Associated Press: Hillary Rodham Clinton is voicing opposition to President Barack Obama's authorization for oil drilling in the Alaska Arctic and his delays on Keystone XL, in some of the clearest signs of the Democratic front-runner distancing herself from the president. Having agreed with him on most issues so far in her 2016 race, Clinton edged to Obama's left on climate change on Tuesday. In the course of a few hours, she announced her disapproval of his move to allow Royal Dutch Shell to drill in the Arctic...

President Obama Gives Shell Final Approval to Drill in the Arctic
2015-08-17 23:20:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
EcoWatch: Yesterday, President Obama said climate change puts Alaska at the "front lines of one of the greatest challenges we face this century," and yet today he approved Shells plans to drill for oil in the Alaskan Arctic. The President cannot have it both ways. Announcing a tour of Alaska to highlight climate change the day before giving Shell the final approval to drill in the Arctic ocean is deeply hypocritical. This approval means the Obama administration is leaving the fate of the Arctic up to Shell...

Coal companies have been scorched under Obama
2015-08-04 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
CNN: It's a terrible time to be in the coal business. Companies have struggled for five years in an environment of strict regulation and low prices, along with a host of poorly-timed mergers. Alpha Natural Resources (ANRZ) filed for bankruptcy on Monday, becoming the latest coal company to succumb to the difficult environment. Life is about to get even tougher as President Obama -- never a friend of the coal industry -- rolls out new rules aimed at America's coal-burning power plants' greenhouse...
