Texas

Posted on June 2, 2015 by climatechangefork

Carbon taxation in any form will probably never make it in Texas. It’s a red state that likes its independence, especially when a Democrat presides in Washington. Historically, its residents have shared an intense hatred of regulations and taxes. To … Continue reading →

Posted on March 3, 2015 by climatechangefork

Last week, I looked at the IPAT identity and the conflict between striving for affluence and aiming to keep greenhouse gas emissions from energy use low. One of the graphs showed that of the 25 major countries presented, India has … Continue reading →

India – Lighthouse for the IPAT

Posted on February 24, 2015 by climatechangefork
