The KJ Show Episode 112: The Energy Impacts of the Internet

The Internet is a hidden energy hog. On today’s show, our host, Dr. Katherine Johnson, will explain how the effects of Internet users' digital consumption result in the emission of 229 kilograms of carbon dioxide per year.  Moreover,  estimates project that internet use will account for 1.7 billion tons of greenhouse gases per year. But that is just part of the story. While data centers appeal to some jurisdictions, others are pushing back due to their high land requirements and intense energy usage.  Join The KJ Show at 11 a.m. Eastern Wednesday (https://boldbravetv.com/11am-the-kj-show/).

The KJ Show Episode 111: Common Sense Energy Solutions

Common sense is rare these days, especially in government. This week's show highlights how energy policy must balance traditional and renewable energy technologies. However, the best common-sense approach is to embrace energy efficiency first.   American voters also want a common-sense approach to energy policy. However, energy pundits on both sides are still debating whether "All of the Above" includes fossil fuels or natural gas. This discussion is likely to get more heated as we head into 2025.   Join The KJ Show at 11 a.m. Eastern Wednesday (https://boldbravetv.com/11am-the-kj-show/).

The KJ Show #110 - Energy & The Election: Now What?

The election is over, and the results have sent shockwaves across the country, with 50% pleased and 50% devastated. Energy pundits disagree about how the next Trump administration will affect current energy policies. Even though Trump appears to have a mandate to govern, it may not be easy to unwind some of Biden's energy policies, like the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). On today's show, Dr. Katherine Johnson will provide a balanced view of how the election results are likely to affect energy policy in the next four years. And while it will be interesting to watch, the long-term effects of many renewable energy policies will probably be a slowdown, but not a complete shutdown.

The KJ Show- Episode 109: Net Zero Energy Homes: Dream or Reality?

Net-zero-energy homes are becoming more popular worldwide. It's estimated that by 2028, Europe will have around 2.4 million net-zero-carbon buildings. While the public sector and real estate developers are leading the way, this doesn't mean private owners should lose out. These homes are also generating customer interest, as one net zero home community in Florida survived the two most recent hurricanes due to their storm protection and resiliency features. Today's episode explores the pros and cons that net zero homes offer residents. Join The KJ Show at 11 a.m. Eastern Wednesday (Watch More on Youtube).
