In episode 5 we have an introductory essay on the U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, or FERC, and their opponents in the group Beyond Extreme Energy (written February 2020). I'll have some guests from Beyond Extreme Energy on the podcast in a few weeks time to discuss what's been happening recently at FERC and their campaign to have it replaced with a Federal Renewable Energy Commission, or FREC. https://beyondextremeenergy.org/
Also included is the Broken Planet headlines (with news on recent science, coal, electricity, Brazil, the EU, France, aviation, Germany and an extended story on pipeline fights in the U.S).
