Dear Mr. President

Dear Mr President,

Ukraine is clearly another Western geopolitical stunt to stop Russian exports of oil and gas to Europe so they can be replaced by filthy fossil fuels from US fracking and Canadian tar sand oil. We are facing a devastating final show down with Mother Nature which is being accelerated by the filthy extraction of fossil fuels by fracking, tar sands and coal mining and continent wide oil transport in the US.

Call your troops home so they can immediately assist in assembling giant solar power stations, wind farms and converting all road and rail transport to electricity. Immediately terminate all gas fracking, tar sand oil extraction, oil transport, coal mining and all the giant subsidies paid to fossil fuel companies. This money must be solely spent on constructing renewable energy power stations and infrastructure. 

You will be held accountable by US citizens and the world if you do not stop this extreme American pollution, the fast approaching methane firestorm and our extinction by 2050.

Yours Truly,

Malcolm Peter Light (Dr)
Earth Scientist

Energy bill: raise renewable energy

The government will publish its long-awaited draft energy bill later on, intended to support major speculation in clean energy production and help boost security of supply. They will also initiate an Emissions Performance Standard, intended to avoid the construction of novel, dirty coal plant life. More precision is desirable over the government's long-term strategy, mainly how it will attain stringent C02 reduction targets.

Nuclear power had formed a main part of the government's plans to raise clean power production to help out hit its goal of reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 80%. The opinion of the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) is that £110bn of investment over the next decade is required to boost current production. This bill will also offer for a capacity mechanism, effectively payments to power stations to make sure there is sufficient and reliable capability to meet demand.
