Nominee To Run the U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Labeled a "Radical"

Apparently, the nomination of Ron Binz to lead the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is causing a great deal more controversy than I thought it wouldSmartGridNews reports running across everything from praise, all the way to charges that Binz is a “radical.”

Actually, in this case, being called a radical IS praise in my book.  The changes that need to occur to our current approach to energy should extend to its very roots (the derivation of the word).

And what is he saying that earned him this hateful moniker?  That we need to phase out the use of fossil fuels in the next 20+ years (by 2035)?  Shocking!  What’s he smoking? 🙂
