Even after his death, former President Jimmy Carter continues to leave a legacy of his public service. In the face of Trump's renewed swift action to withdraw the United States from the Paris Agreement, his example empowers us to rise to the challenge and persist in climate action. As he lay in state in Plains, Atlanta, and Washington, D.C., Americans learned anew two important lessons from Jimmy Carter through the many tellings of his life story.

not many people know Paul Homewood h/t Philip Bratby In 2020, the World Bank released a report on the potential of solar energy: https://www.worldbank.org/en/topic/energy/publication/solar-photovoltaic-power-potential-by-country This is a fairly detailed analysis that takes into account not only sunlight itself, but also the effects of air temperature, terrain horizon and albedo, as well as module tilt, configuration, shadows,contamination and other factors that affect system performance. It is measured like this: PVOUT is the long-term energy production per unit of photovoltaic installation capacity (specific energy production), measured in kilowatt-hours per installation peak (kWh/kWp). Global map showing actual solar potential after excluding physical, environmental…

From the Heartland Institute. Dr. H. Sterling Burnett Capturing and storing carbon dioxide is also a huge waste of resources and can cause other harms ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill. (January 22, 2025) — Carbon capture and storage (CCS) programs have become an increasingly popular method through which climate activists pursue “net-zero” global carbon dioxide (CO2)emission. A new paper from the Heartland Institute urges policymakers to resist CCS projects, which often require the use of eminent domain to seize private property from landowners. The title of this paper is Carbon capture and property rights: There is no reason to use carbon capture…

from CFACT David Wojcik Last month, I analyzed various loopholes in the federal California Offshore Wind Initiative EIS (PEIS) draft. look. Now, a new report shows that these seemingly large holes are small compared to the huge EIS gap created by the federal action plan for offshore wind development on the West Coast. First, the entire California program is massive compared to the mere five leases covered by the so-called California PEIS. The document I wrote is best called Starter Kit EIS. In addition, there are many developments in Oregon and Washington states. I pointed out earlier that the PEIS…

Vijay Jayaraj A few hundred years ago, coffee was an almost unknown commodity, with few countries consuming it on a commercial scale. But today it has become a wildly popular beverage, prompting several companies to compete for the best coffee beans in the world. It is estimated that 21 billion pounds of green coffee is produced globally each year and is grown on more than 25 million acres. The United States, Brazil and Japan are the largest coffee consumers. Although China was late to the game, it is now driving global demand. In the 2023-2024 crop year, China's consumption will…
