AWED Energy & Environmental Newsletter: December 14, 2015

By -- December 14, 2015

The Alliance for Wise Energy Decisions (AWED) is an informal coalition of individuals and organizations interested in improving national, state, and local energy and environmental policies. Our premise is that technical matters like these should be addressed by using Real Science (please consult WiseEnergy.org for more information).

A key element of AWED’s efforts is public education. Towards that end, every three weeks we put together a newsletter to balance what is found in the mainstream media about energy and the environment. We appreciate MasterResource for their assistance in publishing this information.

—————————————

Special Note 1: All US Citizens should take one minute to formally object to a proposed extension of the wind PTC. (Please pass this email onto your lists.) [PTC Elimination Act now has 50 co-sponsorsHorse trading in Congress: Lifting oil ban for extending wind and solar tax credits, and 7 U.S. Senators Opposed to Extension of PTC.]

Special Note 2: Since the dust has yet to settle, we’ll have a special Newsletter edition just about the Paris talks later this week.

Our proposed national energy slogan is “All of the Sensible” (in contrast to the absurd “All of the Above”). Once legislators have grasped that concept, the foolishness of the “leveling the playing field” idea also becomes apparent. (Should the 18-wheeler trucks and golf cart playing field be leveled?) Additionally we should be using the term “unreliables” when speaking of renewables. Please pass these on.
