ROOTED WINGS

You need to read through the end of this.

What a guy!  On the one hand, he helps write law.  On the other, advises how to break those same laws.  What surprises me, though, he's a democrat! :whistle:

Climate Change / Top 10 lobbying spenders on energy, the environment

Top 10 lobbying spenders on energy, the environment
By Timothy Cama | 01/27/2023 06:42 AM EST

The Inflation Reduction Act helped drive lobbying spending increases.
 

This story was updated at 9:30 a.m. EST.

The biggest climate bill in U.S. history helped fuel heavy lobbying from chemical, oil and electric utility companies.

Records disclosed to Congress in recent days showed that the American Chemistry Council came out on top, spending $19.8 million. That’s a 19 percent increase over 2021.
 

The combined spending of three petroleum interests far outpaced that figure, however. Occidental Petroleum Corp., ConocoPhillips Co. and Exxon Mobil Corp. combined for a whopping $27.2 million in spending in 2022, a 23 percent increase over 2021.

It was a busy year for many industries, headlined by the Inflation Reduction Act, which includes $369 billion in climate change and energy spending.

I wonder if there are more up-to-date figures available.

The average weight of people in the United States and North America as a whole is higher than any other region in the world.

In 2012, BMC Public Health reported the following average weights by region. The averages were calculated using data from 2005, and relied on combined statistics for men and women:

    North America: 177.9 pounds
    Oceania, including Australia: 163.4 pounds
    Europe: 156.1 pounds
    Latin America/Caribbean: 149.7 pounds
    Africa: 133.8 pounds
    Asia: 127.2 pounds

The world average for an adult’s weight is 136.7 pounds.  ...

Our most recent trips to Europe were in 2017 and 2018, and we saw quite a few overweight locals in Germany, France and UK.

WARSAW, May 10 (Reuters) – Thousands of protesters marched through the streets of the Polish capital Warsaw on Friday to show their opposition to European Union environmental regulations that farmers say are driving them out of business.


Farmers were joined by representatives of other branches of the Solidarity trade union, which organised the protest, such as miners and workers from the automotive sector.
Farmers in Poland and elsewhere in the bloc have been protesting in recent months, opens new tab against cheap food imports from Ukraine and restrictions placed on them by the EU’s Green Deal to tackle climate change.

In a sea of red and white Polish flags and Solidarity banners, the protesters, many wearing yellow high-visibility vests, brandished placards with slogans like “Down with the Green Deal, Down with the European Union” and “Green Poison”.
