Energy Prospectus

Excellent read from Real Clear Energy for anyone interested in energy policy. Author is an energy entrepreneur, investor and writer who is committed to the environment. Twenty years of working toward renewable energy goals and investing in energy taught him a few things about green energy and energy in general. His essay starts a bit slow, but his conclusions are solid. The comments (intelligent and well-informed) are also worth reading.

Snippet:

I’m still on a mission to protect the beautiful landscapes I fell in love with when I was a young man. And I’m still committed to raising worldwide living standards, reducing pollution, and lowering greenhouse gas emissions. But my firsthand experience has exposed the futility of chasing utopian energy sources. I’ve learned the mainstream narrative about what we should do to protect the environment will never accomplish those goals.
