Flashes: June 4, 2014

Washington Post-ABC News Poll finds that majority of Americans think carbon should be regulated, even if it results in higher energy bills.

[BTW, there's no proof it will.]

Republican and Democratic pollsters find that by 2-1 margin, Americans believe controlling air pollution is important, AND it will lead to more jobs.

[BTW, it likely will.]

Opposition to fracking is growing. (Or in fairness, it grew rapidly in 2013. And the same poll finds majority support for Keystone XL.)

[BTW, it should until companies put in all the controls to make it 99.99999% safe for humans and the environment.]

Majority of Ohioans favor renewable energy (as long as it creates jobs) and want to end coal and nuclear. (Yes, poll was paid for by a clean-energy business association....but the "business" part of that means it's trustworthy...right?)

[BTW, since renewables create more jobs per $ than coal, it's a win-win for Ohio.]

Enjoy the journey!
