Clean Energy Exploitations: Helping Citizens Understand the Environmental and Humanity Abuses That Support Clean Energy by Ronald Stein, Todd Royal Americaoutloud.news/author/ronald-stein-p-e https://www.amazon.com/Clean-Energy-Exploitations-Understand-Environmental/dp/1665704977 The global focus on reducing emissions must be ethical instead of supporting environmental degradation. The book Clean Energy Exploitations - Helping citizens understand the environmental and humanity abuses that support 'clean' energy" is a Nominee for the 2022 Pulitzer Prize competition in the General Nonfiction category. Pulitzer Prize Winners and Finalists will be announced in April 2022. They also emphasize the global nature of the problem, noting that the United States of America could cease to exist and we'd see environmental problems get worse. In this book, they answer questions such as: Would the Green New Deal cut worldwide emissions? What toll is energy racism and inequality taking on the world? How effective are renewable forms of energy in meeting our needs? Whose duty is it to reduce harmful pollution? Green advocates often say they support sustainable and ethical coffee, sneakers, handbags, and diamonds-and they claim they won't tolerate unsafe conditions. But when it comes to green energy and battery energy storage systems for electrical grids and electric vehicles, the authors say it is a different story.

Show notes

Sam's Place: The Tale of a Small Town Cafe by Randy L. Quinn https://www.amazon.com/Sams-Place-Tale-Small-Town/dp/B0DZC78VMM Sam’s Place tells the story of a small-town restaurant and its owner, Sam Davenport. We are invited into the lives of the people who live in Elkader, people who occupy roles familiar to anyone who has lived in a small town. The story is about the restaurant, and how the people who frequent it care for each other over several decades, serving as a model for the best life possible in every American community. About the Author Randy L. Quinn currently lives in El Dorado, Kansas, a much larger town than the setting for his most recent book, Elkader, Iowa. After serving as the pastor of several small-town United Methodist churches, he and his wife Ronda chose to live in El Dorado largely because it had a small-town feel. Randy grew up in military towns along the coast, following his father’s assignments in the US Navy. He graduated from high school in Oak Harbor, Washington, and earned his first degree at the University of Washington in Seattle. Having lived in several small towns, Quinn began to recognize common traits among them, almost as if the same people lived in each town but with different names. While he did not grow up in a small town, he learned to appreciate the values learned in these communities and the powerful pull they have to draw people back after they leave. When he retired, Quinn began writing for his personal enjoyment. Aside from writing, he follows the lives of his four children, seven grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren while keeping an active role in his church and community.

Having worked with Andy in the institutional investment industry for over thirty years, it is clear to me that he places his clients’ interests ahead of his own. Sadly, this is rather rare. As Andy suggests, ask the hard questions, demand straightforward answers, and use these to evaluate your advisor’s and their results. Beware those who obfuscate and bamboozle.

Period.” –Mitchell Little, Managing Member Coronado Investments LLC “I had the honor of working for Andy at his investment advisory firm for several years. His unwavering commitment to daily diligence, thoughtful guidance, and genuine care for clients has left a lasting impression on me. Thanks to Andrew, I discovered my path to wise investment management, and I am confident that others reading his book will find the same clarity and gain the confidence they need. Andrew’s insights empower readers to identify what truly matters when choosing an advisor – ensuring added value to their portfolios and not falling for the impressions of personalities and big names. As Andrew wisely points out, it is time for Wealth Management advisory services to undergo a transformative change.” –Asta Galinyte, Venture Partner at VU Venture Partners and former colleague at Newport Capital Advisers LLC “Andy’s life experiences make him the ideal person to eliminate your investment anxiety.
