		<description><![CDATA[pDo you remember this time last year? As spring turned to summer, energy prices were moving upward. By mid-July 2008, oil prices peaked at $147 per barrel. But as with Gen. Pickett and his famous charge at Gettysburg, that lofty level of $147 was the high-water mark for oil prices./p
pBy August of last year, the price of oil was retreating, and it was a hard slog on the way down. By midwinter, in December 2008 and January 2009, oil prices were in the $30s per barrel - a drop of over 75% within six months. It was a wild ride./p
pNatural gas had a similar rise and fall last year. In July 2008, the NYMEX price for natural gas was around#8230;/p]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[pBrazil is making a national commitment to develop energy resources located far offshore in the South Atlantic. Indeed, no nation has ever advanced such an ambitious plan for long-term comprehensive offshore development. And it’s being bankrolled by China./p
pMuch of Brazil’s South Atlantic development will require emdrilling wells in waters up to two miles deep, through four-five miles of rock beneath the seabed/em. The prize at the end will be oil deposits with reserves estimated in the tens of billions of barrels. With access to this offshore bounty, Brazil expects to take its place among the first ranks of energy-producing nations in the world./p
pBrazil’s state-controlled national oil company (NOC), Petroleo Brasileiro SA (NYSE:a href="http://www.google.com/finance?q=NYSE:PBR"PBR/a) plans to spend over $175 billion in the#8230;/p]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[pLast week, I spent a full day in a seminar on climate change. It was a totally sober and professional seminar, sponsored by a group that specializes in continuing legal education for attorneys. I heard talks by a variety of lawyers, academics and regulators, mostly about how “the train has left the station” on climate change and carbon regulation. And wow… has that train ever steamed out. But did you ever hear the conductor call, “All Aboard?” This is a critical matter and here’s the takeaway point: emWe’re about to see an UTTER TRANSFORMATION of the U.S. economy/em./p
