STUFF

DC Circuit Court ordered EPA to wait on taking over Texas GHG permitting. Fed regs on CO2 took effect Monday.

Chicago Climate Exchange closed US's first cap/trade GHG system Dec 31. Euro Climate Exchange, Chicago Climate Futures Exchange continuing on. Calif's recent move toward mandatory emissions trading should help the mart.

DOE-supported (8 years) coal cleaning tech succeeding in AL commercial demo. Air pressure and centrifuge. Not that high of tech right? Successfully reduced moisture in coal slurry. Can reuse the coal waste. Est. 2B tons coal waste in US (per year?). This is good news, A?

The gov opened up deepwater drilling to 13 companies on Monday. Those 13 are small independents and majors that had billions tied up in idled projects. Brock's not an idiot.

2nd year in a row no new coal plants built in US. Cough cough less less. Tho, you know what pards? I'll now take coal plants powering EVs to keep oil price falling. Yes, even with the pollution. Because cleaner coal is a coming. Who has the oil. Who controls the oil price. And that's pumped gas. And that's money out of our pockets.

And that's the veritable that as I see the that. Happy trails pards.
