Here is this week’s Climate Watch 01.21.26
Story 1 — U.S. lawmakers push to restore energy reliability
Congressional leaders are advancing legislation aimed at speeding approvals for oil, gas, and pipeline projects. Supporters say the effort restores sound energy policy after years of regulatory delays that raised prices and weakened grid reliability.
Story 2 — EU industry warns climate rules are driving manufacturing out
European manufacturers are warning lawmakers that strict climate regulations are forcing energy-intensive industries to relocate overseas. Business groups say high power costs and compliance burdens are undermining competitiveness and threatening jobs.
Story 3 — UK reconsiders energy transition after affordability backlash
British officials are facing mounting pressure to revisit green energy mandates as households and businesses struggle with rising electricity bills. Critics argue reliable fossil fuel generation remains essential to stabilize prices and prevent shortages.
Story 4 — Strong earthquake jolts Pacific seismic zone
A powerful earthquake struck along a major Pacific fault line this week. Scientists say the event is consistent with natural tectonic plate movement and highlights the Earth’s ongoing seismic activity unrelated to climate policy or atmospheric conditions.
Story 5 — Volcano activity increases along active plate boundary
Geologists are monitoring increased volcanic activity in a long-active volcanic region, citing magma movement deep below the surface. Experts emphasize this is normal behavior in tectonically active zones shaped by natural Earth processes.
Story 6 — Global data confirms fossil fuels remain dominant
Latest global energy figures show oil, natural gas, and coal continue to supply the majority of the world’s power. Analysts say the data reinforces the need for realistic energy policies that prioritize reliability, affordability, and economic growth.

[…] In another report, the recent snowstorm that overtook Texas reportedly crashed the state's wind and solar energy generators leading to natural gas, coal, and nuclear, providing most of the state's electricity. Wind, solar, and batteries fell short from briefly supplying 63 percent of generation to 7 percent with roughly, within roughly 48 hours. At a White House press conference, Energy Secretary Wright credited coal for 24 percent of U .S. power and natural gas for 43 percent during peak winter demand, while solar and wind together supplied 14 percent underscoring fossil fuels role in reliability.
