by Yoshihiro Muronaka In August 2025, Japanese media revealed that Mitsubishi Corporation was preparing to withdraw from three offshore wind projects off the coasts of Chiba and Akita prefectures. In 2021, Mitsubishi had won these sites with remarkably low bids of 8-11 cents/kilowatt-hour (kWh), hailed as proof of Japan’s corporate strength and renewable ambition. But reality was harsh. Costs for … Read more The post Japan’s Green Energy Failures Serve as a Warning to the US: Don’t Fa...| CO2 Coalition
By Vijay Jayaraj We were promised a “green” utopia free of fossil fuels, powered by sunshine and breezes.

Although the slide of Canada’s universities into wokism is well-known, few who don’t spend their days on-campus probably grasp just how far it has gone. Administrators chase academic respectability through “performative inclusivity” – at the expense of educational standards and even students’ health. One Toronto resident watched her beloved institution devolve deep into ideological rebranding with an expensive “campus greening”, a contrived “Indigenous landscape” and donor...| C2C Journal

By Vijay Jayaraj In July, a bone-chilling cold wave swept across South America, plunging nations like Argentina, Chile, and Uruguay into an energy crisis that laid bare the fragility of their power systems. Record-low temperatures, driven by an Antarctic air mass, pushed electricity grids to the brink, forced governments to ration gas, and left thousands without power for over a … Read more| CO2 Coalition
By Vijay Jayaraj In the modern climate debate, emotion and partisan allegiance replace critical thinking to smear carbon dioxide (CO2) as a dangerous pollutant. Well-crafted green advocacies steal the spotlight, while reason languishes in the shadows of medieval-style witch hunts. The reality, however, is seen in places like the dense tropical forests of Indonesia’s many verdant islands. Among them are … Read more| CO2 Coalition
by Lars Schernikau We are constantly told that the future of energy will be clean, green, and battery powered. Wind and solar will produce the power, and batteries will store it. Simple, right?
