Changing climate doesn’t mean the same thing to everyone everywhere. To some, warming will mean that already hot places will become even more temperature-challenged. To others, it might actually create new opportunities for things like growing food and new crops.
Amid surging demand for data centers to train and use cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) models, there is a consensus that an expensive build-out of America’s electric power system is unavoidable. President Trump declared a national energy emergency on the first day of his administration and has pledged to fast-track new power plants to fuel the data...
Polish refiner Orlen (PKN.WA) and Norway’s Equinor (EQNR.OL) signed on Monday a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on the development of carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects. The documents were signed by Irene Rummelhoff – Executive Vice President at Equinor, and Wieslaw Prugar, Orlen management board member in charge of upstream.

The island may boast only 1,300 residents, but it handles more than its fair share of problems. Perpetually battered by big storms, the community has faced power outages where even the backup generators failed.
During his first visit to Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Energy Secretary Chris Wright compared the urgency of the lab’s World War II beginnings to today’s global race to lead in artificial intelligence, calling for a “Manhattan Project 2.” “We’ve seen continued technology innovation advancement in the United States of America, but we’re at a critical time...
In the final presidential debate President Trump has an opportunity to hit reset not just on the presidential race but on an announced topic that will be a subject of debates for decades: climate change.
“Despite the misinformation regarding mining being promulgated by its environmentalist opponents, Midas Gold’s proposal would use modern, heavily regulated mining to responsibly extract hundreds of millions of pounds of valuable domestic resources. Proceeds of the mining activities would also be used to reclaim the land and water damaged by earlier and largely unregulated mining.”
“So, how exactly do we fuel our need to move around without emitting greenhouse gases? The answer is simple, even if making it happen won’t be: use clean electricity to run all the vehicles we can, and get cheap alternative fuels for everything else.”
“When the Legislature takes up normal operations again in January, serious consideration should be given to changing the renewable standards to include hydro and nuclear power. Both meet the twin needs of providing safe, non-carbon power to Californians.”
“One of the most promising untapped resources can be found in the ocean. While ocean currents flow at only 15%-20% of typical wind farm wind speeds, the density of water—approximately 800 times greater than air—yields much higher energy from these flows.”
