Welcome to 2GreenEnergyTo those who have been with us since our inception in 2009, as well as to those who are just joining us now for the first time, here’s a brief summary of what we at 2GreenEnergy are all about.  We offer:

• A platform on which we connect cleantech entrepreneurs with sources of investment capital. (more…)

To the idiot who sent me this:

They told us education is bad because it creates people capable of thinking.

Every step we take downward into the depths of ignorance brings a new level of pain and desperation as we watch the United States fall deeper in the abyss.

Worth noting: the rest of the world haven’t become morons.  What happened here?

At left is an interesting twist on the case for social democracies.  In short: Investing in people pays off.

As they say, Education is expensive, but the cost of ignorance is far higher.

Have we hit the tipping point on climate change?  For example, has the melting permafrost in the Arctic released so much methane that a runaway feedback loop has been established?

As suggested at left, an analogous question could be asked about the level of corruption in the U.S. government.

A judge has ruled that New York State’s climate “superfund,” modeled after laws that provide money to clean up toxic waste, runs counter to federal law and is therefore invalid.

Eventually, we will have laws that force companies whose actions are ruining the planet to pay for the remediation that must happen to avert environmental collapse. In the meanwhile, we need to expect the fossil fuel industry to continue its ruthless legal attack on such legislation.

The idea expressed at left, i.e., that Trump’s arch–or any single action Trump has taken towards self-aggrandizement is causing his approval rate to plummet–is fallacious.

Sure, a great many of his similar efforts, e.g., putting his name on the Kennedy Center, or issuing coins with his image on them, rankled our souls as Americans.

But let’s face facts, Trump’s approval rating is hovering at just above 30%, meaning that about one-third of U.S. voters don’t care that he’s a petty, spoiled child, a convicted felon, and one of the most despicable people in the history of humankind.

Here’s proof (as if any were needed) that Trump understands that he’s despised and knows that his claims that he’s “respected around the world” are total bullshit.

What Seneca said here is as true today as it was 2000 years ago.

When I was a boy, I predicted that the advancements of science would eventually put an end to religion, but it appears I was wrong.

Dwindling educational standards and pounding levels of propaganda have brought us to the point that 42% of Americans reject the scientific finding that human activity is causing climate change.  These are probably the same idiots who believe that vaccinations are dangerous.

Are you seriously blaming this military catastrophe on Hegseth, rather that the criminal sociopath who appointed him?

Former Labor Secretary Robert Reich says:
I’ve known many other defense secretaries, starting with Cap Weinberger, who served as defense secretary under Reagan.  I can say without fear of contradiction that Pete Hegseth is the stupidest and least qualified of them all.
I adore Robert Reich, but I’m afraid I have bad news for him.  The blending of “stupid” and “least qualified” make Hegseth the perfect candidate.  In 2026, the best person to run the largest military in human history needs to know absolutely nothing about international affairs and military operations and readiness–and even less about sobriety.
All he needs is hatred of blacks, women, and LGBTQs, and rock-solid loyalty to Trump, regardless of the president’s criminality and mental ill-health.

As shown below, there are tons of large clean energy projects slated for construction in the PJM (midAtlantic) region.

Once the Republicans are removed from office and their war on renewables comes to a close, things could get interesting.
