Note 1: We recommend reading the Newsletter on your computer, not your
phone, as some documents (e.g. PDFs) are much easier to read on a large
computer screen… We’ve tried to use common fonts, etc. to minimize
display issues.
Note 2: Originally this was a monthly Newsletter. However, as pertinent material proliferated, it has been issued more frequently. As a guideline, once we collect a hundred worthwhile articles, a new Newsletter will
be issued on the following Monday. Recently this has resulted in a once
every three weeks frequency — and occasionally once every two weeks.
Note 3: To accommodate numerous requests received about prior articles, we’ve put together detailed archives — where you can search by year, or over the ten+ years of the Newsletter.
Note 4: Our
intention is to put some balance into what most people see from the
mainstream media about energy, environmental and education issues… If
you want to know our perspective on current events, please read the Big Picture New Year/New Decade commentary.
Note 6: Please pass the Newsletter on
to open-minded citizens, and link to it on your social media sites. If
there are others who you think would benefit from being on our Energy & Environmental email list, please let me know. If at any time you'd like to be taken off this free distribution, simply send me an email saying that.
