| Energy Realism looked at the problems with the International Energy Agency, an incredibly important energy outfit that has now jumped-the-shark. Tilak Doshi got us started last week: Singapore’s partnership with IEA Paris may well be a regrettable decision. Ironically, its Southeast Asian neighbors are more likely to emulate Singapore’s historic “pragmatism” and decide their own destinies along Adam Smith’s path of free markets and human flourishing – the one described by IEA London. Anne Bradbury follows this up.

And as always, David Holt fills-in with explaining once again just how valuable low cost and reliable energy really is. Indeed, “going green” is going to cost us a lot of green.
