2018 Energy & Environmental Newsletters

2018 Energy & Environmental Newsletters (1600± Studies, Reports & Articles on Energy, Environment, Education, etc.)

The Alliance for Wise Energy Decisions (AWED) is an informal coalition of individuals and organizations interested in improving national, state, and local energy and environmental policies, world-wide. Our premise is that technical matters (like climate change, our energy options, etc.) should be addressed by using Real Science. (Please see WiseEnergy.org for more information).

A key element of AWED’s efforts is public education. Towards that end, every 2-4 weeks we put together a Newsletter to try to balance what is found in the mainstream media about Energy and Environmental issues. (More recently we have also included articles about Science and Education.) We appreciate MasterResource for their assistance in publishing the Newsletters.

Note 1: The Newsletters are intended to complement what’s on our website: WiseEnergy.org.

Note 2: For links to other excellent sources of articles on Energy and Environmental matters please see the “Current News” page on our website.

Note 3: The purpose of this extensive compilation is to make it easier to search for pertinent studies, reports and articles on a speciﬁc topic (e.g. wind energy interference with the military). It is advisable to try multiple search words — e.g. military, army, navy, etc. (Search terms are case insensitive over this HTML document.)

Note 4: We originally veriﬁed that all the links below worked. — but over time these can change. If you ﬁnd any errors, please email John Droz [aaprjohn at northnet dot org] and we will try to make corrections. This is Rev: 1-1-20. ------
