Post Carbon Fellow Richard Heinberg was quoted in this article about the new energy documentary Dear President Obama narrated by Mark Ruffalo.

From the article:

As the film makes clear, Obama’s climate rhetoric is at loggerheads with his all-of-the-above energy policy.

“He’s trying to have it both ways,” Richard Heinberg, senior fellow at the Post Carbon Institute and author of Afterburn: Society Beyond Fossil Fuels, says in the film. “Please the oil and gas industry, lower energy prices by producing more oil and gas. But on the other hand, regulate the coal industry to reduce emissions. It’s not that simple.”
