In a rambling, often incoherent speech, to his die-hard supporters in Phoenix on Tuesday night, President Trump boldly predicted that “clean coal” was back.

"I call them ‘the expendables'. These men were treated like collateral damage, and they fell between the cracks in this toxic place.”

As Trump launches "Energy Week", a new survey finds that well over two thirds of teenagers believe renewables are the fuels of their generation, whereas oil and gas are their parents' fuel.

Trump's energy week and health care bill have a lot in common. Both would redistribute wealth up from ordinary Americans to the wealthiest. Both would make people sick. Both would cost lives.

In a huge industry giveaway, Trump’s Department of Interior budget increases funding for oil, gas, and coal expansion by more than $34 million – and slashes renewable energy by at least $15 million.

The myth that opening up more public lands and waters for fossil fuel production will result in a windfall for America is dead wrong. The only windfall from this production is enjoyed by oil, gas, and coal executives.

April 21 2017, will go down as a significant day in the dying days of the fossil fuel era. For the first time since the renewable revolution in 1882, Britain went a full day without using dirty coal to generate electricity.

Like the misguided Medieval King Canute, who believed he could hold back the incoming tide, Trump yesterday tried to reign back President Obama’s climate legacy and derail the "unstoppable" clean energy transition, by denying climate science and pledging his allegiance to fossil fuels, notably coal.

People power stopped Keystone XL in its tracks. Now we're seeing human resistance to fossil fuel projects spreading rapidly around the globe.
