McClatchy Washington Bureau | 55-mph speed limit may have found its Washington patron - 0 views

  •  
    Is the double-nickel speed limit ready for a comeback? Congress thus far has shown no movement toward resurrecting the 55-mph speed limit, but one of the Senate's senior members - Republican John Warner of Virginia - says it's time to start the conversation about an energy-saving national speed limit to help spare Americans from usurious fuel costs.

If You Can Afford It, New Incentives for Home Energy Efficiency - 0 views

  •  
    2009 brings some new incentives for homeowners to adopt energy efficiency from both state and federal sources. The Wall Street Journal reported last week on several of these, including new provisions for tax credits in solar, small wind, and biomass stoves (those burning wood pellets or corn). In addition, this year, both solar and wind residential tax credits can be claimed against the alternative minimum tax. Improvements to weatherize your home could also qualify for an energy efficiency tax credit of up to $500. There are also new credits for upgrading your furnace, boilers, heat pumps, and water heaters. Read more at WSJ.com: http://tinyurl.com/93n535 Link to original post

Food prices | The end of cheap food | Economist.com - 0 views

  • This year biofuels will take a third of America's (record) maize harvest. That affects food markets directly: fill up an SUV's fuel tank with ethanol and you have used enough maize to feed a person for a year. And it affects them indirectly, as farmers switch to maize from other crops. The 30m tonnes of extra maize going to ethanol this year amounts to half the fall in the world's overall grain stocks.

Feinstein's desert protection plan - Los Angeles Times - 0 views

  • Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) has done a lot of admirable work protecting California's wild desert lands from development, but her latest plans for the Mojave threaten to split the state's environmental community and could stall clean- energy projects whose construction should be among the nation's highest priorities.
  •  
    Even with those efforts we support we still have to make hard choices and it is not as easy when struggling against the giant oild companies.
  •  
    Feinstein is working on legislation that would designate hundreds of thousands of acres of desert land as a national monument, which would put them off-limits for solar and wind energy projects. That could result in a green- versus-green confrontation, pitting those who want to protect the desert ecosystem against those who believe renewable-energy projects are a vital part of the struggle to avert catastrophic climate change.

VP Biden Announces Nearly $4 Billion for Smart Grid :: POWER Magazine :: Page 1 of 2 - 0 views

  •  
    On Thursday, while visiting Jefferson City, Mo., with Commerce Secretary Gary Locke, Vice President Joe Biden announced that, as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, more than $3.3 billion in smart grid technology development grants and an additional $615 million for smart grid storage, monitoring, and technology viability were being made available. "By investing in updating the grid now, we will lower utility bills for American families and businesses, lessen our dependence on foreign oil and create good jobs that will drive our economic recovery-a strong return on our investment," Biden said.
