Energy Secretary Chu's Wish List: Cap-and-Trade and Cheaper Solar

Secretary Chu is a very smart man. I agree that cheaper solar would do wonders to mainstream the technology, however, cap and trade/tax needs to be vetted more so that the White House message is less "intellectual" and more "blue collar."

A New American Energy Policy

Nice plan. The one problem I have is your limited focus on reducing "oil and oil based energy" rather than fossil fuels in general. You might modify your plan by acknowledging natural gas as a bridge fuel or perhaps coal with carbon capture and storage, but you need to include these along with oil.

Serious Research Balances Costs and Environmental Benefits of Climate Policy

Nice brief on the EMF and its activities. I agree that enviros did a great job linking energy and climate change in 2006 and 2007 (public angst over high gas prices, record oil profits and natural disasters).

Bigger question now seems to be whether the new Congress and Administration will pick up cap and trade where we left off last summer, or will energy and climate change policy continue to decouple.
