The Real Cost of Clinging to Fossil Fuels
13 Oct 2025 | 
The Las Vegas Review-Journal editorial warns of rising costs from clean energy, but critics argue renewables are now cheaper than fossil fuels. Infrastructure upgrades and legacy fuel contracts - not solar or wind - drive higher bills. Fossil fuels carry hidden costs like pollution and health impacts. Clean energy investments are transitional and necessary. The real challenge is managing the shift, not avoiding it. Clinging to fossil fuels is costlier long-term.
Harnessing the Wind: Rotor Sails on Scandinavian Ferries
13 Oct 2025 | 
Scandlines ferries use rotor sails - spinning cylinders that harness the Magnus effect to generate lift and reduce fuel use. Most effective in crosswinds, the rotors spin to face the wind and produce forward thrust. Modern versions use lightweight composites and electric motors powered by hybrid systems. Though ineffective in headwinds, they switch to engine power, avoiding stall. Fuel savings reach up to 20%, aiding Scandlines' goal of emission-free operations by 2040.

Nevada's Esmeralda 7 solar project was canceled amid ecological concerns and political pushback. Conservationists opposed its scale and impact on desert wildlife and cultural sites. The Trump administration halted its review, citing regulatory burdens. Though 12 million acres are solar-designated, only 20,000 are developed.
