fuels, the consumption of which President Obama views as one of the primary drivers of global warming.  Earlier this year, Gov. Walker argued Obama and Interior Secretary Sally Jewell had declared war on Alaska's future by asking Congress to declare a big portion of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge as wilderness, potentially making it off limits to oil and gas exploration. Robert Dillon, communications director for the U.S. Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, says Alaskans are being denied the ability to grow their economy.https://climatechangedispatch.com/wp-content/uploads/images_pics8_obama_alaska_visit.jpg
