2 WEEKS LEFT IN IRAN NUKE NEGOTIATIONS. Iran unemployed 20%, inflation 25%, $100B assets frozen abroad, serious air pollution getting worse (oil products sanctions.) .... Syria uprising partly from severe drought '06-'09 caused by global warming climate change: NAS study .... Canada duties on China solar products enacted March 5 .... India may cut roof solar subsidies in half .... US Supreme Court ruled unanimous that agencies don't have to post public notice for interpretative rule revisions. IRS, DOE, etc. affected. (Well, G, good transparancy, A?) Unanimous?! What the hay?! When do they ever go unanimous? .... Florida officials banned the term "global warming" .... Most of canned tuna sold in US not "ocean safe": Greenpeace .... Denali's air quality ranks among top in world: study .... US E coast liberal senators object to offshore oil/gas leasing. (O those liberal senators.) .... US public transportation ridership highest since '50's. (Well, there's a lot more of us since '50's.) .... New tires could generate power ....

Next Era Energy wants to buy 250Mw Jacksonville coal power plant to shut it down in 2-3 yrs. $520M dealio. Would save customers ~$70M, elim ~1M tons carbon emiss/yr. FL Power paying $120M/yr for capacity/maintenance with annual increases on deal expiring in '24. (Really!) .... US western states want to make seasonal time change permanent. (Which one? Hopefully the one we get more sleep.) .... Adjusted for inflation, 1970 $13 oil would be $78 today. (Kids, check out inflation. 6x in 45 yrs. Do the math. Use it to your advantage.) ....
