		<description><![CDATA[As oil from the destroyed rig in the Gulf of Mexico continues to spill into the water, creating an oil slick the size of Delaware, there’s no doubt that the damages are going to be extremely high – both financially and environmentally. British Petroleum (NYSE: BP), who leased the rig that exploded, has stated that the cleanup efforts are costing $6 million per day. Estimates for the total cost of the cleanup have ranged from $1 billion to $7 billion. And the cost to the fishing industry could be as much as $2.5 billion. Florida tourism could suffer to the tune of $3 billion. Eventually, the companies responsible for the disaster and their insurance companies will pay the price, too. While BP has said it will pay all cleanup costs ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At last year’s climate summit in Copenhagen, the United States did a lot of finger pointing at China. For that matter, China did a lot of pointing right back at the U.S. Both seemed bound and determined to blame the other for the summit’s failure. But while the Obama administration talks a good talk about green technology, China actually does something about it. A recent Bloomberg New Energy Finance report shows China spent $34.6 billion on renewable energy in 2009. That works out to over $94.7 million per day, nearly twice what the U.S. did. More over, Bloomberg didn’t include government spending in that story. It covered private investment in renewable energy projects. And it detailed money raised in stock offerings, venture capital and private equity deals by companies within ]]></description>

Instead of lighting up living rooms across America, the trusty incandescent light bulb will have a new home in the Smithsonian. Right next to Alexander Graham Bell’s original telephone and Marconi’s radio. After December 31, 2011, the federal ban on the 100-watt incandescent light bulb will take effect. Two years after that, the 60-watt and 40-watt versions will disappear from stores, too. And the remarkable thing? A massive 82% of Americans are totally unaware that this will happen. So what’s the deal here? In short, it’s all about energy efficiency… Thanks, For The Light Bulbs Edison… But We Need to Do Better When it comes to the energy sector – specifically, increasing our ]]></description>

Dynegy expects total investment to be approximately $1 billion. Work has been completed at Dynegy’s five out of eight coal-fired units in Illinois. Work on Dynegy&#8217;s biggest plant, the Baldwin Energy Complex in southwest Illinois, is expected to conclude by 2013. Combined with the company&#8217;s switch to low-sulfur coal, Dynegy coal-fired plants in Illinois are expected to cut emissions of nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide and mercury by about 90%. Dynegy’s low-cost, well-operated power generation portfolio spreads across seven U.S. states is a diverse mix of coal, oil and natural gas. Its generating capacity is also located across seven U.S. states with 43% of the company’s portfolio ]]></description>

The company expects the new technology to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the production of STYROFOAM™ brand insulation at all of its converted production facilities in that region. Dow stated that its iconic Blue™ STYROFOAM™ insulation helps conserve energy and reduce carbon dioxide emissions from homes and buildings. Currently, the emissions from buildings and homes account for more than 40% of all greenhouse gas emissions.

As the first step, Arch purchased 143,885 shares of ADA for $1.0 million. The remaining $2.0 million of Arch’s investment is a consideration for an exclusive license to use ADA’s technology to reduce emissions for Arch-mined coal to produce electricity. The license is currently being negotiated to define the royalty structure and is expected to be finalized next month. Arch has been a significant shareholder in ADA since it invested $1.3 million in the Littleton, Colorado-based company in 2003, when it was spun off as a separate public entity from Earth Sciences Inc.

		<description><![CDATA[As the old sixteenth-century saying goes, “You can’t make a silk purse from a sow’s ear.” Translation: Sometimes, you can dress something up as much as you want, but it doesn’t change what it really is. Or in the case of biofuel, what it isn’t. And to coin a more recent adage, “putting lipstick on a pig” is exactly what biofuel advocates continue to do. I’m interested in all forms of energy – fossil fuels, renewables, nuclear, etc. And like most Americans, it’s my wish to see us weaned off Middle Eastern oil in my lifetime. For example, in the following ways… By moving towards renewable energy resources like wind, solar and geothermal. Nuclear fuel is also a viable way to gain greater energy independence – despite the issue of how to ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Investors like to gravitate to investment themes because they are easy to understand, tend to last for longer than a few months, and can deliver solid returns. Longer-term investment themes could range from aging of the population, converting to clean energy, or using mobile communications devices. The key is to identify a trend, outline an investment theme for that trend, and then look for companies that are profiting from that trend. One trend that stick out is the increased use of mobile devices for more than just talking. Everywhere you look people are texting, instant messaging, and surfing the web on their cell phones, smart phones, net books, and laptops. This trend toward mobile communications will continue to become a bigger part of people&#8217;s lives as more people want to ]]></description>
