If anyone asks for proof that conservatives can confront carbon emissions and climate change, I like to point West.
First, I urge people to examine the record of George Schultz. As I’ve said, he’s a long-time supporter of cap & trade.
Then, I point to the chairman of Townhall.com, Doug Wilson. He’s blogged for us here at [...]

Over the last two weeks, I’ve been talking about the need to get conservative voices into the debate over energy and the environment (see part 1 here, and part 2 here). My views on these issues have generated quite a debate among our readers, and I’ve taken some heat over them, particularly when it [...]

If you live in Washington, DC, New York or Southern California and see a driver in a Chevy Equinox pointing and laughing as you pull into your local gas station to fill-up, try not to take offense. That driver may be one of the lucky few who are test driving one of General Motors’ [...]

Well, last week’s post about Newt Gingrich and green conservatism generated quite a debate among our readers and quickly became, I believe, the most-read post in the history of Terra Rossa. So I thought I’d try to keep that discussion going by talking a little bit more about some of the issues raised by that [...]

So warbled Kermit the Frog many years ago. Wikipedia says the song “is associated with problems with identity,” and I’m sure a few noteworthy conservative conservationists can relate.
Newt Gingrich is one. As my fellow Terra Rossa contributor Whit Ayres pointed out last week, Newt has been feeling the heat for his position on climate [...]

The other night I watched a Wal-Mart commercial that was selling organic coffee. The tag line was “if all 220,000,000 Wal-Mart shoppers purchased a pound of these (magic) beans we could help the environment.” The next commercial I watched had a woman telling me that Silk Soy milk donates a portion of the [...]

Here’s the latest development in creative solar technology, courtesy of Reuters: giant solar balloons.
Israeli scientists are working on a way to put flexible solar panels on large, helium-filled balloons, that would float hundreds of yards in the air, collecting the sun’s rays, and transmitting the energy to homes and businesses below. The balloons could [...]

Recently I’ve seen a bunch of news stories like this quoting folks who feel cap & trade is too risky because the technology isn’t yet available to help America meet greenhouse gas emission caps.
Well, that’s not exactly the case. A study published in Science magazine by Princeton University researchers R. Socolow and S. [...]

I wanted to bring to the attention of our readers an illuminating interview that the Wall Street Journal’s Alan Murray and Kimberley Strassel conducted with GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt this week.
In the interview, available here, Mr. Immelt covers a wide variety of energy and environmental topics from a capitalist perspective. It’s fascinating to read his [...]
