The industry's downturn, triggered by the Covid-19 pandemic in March, has yet again invited close scrutiny of the U.S. shale industry. Prior to the turn of events, shale was seen giving American hydrocarbon production a position of market superiority. ow.ly/uYiy30r1RX2

The Democratic presidential nominee wants to pick someone who is like him (or at least the way he saw himself as vice president): loyal, trusted, experienced, apolitical, someone with whom he will bond. ow.ly/zGaI30r15zK
Biden’s grid plan is ambitious. But is it plausible? ow.ly/9m9730r0Zxn
Doubtless if alt-right activists had occupied city blocks in Seattle or tried to firebomb a federal courthouse in Portland, we'd be in for feverish wall-to-wall media coverage, engulfed in a national conversation about the perils of right-wing radicalism. ow.ly/wYb730r0r9z

How much are you willing to spend to save the earth? How about an extra 89 cents per gallon? That’s about how much a nationwide carbon tax would cost every time you stop for a gasoline fill up. How well will you to a hypothetical Biden administration? ow.ly/ParM30qZMPc
The key elements of Biden's plan to “build a modern, sustainable infrastructure and an equitable clean energy future” will most likely build very little. But it sounds really good, right? ow.ly/NQeB30qZwe9
In this boycott colonialism isn't the target -- civility is. Absent an election, the left can't remove Trump, so the goal is to isolate him by flogging potential friends. Unanue is the rare American CEO who did not cave to the social-media mob. ow.ly/SkNL30qZkO0
If finalized, the PRC would gain massive influence in this geopolitically critical region, and simultaneously throw a lifeline to the embattled Mullah Regime. ow.ly/snPF30qZegn
As government leaders worldwide increasingly announce official policies on the platform and the public uses it as a de facto news aggregator, the recent episode offers lessons about the dangers of trusting one company with so much responsibility. ow.ly/ThQh30qZ2Gu
COVID-19 lockdowns set in motion a permanent move of office work to employees' homes, piecework could become the norm in the white-collar world. 40% of U.S. jobs can be done entirely from home, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research. ow.ly/Yw8H30qYS5i
The consensus of our China Watcher roundtable conversation: Full decoupling is a fantasy, and the probability of it happening is zero percent. However, even the process of partial decoupling will lead to major changes in the way all of us live our lives. ow.ly/RBsp30qYNRg
The biggest problem is that most energy policies are not designed by experts, but by politicians who respond to a mix of ideology and special interests. Republicans want free markets and support for corporations, Democrats want regulation and union jobs. ow.ly/Cme630qYzrF
