California's broken green dream

Californian politicians are loud and proud as self-appointed leaders of clean energy. They just forget to add that, officially, they fail to take CO2 emissions into account when importing substantial electricity from other states. Truth be told, the Golden State generously pays its neighbors to do the dirty job for it. Small wonder that Californians scream every time they get their energy bills. They should hold the politicians' feet to the fire on the abovesaid accounting issue.

Money can't buy love---or truth. Green dreamers are bound to be in for a rude awakening.
