When world leaders fly into New York City (just think of the CO2 emissions from all the flights!) to hobnob at the annual UN General Assembly, they think and act as many leaders often do: they are seeking top-down solutions to global problems. They will tell us what to do. If we balk, they will offer to pay us to do it. If we do it, then problem(s) solved.
Today, Citizens for Responsible Energy Solutions (CRES) released a national survey showing Republicans, Republican-leaning Independents and true Independents’ support of clean energy, federal incentives to expand clean energy development, onshoring energy production and an all-of-the-above energy approach. “Clean energy, its expansion and an all-of-the-above energy approach all polled very highly with right-leaning likely voters,” said Heather Reams, CRES...
Recently, House Committee on Natural Resources Chairman Bruce Westerman (R-Ark.) and U.S. Rep. Jared Golden (D-Maine) introduced the bipartisan Standardizing Permitting and Expediting Economic Development (SPEED) Act.

According to Gallup, Donald Trump enjoys 93% approval among Republicans but just 1% among Democrats—a 92-point gulf that underscores how divided our country has become.

Tucked away on the edge of an entertainment district in Huntsville, Alabama, the venue is mainly surrounded by parking lots and fencing. But in the three years since it opened, the Orion has hosted more than 625,000 visitors for hundreds of concerts and other on-site events while generating millions in revenue.
