I have tirelessly spent the last week or so trying not to write a post which either a) reflects on last year or b) provides some sort of outlook for 2012. This has left me considering the here and now, and the USA.
Swinging the spotlight back onto energy (as is inevitable here on the burrito), I realized there is a lot to be thankful for in the US. Despite some obvious shortfalls in the energy landscape (reliance on fossil fuels, foreign energy dependence, etc) I believe the US is moving in the right direction. So henceforth I present some random points as to why the US is great, from both an energy perspective, and from the perspective of a Brit.
