Russian gas addiction is a very real problem for Europe (and soon Boston?) but the solution is no mystery. It’s fracking here, LNG and development of UK gas.

Fractivists are battling a natural gas power plant in Southeastern Pennsylvania in a place called Nicetown, pulling all the usual not-so-nice stunts.
Last November a group of environmental thugs pledged to “swarm” and shut down a SEPTA (Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority) meeting where a vote would be taken to build a Marcellus gas-powered electric plant that would provide electricity to SEPTA’s northern Regional Rail lines, …

Fractivists and other radical enviros are too often portrayed as altruistic when, in fact, they embody some of the very worst of very special interests.
Self-described environmentalists and most fractivists typically get the benefit of any doubt as being altruistic, community-minded, socially conscious protecters of nature and all that is good. The truth, though, is that there is, more often than not, special interests at stake. Sometimes it’s simply an…

The fractivist movement started as the trendy cause of trust-funders, grew into an environment wacko rite and is now represented by masked KKK types.
The signs are all there if you bother pay attention; the fractivist movement is rapidly becoming irrelevant. Yes, there’s still lots of noise. And, behind the curve demagogues such as Andrew “Corruptocrat” Cuomo and Phil “the Panderer” Murphy are still slavishly paying it more attention than it deserves.…

A recent celebration by the Open Space Institute offers a window on gentry class fractivist enablers pursuing not only more riches, but also peer approval.
If you really want to understand fractivist enablers—members of the Haas, Heinz, Park and Rockefeller families, you must go here. A bit of caution, though. It could well make you throw up in disgust. I’m talking about nothing more than a news release and a collection of professional photographs, but I…

We have, of the course of the revolution, gone from a bleak future of continued dependence for energy on “death to America” spirited suppliers to…
