ICE vehicles waste a whopping 80% of the energy in their fuel. Electric vehicles are propelled by entirely different mechanisms. Energy enters the vehicle as electricity, which directly powers the drivetrain: EVs need not convert one form of energy to another resulting in much higher efficiency.

Exxon to β€˜pace’ low-carbon spending blaming weak demand and bad policies CEO Darren Woods says rules reminiscent of β€˜centrally planned economies’ have failed to support green products

Headline: ExxonMobil doesn't care about people and the climate because oil is simply too profitable.

Why don't airlines pay the air traffic controllers? Taxpayers should maybe think about why they are footing the bill for airline execs to get richer. Viva!

China found in U.S. archives an energy source that could power its future for 20,000 years - and made it work I’m not exaggerating.

It's nice to have some good news. This feels pretty big. Very happy to see a successful conversion of thorium into uranium in a molten salt reactor.

It was such a singular act of political cynicism that I'm bewildered that Canadians still feel compelled to trust the Liberals, especially now that they seem determined to manufacture a majority by tempting/bribing opposition MP's to cross the floor. Viva!

OR, the Big Red machine is throwing some promises/money around. Self-interest and greed are powerful motivators. Could they be buying a majority? Very much so. Viva!

China’s clean-energy revolution will reshape markets and politics The world’s biggest manufacturer now has an interest in the world decarbonising

Canada is talking pipelines and LNG and 10 years from now that lack of foresight is going to bite us in the ass. We are not going to be an energy superpower if we don't embrace renewables. Viva!

The US is the world's largest oil and gas producer. Yet, "China is now making more money from exporting green technology than America makes from exporting fossil fuels."

The Hidden Dangers in Canada’s Oil and Gas Ambitions Carney, Hodgson, Smith led astray by misguided energy demand forecasting

The Hidden Dangers in Canada’s Oil and Gas Ambitions

@MarkJCarney, @timhodgsonmt, @ABDanielleSmith have been led astray by misguided energy demand forecasting.

IMO, global oil demand will begin to decline by the early 2030s.

Build a pipeline? NO. NEVER.
