As a subscriber, you may have noticed that I haven’t published this newsletter in quite a while (though the frequency of blog posts on the website hasn’t diminished; we have a total of 15,700+, growing daily).

When it was originally conceived, 2GreenEnergy focused largely on the business aspects of renewable energy, but over the years our mission became broader.

While my associates and I remain poised to help our clients in any of dozens of different business disciplines, most of the new content on the site over the past few years has had little to do with commerce, and has concentrated on the imperative to phase of fossil fuels in favor of low-carbon alternatives so as to avert climate catastrophe, and that normally means confronting the political issues that stand in the way.

Sure, there are occasional posts on technology and economics, but today’s readers are most likely to see thoughts on:

• Putting constraints on Big Oil’s stranglehold on our lawmaking processes, and removing money from politics of all sorts, e.g., gun safety laws.

• Ensuring that Donald Trump never gets anywhere near the White House ever again, and, to whatever degree possible, removing “Trumpism” as an animating factor in American society.

• Accepting science as core of policymaking in climate change mitigation, pandemic control, etc.

• Understanding a variety of other related social issues, e.g., restoring quality education, maintaining the separation of church and state, and empowering women.

• Looking at the subject of sustainability more generally: agriculture, clean water, micro-plastics, mass transit, etc.

As we enter our 15th year, I want to thank everyone who’s contributed to furthering the cause of environmental responsibility, and that means you, regardless of the actual role you’ve played.
