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

‘America’s Energy Dominance and Manufacturing Revival’ (Trump Remarks, August 13, 2019)
By Robert Bradley Jr. -- August 19, 2019 3 Comments“[The Paris Accord] would have taken away our wealth…. We had to pay money to other countries that are very substantial countries. They wanted to take away your wealth. They didn’t want you to drill. They didn’t want you to frack. They didn’t want you to do steel.”
But what we want now is not independence; we want American energy dominance. Dominance
– President Donald Trump, August 13, 2019
At the construction site of Royal Dutch Shell’s Pennsylvania Petrochemicals Complex in western Pennsylvania last week, President Trump delivered an industrial speech that clearly distinguished his energy exceptionalism, energy dominance, energy optimism theme versus the climate-doom, keep-it-in-the-ground, Green-New-Deal worldview. The backdrop is Beaver County, Pennsylvania where a badly needed, long-awaited manufacturing revival is in process.

By Charles Battig -- August 7, 2019 4 Comments[Editor note: The author, a longtime critic of activist government climate policy, takes on a recent climate plan by the City of Houston. His open letter to Lara Cottingham, Houston Chief Sustainability Officer, City of Houston, follows.]
“Explain how 8 per cent wind and solar will replace 62 per cent reliable energy 24/7. Texas winds may be a bit more steady, but during heat spells, wind activity … falls just when it is needed the most.”
” A logical conclusion is that the city and staff may have an agenda for wishing to ration energy in the city not related to temperature or climate change, or perhaps that they are uninformed of these climate/energy facts.
Houston City government and staff have arbitrarily decided to pledge, figuratively speaking, allegiance to U.N.…
