TAKING THE INITIATIVE: Carl Pope’s Blog December 17th, 2023 San Francisco, CA Common sense prevailed at the last COP28 moment, with the symbolic agreement to commit the world to moving beyond fossil fuels (as it had been doing rather steadily during the conference). One importance of the agreement is that future COP’s can start out […] TAKING THE INITIATIVE: Carl Pope’s Blog December 11, 2023 San Francisco, CA As we head into its final week, COP28 risks running aground, distracted by disagreements – if important ones – over strategy in the 2040’s. Are we aiming to phase out fossil fuels or emissions from those fuels instead. What does the climate end […] Carl Pope “This article earlier published in Salon” Kevin McCarthy’s first legislative farce: The “Lower Energy Costs Act” is a fossil-fuel scam.

Its roots lie in a decision during the 1930s to escape federal regulation of power rates under the terms of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal by forcing all Texas utilities to avoid importing […] TAKING THE INITIATIVE: Carl Pope’s Blog Senate Gridlock Can’t Stop America’s Clean Energy Revolution In naming former Secretary of State John Kerry to become America’s global climate czar, President-elect Joe Biden is wasting no time making emissions reduction a top White House priority.
