Because apparently we can't have a website anymore without a blog
The blah-blah-blog
Actually, I post a lot of information related to climate change almost daily elsewhere.
But, as time permits, I'm going to put the esoterica I encounter related to climate change
here rather than trying to update the various pages. So this will be reverse in chronological rather
than logically organized within the structure of the rest of this website. Please don't
rely on this as a consistent and current source for climate change information updates.
Sadly, we cannot rely on our corporate-controlled mass media for good information on this.
I update this site on my own time, and making a living has to take priority.

The Ontario government just chose - again - to use the COVID-19 health emergency to hammer home
its neo-liberal economic agenda. This time it's the removal of ALL environmental oversight rules. Period.
Not in any way limited to COVID-19-related issues. The Ontario NDP opposition abdicated its role by
totally caving in on this.
Just a reminder that this is the reason the fossil-fuel industries are dying - because zero-GHG renewable energy
is now cheaper than subsidized fossil fuels. Not because we want cleaner air and water or a survivable planet.
Because renewables are less expensive than toxic, carcinogenic, GHG-emitting fossil fuels. It's not about COVID-19.
The oil industry was going off a cliff before COVID-19 became a factor in Europe and North America, because driving
an electric car costs less - today - with lower gasoline prices due to COVID-19 and the Russia-Saudi price war - than a
gasoline or diesel car. Big electric trucks and ships are coming. Airliners can run on bio-jet-fuel. The current
Russia-Saudi price war isn't a cause of the collapsing oil industry, it's a result of the collapsing oil industry.
Coal's all but finished. Oil's in huge trouble despite massive taxpayer subsidies. Natural gas demand is
evaporating in the face of renewables and increased energy efficiency. Dominoes.

You can find many earlier postings (going back to year 2000) related to climate change at:
Keith's List Archive and
the Sustainable Biofuel List Mail Archive.
I present a lot of information in this blog and on this website. If you need some help sorting through the
noise level and getting a forward-looking, proactive approach to climate change for your business, I can do
that work for you via my consulting business. Contact
