Denver Post: Days after the U.N.-backed climate change panel of scientists urged a radical shift toward wind and solar energy to slow accelerating greenhouse-gas pollution, U.S. state attorneys general on Wednesday focused on ramped-up production of fossil fuels. The intensifying oil and gas boom in Colorado and neighboring states is out-pacing health and environment rules that the state attorneys have to defend. And as elected officials they're trying to help capitalize on huge economic opportunities -- especially...

Whats more, we can avert this global crisis without sacrificing living standards of the developed industrialised world. That`s the message I read from the IPCC fifth assessment report on mitigation released on April 13, 2014 in Berlin. This UN report essentially says the transformation needed to a clean energy world or low carbon growth is possible. I...
