That Solar Story

Order Valium Online There’s a lot of teeth gnashing in green circles over the Solyndra fallout. Even if it wasn’t an election year, Republicans would be cynically milking the story for all it’s worth, and that spigot shows no sign of going dry anytime soon. Are they being hypocritical? Sure. You bet they are. But let’s at least be honest and…Continue Reading…

Climate Debate Needs More Nuance

https://drreddyfamilydoctors.com/womans-health/ This is the suggestion from a Columbia University researcher, whose work I discuss in a post at the Yale Forum on Climate Change & the Media. If you have a nuanced response, give it to me over there.

Bridge Fuel, My Arse

https://www.munshinegroup.com/home-nonprofit/clients/ That’s my translation of Monbiot’s position on the huge gas reserves recently discovered in the UK. Today, in a follow-up post, he writes that any shale gas finds raise our exploitable reserves of fossil fuels, just as we should be reducing them. The world’s minerals companies have already found far greater reserves than we can afford to…Continue Reading…

Who Talks About Polar Bears Anymore?

Order Soma Online I’m not sure what climate change debate Alexis Madrigal has been paying attention to the last few years, but he sounds like Rip Van Winkle here: I’ve been kicking around an idea recently that crystallized in the form of a short “Room for Debate” op-ed on green jobs that I wrote for The New York Times…Continue Reading…

Welcome to the New World of "Beyond Petroleum"

A drilling company backed by John Browne, the former CEO of BP, says it has discovered the gas equivalent of…Continue Reading…

Anesthesized to Failure

Two years ago, we saw many headlines like this and this, warning that the future of humanity hinged on the outcome of the Copenhagen climate talks. Now that we are in the run-up to the annual climate equivalent of Groundhog Day, I suspect we’ll start to see more headlines like this one: Failure is not an option for…Continue Reading…

Is this Rational Optimism or Irrational Fantasy?

I predict that by the second half of this century nine billion human beings will be living mostly prosperous lives, eating chickens and pigs and cattle while coexisting with about as much nature as was there before we even came on the scene. We will be steadily decreasing the footprint of each human life by…Continue Reading…

The Collapse of a Green Parable for Collapse

UPDATE: Some of the information and assertions in this post have been disputed by Jared Diamond here. In 1995, Jared Diamond wrote an article for Discover magazine that began: In just a few centuries, the people of Easter Island wiped out their forest, drove their plants and animals to extinction, and saw their complex society spiral…Continue Reading…

The Jekyll & Hyde Columnist

https://advogadoemresende.com/audiencia-publica-maes-em-carcere/ The only way I can make sense of today’s NYT column by David Brooks is that somebody in the GOP must have scared the hell out of him. Think about it. In July, Brooks wrote that the Republican Party may no longer be a normal party. Over the past few years, it has been infected by…Continue Reading…

When Good Causes Go Bad

Purchase Xanax Online Reuters reports on the latest bone-headed idea from PETA: People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, no stranger to attention-grabbing campaigns featuring nude women, plans to launch a pornography website in the name of animal rights. The nonprofit organization, whose controversial campaigns draw criticism from women’s rights groups, said it hopes to raise awareness of…Continue Reading…
