| Energy Realism looked at how climate activists are scare-mongering us into needless action on a needless problem. Daniel Turner got us started last week: no longer focused on reliable and affordable energy, FERC is becoming far too activist for our own good. Much of the blame rests with former FERC Commissioner Richard Glick. He was political to his core, even though he chaired an independent agency that is supposed to be technical, objective, and even-handed.
