Might read about how things are going in California: The Economic Impacts of California's Major Climate Programs on the San Joaquin Valley | Next 10 I suppose we all want job creation. If govt. funding is tight, we might want to limit tax breaks and other financial inducements to all forms of energy production. Are these things of interest, that could be safely discussed here without politicization?
Ken Lay the biggest thief on the planet,installed Swartzenegger as gov to back CO2 cap and trade.Nuff said to anyone with brains who isn't brainwashed.
Ken Lay? C'mon, Steyer squirrel Steyer squirrel (and so on). Anything so as to not talk about how to increase employment and improve energy access. How to keep people from thinking about those two things? Little-known fact. I lost junior high school spelling bee by having brain-freeze on my word: 'squirrel'. Only recently has that word re-emerged in importance. Things do loop around in strange ways.
California's cap and trade program is described here: Cap-and-Trade Program | California Air Resources Board
California state economy grew >4% in 2015; not bad, others may address it in more detail? Economy of California - Wikipedia This might be viewed as conflict between innovation (which is huge) and 'drag' from de-emphasing fossil E. Somebody local could help us understand? I don't mean this to be only a California discussion. Perhaps it is true that only innovative economies are now able to rapidly unshackle themselves from fossil-E. Somebody elsewhere could help us understand? If renewable-E can make a case in terms of economy and employment, it will grow faster. If, not it will grow as now (which looks slow to me). That's all. But of course there will always be squirrels.
Ken Lay installed Swartzenegger as (California) governor@2. The latter first elected as governor in 2003. The former's company Enron was bankrupt in 2001. It seems magical powers are being invoked here. If Lay had them, he'd have done better to use them to avoid dying..
