I try to stay away from "information" on energy and climate change as much as I can, especially on Twitter. It's baffling how people still refuse to see the effects of climate change for what that are. Or how our dependence on Russian fossil fuels somehow leads people to believe that the way forward is more of that stuff.

I'm sorry Joachim but I really must ask, what kind of conference offered up such nonsense on their agenda? There is no serious forum specifically on energy that could get away with it. And what kind of audience were they peddling this misinformation to - investment bankers? - and how was it received? Hopefully like you they saw straight through this foolishness.

I am not going to say what conference it was, but suffice it to say it was in a country that produces and uses a lot of coal and the audience (investment managers) was very glad to hear that coal has a future.

Sorry to hear that. Sounds like the kind of folks who are going to wind up with plenty of stranded or distressed assets on their books.

You sir are a moron. How do I unsubscribe from this?

Is the moron the person writing the newsletter, or the person who cannot figure out how to unsubscribe from the newsletter they chose to subscribe to?

I am glad you have so many cogent arguments and data points to support your opinion. To quote from your description: "Lifetime John Birch Society member. Attended 3 Birch camps as a teen." I get it.

Why does no one talk about energy conservation anymore?

Was it because Jimmy Carter wore a sweater in the White House.

Question you hear a lot now but no good answers: carbon footprint gas in pipelines vs LNG? Seems from an ecological standpoint LNG is very undesirable but as I have no glue other views very welcome.
