With only 47 days left until election day, candidates have buckled down on larger issues such as climate change and the future of the energy sector. President Trump and vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris visited California this past week to observe the damage done by the recent wildfires. According to the Los Angeles Times, California Governor Gavin Newsom touted extreme energy goals while the President was there, telling reporters: “While we’re leading the nation in low-carbon green growth, as we’ve led the nation in our efforts to decarbonize our economy, we’re going to have to do more, and we’re going…

Today, California and 19 other states filed a lawsuit challenging the Trump administration’s rollbacks on methane emissions rules for the oil and gas industry from the Obama administration. Reuters reports: The lawsuit is California’s 54th against the Trump administration to challenge rollbacks to key environmental protections. California is joined in the lawsuit by 19 other Democrat-led states, including rising oil and gas producer New Mexico, and four districts and municipalities. President Trump is scheduled to visit California today to be briefed on the state’s wildfires, meeting with local and federal personnel. California Governor Gavin Newsom will join Trump for the…

Last month’s attacks on Saudi Arabian oil fields temporarily cut off more than 50 percent of Saudi oil from reaching the global market, which means the world’s second-largest oil producer threatened business in every nation. Gas prices in the U.S. rose a mere 10 cents nationwide in the week after the attacks and have since ticked down a few cents. A big reason gas prices didn’t spike is due to the thriving U.S. oil production, which has doubled since 2012 to about 12.5 million barrels a day and added about six million barrels to global supply. America’s spike in domestic…

Last month we told you about Berkeley, California’s ridiculous plan to ban natural gas. In July, Berkeley became the first city in America to “kick natural gas out of homes and businesses.” Under a new law passed by the city, natural gas would be banned from most new homes and businesses, including restaurants that use natural gas for stoves. We explained that this was eco-madness.  For people and restaurants, there are major advantages to gas cooking, including finer temperature control, quicker temperature response times, easy cleaning, and reliability when the power goes out. Gas heating is typically “half the price of electric heating.” Now, it seems,…

Last week, we told you how Berkeley, California became the first city in America to “kick natural gas out of homes and businesses.” Under a new law passed by the city, natural gas will be banned from most new homes and businesses, including restaurants that use natural gas for stoves. Environmentalists lauded the move, which was predictable for a city that has long been a hotbed of far-left extremism. The Sierra Club even called the ban a “roadmap for other counties and cities across the country to follow.” Well, it unfortunately appears that other California cities are listening. Inside Climate News, a…

Are you an aspiring home cook? Do you like to watch and replicate the dishes on the Food Network? Perhaps you even own a restaurant and rely on food for your livelihood. Or do you use gas to heat your home and keep your family safe? Well, if you live in Berkeley, California, you can thank extreme eco-politicians for making your life a Kitchen Nightmare. On Tuesday, Berkeley, California became the first city in America to “kick natural gas out of homes and businesses.” Under a new law passed by the city, natural gas will be banned from most new…

The left always claims that their eco-policies are about helping the environment. But history tells us that’s not the case. In reality, they want to expand government power, raise taxes, and funnel money toward causes they like under the guise of environmentalism. Just take one look at California’s “cap-and-trade” system, and this is patently obvious. Today, the Los Angeles Times editorial board blasted California lawmakers for turning cap-and-trade into a “slush fund” for politicians. The editorial board explains how “California lawmakers are about to prove” the critics of cap-and-trade right by using tax revenue from cap-and-trade for non-environmental spending. Though the state is “legally…
