** Americans are feeling Biden's one year anniversary at the pump and in everything they buy.
------------------------------------------------------------
Inside Sources ([link removed]) (1/19/22) reports: "Joe Biden kicked off his presidency on January 20, 2021, by killing the Keystone XL pipeline. For the newly-elected Democrat, it was a message affirming his commitment to green energy policies. For the energy industry, America’s allies abroad, and skilled workers at home, however, the impacts of Biden’s actions were far more concrete. 'Killing 10,000 jobs and taking $2.2 billion in payroll out of workers’ pockets is not what Americans need or want right now,' Andy Black, President and CEO of the Association of Oil Pipelines, said at the time...Neal Crabtree, a welding foreman from Fouke, Ark., lost his job when Biden pulled the pipeline’s permit. But he says he has bigger concerns than his own paycheck. 'I was worried by the tone being set by the Biden administration,' Crabtree said. 'A direct attack on energy in this country seemed to be the president’s highest
priority.nNow we’re seeing rising energy prices. Private companies are reluctant to develop new pipelines because of the outrageous permitting process. Pipelines, just like roads and bridges in this country, are aging. To neglect our pipelines is a dangerous thing. We saw how dependent we are on them when the Colonial Pipeline was shut down last year.' Dan Kish, Distinguished Senior Fellow for the Washington, D.C.-based Institute for Energy Research, agrees. 'We saw it as a body blow to American energy security,' he said."

** "Virginia's new Governor Glenn Youngkin is doing the right thing pulling out of the 'carbon tax' Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) program by executive action. Next, he should work to repeal or modify the electric generation plan."

(1/20/22) column: "Britain faces a severe cost-of-living crunch from April, when sharply higher gas and electricity bills will coincide with scheduled tax increases and rapid inflation for other goods and services, which is eroding real disposable incomes. Even before the pandemic, there were 3.2 million households in England (13.4% of all households in the country) living in fuel poverty, according to the government's own statistics, most recently for 2019. Fuel poor households were characterised by low incomes and low levels of energy efficiency, which left them needing an extra 216 pounds on average each year to reach minimal acceptable standards of affordability and comfort. Fuel poverty was concentrated in some of the most deprived regions of the country, correlating with low average incomes and ageing, low-quality and often badly insulated housing stock...The subsequent rise in gas and electricity prices, with much larger increases planned from April, will push millions more
households into fuel poverty, and those already there deeper into fuel deprivation. If gas and electricity price increases go ahead as planned, the average household energy bill is forecast to jump from less than 1,300 pounds to around 2,000 pounds per year, according to the Resolution Foundation ('Averting a looming energy bill crisis', Jan. 17)."

All these solar panels, and not an electron to spare.

(1/17/22) reports: "China’s coal production reached record levels last year as the state encouraged miners to ramp up their fossil fuel output to safeguard the country’s energy supplies through the winter gas crisis. The world’s biggest coal producer and consumer mined 384.67m tonnes of the fossil fuel last month, easily topping its previous record of 370.84m tonnes set in November, after the government called for miners to work at maximum capacity to help fuel the country’s economic growth. Official government figures show that China’s coal binge also spurred the country to record high coal output over the year as a whole. Chinese coal production climbed to an all-time high of 4.07bn tonnes, up 4.7% on the previous year, in a blow to climate campaigners months after the UN’s Cop26 climate talks in Glasgow. The International Energy Agency (IEA) predicted that global consumption of coal power, which is the world’s single biggest source of climate emissions, would reach record levels in 2021
driven by a surge in demand for energy to kickstart global economies following the coronavirus pandemic. China’s record coal consumption comes weeks after the conclusion of the Cop26 climate talks, which ended in a fierce disagreement over a pledge to abandon coal. A last-minute intervention by India successfully watered down the language of the pact from 'phasing out' to 'phasing down'."
