Note to Biden on the Russian energy weapon

Jerome a Paris, Daily Kos

Russian behavior is driven to a large extent by the personal strategies and interests of a few individuals at the very top. There is no overarching geopolitical plan, but a lot of political infighting and short term asset-grabbing strategies. That may be even more worrying in itself than purposeful strategies to use the "energy weapon", but the motivations are different. It is true however that the global energy situation allows Russia to be a lot more assertive, or even brutal, on the international stage, and there's little that can be done about that ... [There is something that] Europe can actually do: it controls its own demand, and should focus its efforts on that.

US natural gas: the role of unconventional gas

Gail Tverberg, The Oil Drum

US natural gas production has been flat for a number of years. We keep hearing that US production is expected to begin declining sometime in the next few years, but it doesn't seem to happen. While it is not obvious from most published data, the reason production remains level is because unconventional gas production has been rising.

Compressed gas hits the metals markets

David DuByne, Energy Bulletin

All societies on earth face a Catch 22. We need to use fossil fuels to extract and manufacture resources to allow a transition to a liquefied natural gas infrastructure. Then our societies will have to use the remaining natural gas reserves to exploit even more minerals and commodities to transition to electric infrastructure.
