The government has argued that a subsidy program it launched to lower energy-intensive industries will justify cuts to the climate and transformation fund.
‘American homeowners deserve to know’
A new climate-related metric advanced by a company linked to private equity firms is quietly subverting the U.S. housing market, a new report claims. Major online real estate platforms such as Zillow, Relator.com, Homes.com and Redfin all have featured predictive climate-risk scores, according to a July report from the American Energy Institute and Consumers’ Research first shared with the Daily Caller News Foundation. The scores, developed by private company First Street, can often directly contrast with the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) official flood maps and determinations. “For most American families, a home is their single largest financial asset and the primary vehicle for building generational wealth,”…Open

A new study has suggested over 2,500 people across England and Wales died during unprecedented heatwaves throughout May and June, underscoring the risks posed by extreme heat and the need for air conditioning. PULSE POINTS WHAT HAPPENED: A new study has suggested that almost 3,000 people have died in England and Wales due to recent heatwaves. DETAIL: According to a new study conducted by Imperial College London, the Met Office, and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, approximately 2,700 people may have died from heat-related causes during the heatwaves in England and Wales throughout May and June. Statistics for the United Kingdom’s other Home Nations, Scotland and Northern Ireland, would likely drive the estimate…Open
AI:A new study conducted by Imperial College London, the Met Office, and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine indicates that approximately 2,700 people died from heat-related causes across England and Wales during May and June 2026. The report highlights that extreme temperatures place severe strain on the cardiovascular system, with June alone accounting for roughly 2,200 deaths. These fatalities underscore a growing vulnerability in European nations that lack widespread air conditioning, as net-zero mandates continue to discourage the installation of cooling units. While only about 20 percent of European households utilize AC compared to approximately 90 percent of U.S. households, officials in cities like Paris have…Open
While the full toll will take months to calculate, death statistics already look substantial compared with historical averages.
A new analysis by Always On Energy Research and the Institute for Energy Research concludes that renewable energy mandates and net-zero policies have contributed to higher electricity prices in states that adopted them, while states with fewer climate-related mandates generally have lower electricity costs. The analysis examined electricity pricing data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration […] The post Analysis: Higher Electricity Rates in Blue States Linked to Renewable Energy Policies appeared first on StoneZone .
A new analysis by Always On Energy Research and the Institute for Energy Research concludes that renewable energy mandates and net-zero policies have contributed to higher electricity prices in states that adopted them, while states with fewer climate-related mandates generally have lower electricity costs. The analysis examined electricity pricing data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration and found that most states with electricity rates above the national average voted for the Democratic presidential nominee in the 2020 and 2024 elections. According to the report, 86 percent of states with above-average electricity prices supported the Democratic nominee in both elections. By comparison, 80 percent of the 10 states with…Open

UK Special Coverage The Race to Be the Next UK Chancellor For the prospective prime minister, each candidate has drawbacks. UK Special Coverage The relationship between the prime minister and the chancellor is the most important in British politics. In short, they have to get on, or the government doesn’t. History is littered with examples of administrations that became dysfunctional because the first lord of the Treasury—to give the prime minister his full title—and the chancellor of the Exchequer did not see eye to eye. Most recently, when Tony Blair and Gordon Brown fell out in 2005 over the Labour succession, the…Open
