From the year I became an entrepreneur in 1984 until I moved into another line of work (environmental sustainability) in 2009, I’m guessing that my company (initially I myself) hired, say, 300 people. My policy was always: if two candidates for a position are roughly equally capable, and one is a white male and the other is a minority, hire the latter over the former.

I have always wanted to do my part to make our world a better, more inclusive place to live.

The notion that our civilization is falling apart because of anticapitalist wokeism is appealing to hateful white supremacist idiots, but few people beyond those limits.

Understanding Pete Hegseth

What is said here about Pete Hegseth is clearly true.

But keep in mind that he’s fiercely loyal to Donald Trump, and Trump couldn’t possibly care what happens to the United States, as long as he can stay out of prison and enrich himself and his family.

Does Clean Energy Reduce Your Energy Bills?

Here’s an article that outlines how the EU has lowered energy prices via its investment in renewables.

In truth, the economics of all this is complicated.  In most of the world, there are subsidies for clean energy, just as there are subsidies for Big Oil.  If you want to remove the environmental regulations of coal-fired power plants and let them make fortunes by turning our atmosphere into their own private sewers, you can probably make coal-powered energy very inexpensive.

One thing is clear though, looking through all this complexity: the countries whose people actually care about the future of life on Earth are aggressively decarbonizing their energy and transportation sectors, and there is a great deal to be said for this.

In the United States, we’re rapidly going in the other direction.  Shame on us.

Another Concept in Small Wind

Published

These guys have an innovation in small wind: their turbine “furls up” in dangerously high wind conditions, making it “perfect for your backyard.” Check out this video. The competition has to shut down to avoid having their product destroyed in such circumstances.

Think about this for a second.  How often do you have hurricane-force winds blowing through your backyard?  What if it’s a tornado?  (It’s a twister! It’s a twister!) What would be the cost to you if your mini-turbine actually did have to shut down a few hours each year?

These guys are looking for investors.  If their pitch resonates with you, jump on in, by all means.
