California Should Prioritize Electric Vehicle Incentives, Not Biofuel Subsidies On March 13, the Department of Energy used the expanding U.S. war in Iran as an excuse to override California’s environmental laws and force resumption of oil production along the Santa Barbara coast. Over the strong objections of state and local officials, crude oil is now flowing through a pipeline that ruptured in 2015, fouling beaches and causing millions of dollars of environmental damage. The new order commanding the that the pipeline be reopened is the Trump Administration’s boldest move yet to operationalize Executive Order 14260, which unabashedly seeks to crush state climate and renewable energy policies in favor of fossil fuel production. This latest development makes it clearer than ever that California should redouble its efforts to electrify the state’s transportation sector. A potential path forward is to redirect subsidies that currently flow to biofuel producers and methane digesters under the state’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard. Repurposing these LCFS credits to provide tax incentives for EV purchase and infrastructure expansion could help California achieve its looming zero-emission vehicle targets. Equally important, a decarbonized vehicle fleet would help protect Californians from the kind of global oil shock we are experiencing today and from the human health and ecological harms associated...

Energy security in a world of wars: Why biofuels matter more than ever The escalating conflict between Iran, Israel, and the United States in West Asia has once again forced the world to confront a hard truth — energy security is inseparable from national and global security. What began as a prolonged cycle of retaliatory strikes, proxy warfare, and nuclear tensions crystallised into a direct military confrontation that sent shockwaves far beyond the region’s borders. The implications for global energy markets were immediate and severe. West Asia accounts for roughly one-third of the world’s crude oil production and an even larger share of global oil trade flows. With military activity intensifying near critical maritime chokepoints, the world’s most strategically vital waterway came under direct threat. The Strait of Hormuz — a narrow channel between Iran and Oman — is the passage through which approximately 20-21 million barrels of oil transit every single day, representing nearly 20 per cent of global oil consumption. Even partial disruptions to shipping lanes caused war-risk insurance premiums on oil tankers to spike dramatically, prompting major shipping companies to reroute or suspend Gulf operations and triggering panic buying across energy markets. The damage extended well beyond the Strait itself. In early March 2026, Saudi Arabia’s Ras Tanura refinery —...

A hot wex body slanging massive cock

CW: Wex "Borrows" a massive cock. (also the vore idk)

Wex is a little robot OC that made to support redshirt. He is a autonomous robot with biofuel requirements and the ability to steal bodies

This Tiny Pond Organism Rearranges Light to Survive in the Shadows By packing ordinary chlorophyll into tightly coupled clusters, a freshwater alga extends photosynthesis into far-red light, revealing a structural workaround to one of biology’s energy limits.

Algae that reconfigures their chlorophyll to collect shaded light at the weakest wavelength.

Biofuel makers say they can boost Washington's climate goals and farmers Biofuel makers are trying to impress upon the Washington Department of Ecology how their products can help the state meet its climate goals and, in some cases, benefit farmers. Bayer Crop Science, ethanol giant POET and Neste are among the companies weighing in as the state raises its low-carbon fuel standard. Bayer touts oilseeds as feedstock for low-carbon fuels. POET promotes corn ethanol as reliable. Finnish company Neste, the world’s largest producer of renewable diesel, says its goal is to supply products to achieve Washington’s climate aspirations. “We are in the business of combating climate change by producing effective climate solutions,” the company said in recent comments to Ecology. Washington lawmakers adopted the low-carbon fuel standard to reduce greenhouse gases released in producing transportation fuels. Originally, lawmakers mandated a 20% reduction by 2038. Last year, they moved the goal to 45%. The higher bar presumably will increase demand for biofuels. The program is still in its early days, requiring only a 7% reduction this year in carbon emissions. In 2024, the standard cut emissions by 2.8 million tons and added less than a penny to the cost of fuel, according to Ecology. The department has not studied how ramping up...
