The Alliance for Wise Energy Decisions
(AWED) is an informal coalition of individuals and organizations interested in improving
national, state, and local energy and environmental policies. Our premise is that
technical matters like these should be addressed by using Real Science (please consult
WiseEnergy.org
for more information).

A key element of AWED’s efforts is public
education. Towards that end, every three weeks we put together a newsletter to balance
what is found in the mainstream media about energy and the environment. We appreciate
MasterResource for their assistance in publishing this information.
