"Speaking for the normies, Backer writes, 'We can move forward only if we put political tribalism aside and rise above the noise of scare tactics and denialism. Only then will our generation of environmentalists be able to stand together.' Turning problems into win-wins isn’t particularly conservative, or particularly liberal. But it is practical. And popular—as in, winning elections popular."
"Rather than the salt-of-the-earth image of country folks as environmentalists, the modern movement came to be dominated by mostly metropolitan voices that valued idealistic notions of 'natural' preservation over pragmatic conservation."
"Renewable energy groups have complained that federal permitting has caused long project delays and cost increases for wind turbines and solar farms, as well as the transmission lines that carry renewable energy from where it is generated to population centers."
Charles Kennedy of OilPrice.com reports that Chevron will produce carbon-negative energy in California. “The bioenergy with carbon capture and sequestration (BECCS) project is planned to convert agricultural waste biomass, such as almond trees, into a renewable synthesis gas that will be mixed with oxygen in a combustor to generate electricity, the U.S. oil and gas...
"As the far-left environmental community continues to fumble these issues, an America-First energy agenda could be a promising cornerstone in advancing economic prosperity, enhancing national security, and leaving a more beautiful nation for future generations. Conservatives, committed to stewardship, economic growth, and American leadership, can champion energy and environmental policy, stepping up to embrace these issues with the urgency they deserve. The long-term benefits for our country—and indeed, the world—are immense. The time to act is now, and the opportunity to lead has never been greater."
"On Monday, House Republicans began unveiling their Energy Innovation Agenda, making the case for balancing economic and environmental sustainability through targeted policy solutions. "
"Gradiant’s technology mimics how nature creates rain. Wastewater is heated and pumped into a humidifier and mixed with ambient air. As the two interact, they are heated into vapor, leaving the contaminants behind. Using a proprietary technology, the vapor is transferred to a column with cool clean water. When the two mix, the air cools and drops fresh water, like rain falls from a cloud. The process, according to Gradiant, cuts traditional costs in half."
Hal Bernton of Inside Climate News reports on Alaska’s potential for underground hydrogen. Alaska geologist Mark Myers hopes that underground reserves of hydrogen could fuel a new state energy industry. His dreams were launched by a well drilled in the African country of Mali that yields enough hydrogen to fuel a village electric power plant. ...
"The recent cyberattack on the Colonial Pipeline, which stretches from Texas to New Jersey, reminds us that energy infrastructure to deliver fuel to gas pumps and power plants is also essential. Though the attack prompted panic buying and gasoline shortages in the nation’s southeast, the problem wasn’t one of production but rather a disruption in the supply chain."
Catherine Morehouse of Utility Dive reports that a coalition of free-market organizations, including C3 Solutions, have asked Congress to conduct a first-of-its-kind cost analysis on Regional Transmission Organizations (RTOs). “In initially studying RTO formation, FERC estimated organized markets would save billions of dollars in production costs. Other studies have found similar results on the wholesale side, but...
