A Clean Economy is a Free Economy
When countries pursue policies rooted in economic freedom, people will be better equipped to solve those problems. It’s time for global leaders to recognize that.
Why Liberal Partisans Resent the Conservative Climate Caucus

Frackers Are Now Drilling for Clean Power
"Technological advances in well drilling, modeling and sensor technology are expected to change that: The Energy Department estimates geothermal energy could power the equivalent of more than 65 million U.S. homes by 2050."
Rising Energy Demand is Not the Enemy. It’s the Opportunity
Lamenting the “obscene” energy demands artificial intelligence (AI) will command, a recent New Yorker article asks, “How can the world reach net zero if it keeps inventing new ways to consume energy?” The energy needs of cryptocurrency mining and clean-tech manufacturing have also raised concerns that the world will not meet climate targets.

By reforming the broken Nuclear Waste Policy Act, engaging with communities, and investing in innovation, the U.S. can more efficiently handle its spent fuel and address one of the biggest roadblocks to unleashing a nuclear energy revolution.
Time to Bring Geothermal Energy in From the Cold
"DOE is the only plausible candidate to fill this role in the United States. It routinely takes significant technical risks in order to create opportunities for private investment. It did so when nuclear power was commercialized in the 1950s, it aided solar and wind from the 1970s on, and it is trying to do so now for carbon capture, hydrogen, and even nuclear fusion. Geothermal energy is a more-than-credible addition to this list."
