from masterresource Author: Robert Bradley Jr. “Energy policy is on the ballot this fall, and American voters deserve meaningful answers from all candidates on how to advance affordable and reliable natural gas and oil production for decades to come.” – American Petroleum Institute The American Petroleum Institute (API) is no better or worse than its membership.

Mosquitoes are more than just a nuisance. They may also pose a public health risk. There are now more mosquitoes in many areas, and even species that have never been seen before, such as Aedes albopictus, which can transmit diseases such as dengue, chikungunya and La Crosse viruses.

This contrast between apocalyptic narratives and seemingly optimistic realities raises important questions about the accuracy of doomsayers' predictions and the actual nature of…
