ABOUT THIS EPISODE
The passage of the Inflation Reduction Act in August 2022 seemed like a green light for long-awaited clean energy initiatives. But as James Coleman — an energy law professor at SMU Dallas points out — then reality set in. The $400 Billion to $1.2 Trillion set aside for our green energy dreams was stalled by cumbersome permitting processes to build power line infrastructure. It may take 10 to 15 years to get things up and running. Professor Coleman supplies sobering insights on the frustrations EVs face, and other energy enigmas: like how will we ever develop electrical power storage lasting more than 30 minutes? There's reason for optimism because of energy efforts in Texas and elsewhere in the country.

One of the tragic ironies that domestic violence victims face is that they sometimes get arrested and even jailed during the very episode wherein they were abused. Case in point is a Texas woman who was date raped, abandoned in the driveway of a DFW home where she was later arrested for DWI and i…
