Iran ready to cooperate with Japan on nuke plant?! Think it might be cover?

The unload:

WY produces ~40% of our coal @ ~$12/ton. Eastern coal ~$60/ton.

China invested $34B in clean E in '09. US $18B.

Biodiversity disappearing at above 1000X natural rate. ~60% of ecosystems have degraded or unsustainable. 50 countries face moderate or severe water stress. Out of what, 188? 216?

There is argument for no energy subsidies at all.

World must invest $46T in clean energy by 2050. Hell, will we be here? To reduce GHG's to 14 Gigatons. Their words not mine. IEA. Cost of inaction goes up $500B/y. What doesn't?

Lake Superior. Not Mother Superior. Lake Superior. And all the Great Lakes are warming. Ice cover down ~20% last 37 years, Superior this yr may exceed 68F, record from '98. Summer a month early.

How often do we get anything inspirational from our Congress or the White House or the Supreme Court? Isn't it every day? And if it isn't, shouldn't it be? And our Nobel Prize winner Energy Sec at the conference on energy says let's paint our roofs white. And he can't even get LED lighting into his own buildings. O he must have said other things too. Who doesn't. Maybe it's the dam media who's frackin us apart. Man. Sure wish I knew something.

That's the come and the go, children and pards. I wish I could give you gooder news. Maybe it's there and I'm just not seeing it. Happy trailers y'all. And if you don't have a trailer, what do you have?
