According to The New York Times, if the Thwaites Glacier melts or falls apart, it could raise world sea levels by two feet. That would flood parts of some of the world’s largest cities.

How long will fossil fuels be bottled up in the Middle East? Perhaps, off and on, for years. That leaves green energy and nuclear at the center of how the world powers itself.

A new US study shows that the “global climate is in a state of emergency.” It also says that the evidence is obvious.

The number seems staggering. According to the BBC, the world is interconnected enough that deep climate problems worldwide have hit US compensation hard.

It turns out the AI data centers are not the only large draw on electricity; generation has to rely more on fossil fuels. Air conditioning use in the US is surging, and global warming does not help.

Chinese EVs have recently arrived in Canada. They are already selling very well in Europe. Experts think most are better than those made by traditional manufacturers, who have also retreated from the market. Consumers want less expensive EVs. Tariffs won’t last forever.

Gas prices in parts of California are already moving toward $6. It has 14% of America’s population. If oil goes to $120 for a month or more, the math, which is oil compared to gas, moves gas prices to $7

The sales of used Cybertrucks have been unusually strong? Why? More people are buying EVs because of gas prices. Also, the Cybertruck is $100,000 new. People can pay half of that for a used model.

After rapid growth over the last decade, green energy investment rose only 7% last year to $1.96 trillion. The worst news was that investment in China, the world’s leader in the sector, fell.

At first, it doesn’t make sense. Solar should benefit from oil’s loss, but many solar components are being blocked at the entrance to the Strait of Hormuz.

The Trump Administration may pay a wind energy company $1 billion to drop a current offshore project. He has lost his challenges to the industry in court. This may be his only avenue.

BYD, the world’s largest EV company, is sending EVs to Canada. The Trump Administration has 100%

Attacks on refineries in the Middle East have sent oil prices to $115. That means $5 gas for Americans and higher prices for other items. That, in turn, threatens a recession. President Trump has just approved a major offshore drilling project that will add to crude supply. However, this endangers the environment in the Gulf…

Most people think storms across the US cause damage because of tornado destruction or high winds. Not so, say the journal Science. The big destruction comes from hail.

The Trump Administration has tried to block offshore wind projects. He has lost most of the court challenges to uphold the ban. However, he said he would continue to take more wind out of green air initiatives

Trump has sued to water down the Clean Air Act in California. It was created to make EVs more attractive. The President says people should be able to buy any car they want to.

NVIDIA’s new AI chips use less electricity than older models. If that is true, pressure on electricity prices for Americans could ease.

As EV cars emerged, so did truck versions. Truckers stayed with diesel, which is near $5 a gallon. That makes the math of the truck industry ugly. And, a slowdown in trucking hurts the US supply chain.

The US says that the ongoing reliance on fossil fuels to provide the world’s energy is foolish and will only cause more trouble over time.

No matter what people think of the Middle East war politically, it is driving oil prices above $100. That means $5 gas. It also means other parts of the US supply chain are broken. Inflation causes discretionary income to drop. Falling income almost always causes a recession.
