Much to my surprise, the one single portrait I was most taken with was that of Jimmy Carter. I recall its being a full-length portrait and what knocked me out was how it radiated selfless character, integrity and dignity.
As we reflect on the life and legacy of President Jimmy Carter and compare it to the life and legacy of our incoming President Donald Trump, one can only wonder how American society has devolved to such a low level.
Cheers to the coalition of environmental groups and the California Republicans for suing the California Air Resources Board for approving the latest standard for the Low Carbon Fuel Standard Program. The program was designed to lower emissions of carbon dioxide from fossil-fuel gasoline by replacing fossil-fuel gasoline with biofuel.
The production of biofuels results in emissions elsewhere. The net effect is likely to be neutral or increased emissions. The latest plan could add 47 cents a gallon to the price of gasoline.
