uspol, energy crisis

The so-called "National Energy Emergency" E.O. is likely moot:
blogs.law.columbia.edu/climate

However, if SCOTUS allows it to stand, reversing course on Biden v. Nebraska, its broad wording will get interesting.
presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/

«Facilitate [...] domestic energy resources [...] Federal eminent domain authorities or authorities afforded under the Defense Production Act» also applies to power grid expansion (e.g. under IRA) and wind/solar power permits.

🏭 Carbon capture more costly than switching to renewables, researchers find

｢ Annual energy costs, the authors concluded, would decline by nearly 60%. Hundreds of millions of illnesses and 5 million deaths per year related to air pollution from energy—whether from woodburning cookstoves and kerosene lamps or from gas-fired power stations—would be avoided ｣

💥 Climate change target of 2C is ‘dead’, says renowned climate scientist
—The Guardian

“The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPPC) defined a scenario which gives a 50% chance to keep warming under 2C – that scenario is now impossible,” he said. “The 2C target is dead, because the global energy use is rising, and it will continue to rise.”

Fossil propaganda

Reuters does propaganda in such a way, I can't even be mad at them:
theguardian.com/world/2025/feb

1 paragraph update of the day, 15 paragraphs of filler, 1 final paragraph with the actual facts. Skip the middle and you get the news: 3 billion dollars spent on additional fossil infrastructure to make power grids more fragile.

How wonderful, I'm delighted by our successful cooperation between humans in the face of #ClimateChange.

Ah yes, more #FossilSubsidies. Just what we needed for the #EU budget.

«The same EU official said that one option currently under consideration in Brussels is for the EU to subsidize purchases of LNG for countries that currently rely on Russian gas, paying them any difference in price to switch to a U.S. supplier.»

☢️ If that's the only obstacle it'll definitely happen under Trump.

｢ Energy prices would increase significantly and there’s no explanation for how rising demand for power will be met even before big power plants drop out of the supply mix ｣
