Emails Reveal Role Michael Bloomberg’s Climate Crusaders Are Playing In Maryland’s AG Office

Thought Piece Now, Michael Bloomberg is planting his environmental acolytes in State Attorney Generals Offices. Something smells fishy, besides the NYC Fish Market.

ExxonMobil “Investing” $100M in Gov’t Research to Lower Emissions

Thought Piece I cannot keep from wondering: How much the “Big Green Machine” has given to aid government research in lowing emissions? Oh, that’s right,they spend their billions on preventing any private sector from investing their own money on research and infrastructure upgrade. Economic development isn’t the BGM’s problem or in their “best interests.” “Historical empathy [...]

State Policy Options to Price Carbon from Electricity

Thought Piece The Abject Failure of Emissions Trading and Carbon Taxation Both, a carbon tax and cap and trade, have yet to provide a single good example of working. In fact, the EU ETS has been an abject failure since its inception in 1997 and its implementation in 2009. Also, CA's trading scheme is just another [...]

A New US Areal No Drought Record

Thought Piece "As an informed witness of the last 20 years of broadband and energy, I humbly submit that nobody foresaw the year 2016, in Y2K, accurately. In fact, nobody was even close, other than Steve Jobs perhaps. It is even less likely that any of us will be seers or accurate futurists going forward." https://lnkd.in/eEpCETn. [...]

Cuomo vs. New York

Thought Piece Credibility Means Something Even in New York In New York's media, there have been so much under-informed writing and reporting about fracking it makes the cognoscenti of unconventional oil downright embarrassed. Defying intellectualism, I suppose because Fracking sounds bad and involves fossil fuel. I don't "believe" in today's environmental activism. And, I don't believe [...]

Enbridge acquires Ohio line to serve Toledo gas users

Thought Piece As a lifelong private sector advocate, I have been an active witness to several states like Pennsylvania, West Virginia and emerging NG Ohio, who are endowed with vast amounts of unconventional oil and the necessary private capital, to become a shining symbol of the US Energy Renaissance in 2019. Unlike conventional oil, shale oil [...]

Climate science violates the basic precepts of science

Thought Piece For Judith Curry, one of the leading climate science skeptics on the planet, the idea that an increase in carbon emissions automatically increases the earth’s temperature is too simplistic. She said earth has many complex systems and there could be other factors playing into climate change that we don’t yet understand, wrote Jake Jarvis. [...]
