The Fine Print

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.

Dominoes. It isn't about uncertainty in public resistance or government environmental assessment processes which are causing Berkshire Hathaway to pull out of this project. It is the certainty that the market for LNG is shrinking worldwide as climate change is forcing a shift away from carbon fuels in general, and the energy intensity and high up-front capital costs of LNG, and growing awareness of the impact of fugitive natural gas emissions which are making the sector financially unviable.
