The Financial Insanity of California’s “Renewable” Energy

/by
AUDIO: California’s state legislature is mandating a conversion to “renewables” that not only waste raw materials and destroy the environment, they are incredibly expensive. Meanwhile, the legislature is ignoring energy solutions that would address climate concerns while delivering abundant energy at a fraction of the cost. In this discussion, for example, a direct comparison is made between the cost for floating offshore wind, vs. the cost to retrofit existing natural gas power plants to sequester their emissions underground – enjoy an enlightening 40 minutes of Edward Ring with Will Swaim on the National Review podcast Radio Free California (Ring’s segment starts at 48:20).

Optimism Can Realign America

/by

Here are some ideas for how that city might look, and how the special interests in opposition might be persuaded to come aboard. Segment begins at 19:15 – 8 minutes with The Free Cities Center – Edward Ring with the Pacific Research Institute’s Steven Greenhut.

Reflections on America’s Uniparty

Climate Discussion at Orange County Water Summit 2023

/by

AUDIO: The climate change panel at the Orange County Water Summit, October 13, 2023. My remarks begin at 14:20, 30:45, and 48:25. Main point? Senate Bill 1157, which will limit indoor water use to 42 gallons per person per day by 2030, will cost an estimated $7 billion (before overruns) and save an estimated 413,000 acre feet per year. This yields an extremely poor cost/benefit. That amount, 413,000 acre feet, is less than one-half of one percent of the water Californians withdraw, on average in dry years, to serve the needs of the state’s farms, cities, and to maintain ecosystems.
