Don’t miss an all new episode of The Yaron Brook Show this Wednesday, April 22. ARI’s Keith Lockitch and Amanda Maxham will guest host this special Earth Day episode.
On May 15th, 2013, a small lobster boat flying a banner that read “coal is stupid” dropped anchor in waters in front of the Brayton Point Power Station in Massachusetts. The two eco-activists aboard the boat, named the Henry David T., thereby blocked the path of the coal ship Energy Enterprise, which was carrying a load of 40,000 tons of energy-rich coal, from reaching the power plant.
The Department of Energy recently announced new energy efficiency regulations for commercial refrigerators, alleging the move would save American businesses billions of dollars.
In the midst of President Obama’s campaign on climate change, John Kerry traveled to India last week to “prod” the people to do more to cut carbon emissions.
The Wall Street Journal recently reported on “small hydro” projects—hydroelectric power plants involving small dams on streams and tributaries, as opposed to giant dams on major rivers. Because hydro produces zero greenhouse gas emissions, these projects are being promoted by power companies hoping to avoid the fierce green opposition to carbon-based energy.
