Live Stream: President Trump makes an Announcement on the Paris Climate Agreement

By |June 1st, 2017|Categories: Economy, Environment, Featured, National News, Politics, United States|Tags: , , , |

Donald Trump will be discussing the Paris Climate Agreement via the live stream. Vice President Mike Pence started the live discussion. He brings up several talking points without any real data. After a short introduction to try and build up President Trump by Pence, Donald walks out and announces that our country will withdraw from the climate agreement we made with over 190 countries. All of the data that Trump brought up was negative without noting any of the positive trends in renewable energy. His inability to show unbiased view is a sign of weakness. In addition, Trump lacks

A List of Political Setbacks that the 2020 Administration must Address and Reform

By |May 15th, 2017|Categories: Clean Energy, Economy, Environment, Featured, National News, Politics, United States|Tags: , , , , |

The current political administration is so incompetent, it drove me to keep a document of their poor decisions, and continue to update it for the next three years with vital pieces of government that will need to be reformed following the 2020 presidential election. At the time that this article was first written, the Trump administration had recently completed their first 100 days. After our country fixes all of these mistakes, we can then move forward with higher taxes to pay for healthcare, education and infrastructure. Sentaor Bernie Sanders has stated: "We need to rethink the Electoral College." One of

The Connections between Poor Air Quality and Higher Rates of Cancer

The University of Illinois at Chicago recently released data and research covering the links between poor air quality and water quality with higher rates of cancer. ScienceDaily reported: "But these single factors don't paint a comprehensive picture of what a person is exposed to in their environment -- and may not be as helpful in predicting cancer risk, which is impacted by multiple factors including the air you breathe, the water you drink, the neighborhood you live in, and your exposure to myriad toxins, chemicals and pollutants." - Jyotsna Jagai, research assistant professor of environmental and occupational health in

Emmanuel Macron is Elected as President of French Fifth Republic

By |May 9th, 2017|Categories: Featured, France, Paris, Politics, World News, YouTube|Tags: |

The French Fifth Republic has traditionally been controlled by a two party system with the left-influenced socialist party, Parti Socialiste; and the traditional right, known as Les Républicains. On Sunday, May 7 Emmanuel Macron was elected as the youngest the President of France. His background is heavy in financial management, but he lacks political experience. The lack of political experience, and working as an independent, served to help him get elected with 66.10 percent of the vote. In connection with Donald Trump's recent political win, this also marks a new trend in anti-establishment overall. Both Trump and Macron had no political work experience. A difference

United Kingdom Removes Coal from their Energy Grid for a Day

By |April 30th, 2017|Categories: Clean Energy, Economy, Environment, Europe, Featured, London, National News, Politics, United Kingdom, United States, World News|Tags: , , , |

Traditional forms of energy production are eroding faster than the metal pipes used to extract fossil fuels from the earth. Recently, the United Kingdom completed an entire day without the use of coal to power the country. The country has decreased their production of coal from 20 percent in 2014, to almost little or no production in 2017. Renewable energy continues to replace coal for price efficiency. One counter argument to the progress in sustaining the environment with renewable energy is that countries like the United Kingdom, Iceland, Albania and Paraguay are smaller in comparison to the United States and China.
