Pricing Fertilizer Emissions Cuts Climate Pollution Without Making Food Expensive
Pricing fertilizer emissions sounds like a recipe for more expensive food, but when the numbers are worked carefully, it turns out to be a policy that cuts emissions sharply while barely moving grocery prices. The reason is simple and counterintuitive. Fertilizer is a large share of farm costs and an … [continued]

Pressurized Steel, Missing Demand: Germany’s Hydrogen Backbone In Energy Flows
The German hydrogen backbone without customers or suppliers—a pipeline from nowhere to nowhere—is real steel in the ground, pressurized and defended as inevitable, yet it is being built for an energy system that does not need it. That claim sounds provocative until the energy flows are laid out in full. … [continued]

Germany’s Hydrogen Backbone & the Long Shadow of Russian Gas
Germany’s newly pressurized hydrogen backbone segment with no suppliers and no customers is often described as a clean break from the past, a necessary early investment in a future hydrogen economy. The steel tells a different story. The route, diameter, age, and economics of the pipeline point back to Russian … [continued]
