The US is risking ceding global market share of clean energy to China, permanently.New tariffs, put in place one day then removed the next. Rising costs for everything along the supply chain. The US clean energy sector is navigating one of its most unpredictable phases yet. From solar to storage, how are developers and policymakers reacting to renewed trade tensions and their impact on the energy transition? “This isn't just about clean energy deployment. It's about whether the US will have a seat at the table in the future global energy economy,” says Leslie Abrahams, Deputy Director of the Energy Security and Climate Change Program at CSIS – the Center for Strategic & International Studies. She joins host Sylvia Leyva Martinez, a principal analyst covering global energy markets at Wood Mackenzie, to find out what the outlook is for US energy innovation. Escalating tariff policy is shaking investor confidence, altering supply chains, and putting the power firmly with China.Plus, in the second half of the show, Sylvia gets the developer perspective, from Joao Barreto, who is CEO of EDP Renewables' distributed generation business in North America. He explains how one of the world's largest clean energy developers is mitigating risk, adjusting their strategy, and building trust with manufacturers and offtakers amid unprecedented uncertainty.Sylvia, Leslie and Joao discuss:Why US$8 billion in clean energy projects were cancelled in Q1 2025, and what that signals to the marketHow US tariffs on Chinese batteries are backfiring on domestic manufacturingThe challenge of accelerating R&D while shutting out foreign investmentHow storage and solar developers are hedging their betsWhether the US risks ceding global market share to China permanentlyPower Play was developed by ExxonMobil to shine a light on the accomplishments of remarkable women and the men who uphold the importance of empowering others in the LNG and decarbonization industries. Nominations for the seventh annual Power Play Awards are now open, with four categories available: The Rising Star, The Pioneer, The Ambassador, and The Low Carbon Accelerator.

ExxonMobil wordt Deze week Doorgelicht! Eén van de grootste oliebedrijven ter wereld pompt dagelijks miljoenen vaten olie uit de grond, maar hoe lang dat nog kan wordt steeds meer de vraag. Analist Jim Tehupuring vertelt erover in Deze Week Doorgelicht!
In this week's episode of State of the Arc, we dive into: ExxonMobil's proposed $8.6B plastics plant in Texas and its potential impact on welding jobs. OSHA's intensified enforcement on confined space violations and what it means for welders. The growing trend of welding schools partnering with industries to create direct job pipelines. The surge in welding opportunities within the agricultural and heavy equipment sectors. Plus, we explore NASA's 1991 breakthrough in friction stir welding and its lasting impact on the industry. Stay informed and ahead in the welding world with State of the Arc.
ExxonMobil is één van de grootste oliebedrijven ter wereld met de thuisbasis in de Verenigde Staten. Dat was lang een ultraveilig oord voor de oliereus, maar sinds de dollarkoers gekelderd is en er een wereldwijde handelsoorlog gevoerd wordt, begint het toch een beetje te rommelen. In deze aflevering van Doorgelicht richten journalist Nina van den Dungen en analist Jim Tehupuring de schijnwerper op het Texaanse bedrijf, zodat jij als belegger kan bepalen wat een ExxonMobil-aandeel nou écht waard is!
Today we talk about our lost pop culture with our futurist Thomas Frey, along with the use of AI for education. Mandy goes on a tear about Jake Tapper trying to profit off his own failures, we discuss motorcycle fatalities in Colorado with DJ Summers from the Common Sense Institute and crime being down in Denver and Aurora, plus Boulder suing Exxon Mobil and Suncor.
On today's episode of The Hydrogen Podcast, we explore one of the most consequential moves in global hydrogen markets:
De wonderen zijn de wereld nog niet uit. Sloot Trump gisteren ineens een handelsdeal met de Britten, dit weekend gaat 'ie heel ver voor een deal met de Chinezen. Zo ver zelfs dat 'ie bereid is de tarieven drastisch te verlagen.Ze staan er in China zelf ook van te kijken. Waarom wil Trump zo graag? We bespreken het deze aflevering. Dan hoor je ook waarom China het (ondanks die handelsoorlog) extreem veel exporteert. Sterker nog: de binnenlandse vraag valt nauwelijks terug. Verder vertellen we je over BP. Het aandeel zit in een diep dal en dat zet concurrenten aan het denken. Die zijn allemaal aan het berekenen of zij de Britse oliereus willen overnemen. Shell zegt dat het ze niet waard is, maar is dat ook echt zo? We hebben het ook over de Duitse beurs. Beleggers daar hebben een nieuwe bondskanselier en die zal dit succes vast willen claimen: de DAX-index tikt namelijk een nieuw record aan. En Elon Musk vindt de 260.000 ontslagen die hij bij de Amerikaanse overheid regelde nog niet genoeg. Hij heeft een stukje software ontwikkeld die zijn taken daar kan overnemen. En we blikken terug op de week waarin Jelle eindelijk analisten meekreeg in zijn enthousiasme over Disney. Ook een beursweek waarin Ahold zei geen last te hebben van de handelsoorlog. En die waarin de eerste deal in die oorlog gesloten werd.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kannon Shanmugam is a partner at the law firm Paul Weiss and has argued 39 cases before the Supreme Court, representing clients such as Goldman Sachs, ExxonMobil, Meta, Warner Music, Bank of America, Coinbase, and the NFL, among others. Kannon has also argued more than 150 appeals in courts across the country, including all 13 federal courts of appeals. A longtime Supreme Court reporter said that Kannon has “perhaps the most eloquent and elegant manner … that I've ever seen in my 40 years covering the Court." Legal 500 called Kannon "a brilliant lawyer and tactician, with impeccable judgment and an optimal moral compass." It added, “you won't find a more talented, sophisticated, compelling lawyer—and he matches that with his overall humility and kind nature.” Before entering private practice, Kannon served as an Assistant to the Solicitor General at the U.S. Department of Justice and as a law clerk to Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. Kannon earned his undergraduate degree from Harvard, was a Marshall Scholar at the University of Oxford, and then returned to Harvard for his Law degree. In this episode we discuss the following: As Judge Sack told Kannon, all you can do in a career is stand by the hoop and hope that somebody passes you the ball. There's no substitute for hard work. At the top levels, everyone has great credentials. But what differentiates the very best people is they put in the work, in a profession where there are no shortcuts. Surround yourself with great people, including great mentors. But not just older people. Kannon devoted a lot of time to finding the most talented young attorneys who were driven, smart, and enthusiastic. Enthusiasm is one of the most important things Kannon looks for when identifying talented people: enthusiasm to work, enthusiasm to grow, and enthusiasm to learn. If you love what you do, it's easy to get out of bed in the morning and keep doing it.

Donald Trump a fait campagne sur la promesse de relancer la production d'hydrocarbures aux États-Unis, reprenant à son compte le fameux slogan « Drill baby drill », (« Fore, bébé fore »), et tant pis pour l'environnement. Fin mars, son administration a de nouveau autorisé l'exploitation pétrolière et gazière des réserves naturelles de l'Arctique en Alaska. Mais même au très conservateur Texas, source de plus de 40% de la production pétrolière des États-Unis, cette politique du tout pétrole est loin de faire l'unanimité. De notre envoyé spécial au Texas, Nous voici à Beaumont, tout à l'est du Texas. La Louisiane est toute proche. C'est ici même au tout début du XXe siècle qu'a été découvert un immense gisement pétrolier qui a lancé une véritable ruée vers l'or noir. À tel point que la ville consacre un musée à l'événement : « Après trois mois de travail acharné, les frères Hamill percent le secret de la plus importante découverte pétrolière de l'histoire. Le 10 janvier 1901, l'éruption projette du pétrole brut sur 30 mètres de haut », commente un film diffusé dans le musée. Le célèbre gisement est depuis longtemps épuisé, mais comme nous l'explique Heather qui travaille au musée, l'or noir reste au cœur de l'économie locale : « Le pétrole est essentiel pour Beaumont. L'université de la ville forme les gamins du coin aux métiers de l'industrie. Les usines pétrochimiques n'arrêtent pas de s'étendre et de recruter. Les gens de la région font jusqu'à deux heures de trajet par jour juste pour venir ici travailler dans nos raffineries. »Devant la grande raffinerie ExxonMobil de Beaumont, nous rencontrons Mike qui vient de finir son « shift » : « Si vous regardez une carte de Beaumont, vous allez voir que la raffinerie représente un tiers de la ville. C'est énorme ! » Alors, on lui demande ce qu'il pense de la politique pro-pétrole de Donald Trump : « Je ne suis pas la politique, pour tout vous dire, je ne vote même pas. Mais pour mettre les choses en perspective, pendant le Covid, Exxon a augmenté ses employés de 12%, alors que toutes les autres entreprises étaient en difficulté et dépendaient du gouvernement ! Donc pourquoi ne pas travailler ici ! »« Je suis préoccupé par l'environnement »Le musée de Beaumont propose une reproduction de la ville telle qu'elle était au moment de la découverte du premier gisement pétrolier. Il y a même un forgeron. « Quand l'industrie pétrolière est née, les forgerons fabriquaient la plupart des outils, les foreuses, rappelle l'intéressé, Rob Flurry. Et cette forge en particulier fabriquait des chariots, c'était le seul moyen de transporter le pétrole. Bien sûr, après, les voitures sont arrivées et les forgerons ont dû s'adapter. »Rob Flurry, lui, a fait le chemin inverse : « J'ai travaillé dans l'industrie pétrolière presque toute ma vie. Le pétrole a eu son moment, mais aujourd'hui, je suis préoccupé par l'environnement : il est temps de faire les choses plus proprement. Mais dans le climat politique actuel, ce n'est pas vraiment à l'ordre du jour, mais je suis sûr que ça reviendra ! » Comme quoi au Texas, on trouve de tout, même un forgeron écolo dans un musée du pétrole.À lire aussiEtats-Unis: la baisse des prix du pétrole et la crainte d'une récession freinent l'exploration

Sigma Computing recently hit $100M in ARR — planning on doubling revenue again this year— and in this episode, CEO Mike Palmer reveals exactly how they did it by throwing out the old BI playbook. We open with the provocative claim that “the world did not need another BI tool,” and dig into why the last 20 years of business intelligence have been “boring.” He explains how Sigma's spreadsheet-like interface lets anyone analyze billions of rows in seconds, and lives on top of Snowflake and Databricks, with no SQL required and no data extractions.Mike shares the inside story of Sigma's journey: why they shut down their original product to rebuild from scratch, how Sutter Hill Ventures' unique incubation model shaped the company, what it took to go from $2M to $100M ARR in just three years and raise a $200M round — even as the growth stage VC market dried up. We get into the technical details behind Sigma's architecture: no caching, no federated queries, and real-time, Google Sheets-style collaboration at massive scale—features that have convinced giants like JP Morgan and ExxonMobil to ditch legacy dashboards for good.We also tackle the future of BI and the modern data stack: why 99.99% of enterprise data is never touched, what's about to happen as the stack consolidates, and why Mike thinks “text-to-SQL” AI is a “terrible idea.” This episode is full of "spicey takes" - Mike shares his thoughts on how Google missed the zeitgeist, the reality behind Microsoft Fabric, when engineering hubris leads to failure, and many more.

Produire plus de pétrole n'est pas un problème climatique pour le président américain, mais un moyen de faire baisser les prix à la pompe. Une politique résumée par le slogan « Drill Baby Drill ». Mission réussie : les prix du brut ont chuté à leur plus bas niveau en quatre ans. À vouloir satisfaire ses électeurs, Donald Trump court cependant le risque de se mettre à dos l'industrie pétrolière et rend déjà service paradoxalement à la Chine. En encourageant la production d'hydrocarbures, le président américain s'est positionné en allié des majors pétrolières qui sont implantées aux États-Unis, mais la baisse des prix qu'il alimente avec cette politique – qui s'explique aussi par la décision de l'OPEP+ de mettre fin progressivement à ses coupes de production à partir du mois de mai – pèse aussi sur les résultats financiers des entreprises.La société britannique BP, déjà en difficulté, vient d'annoncer un bénéfice divisé par trois au premier trimestre 2025. Parmi les raisons invoquées, la volatilité des marchés. Chevron, ExxonMobil, Shell ou encore TotalEnergies traversent, elles aussi, une zone de turbulence économique et pourraient, selon plusieurs analystes, être tentées de repenser leurs investissements. Inquiétude dans le secteur du schisteCe pétrole extrait des couches de schiste du sous-sol américain a un coût de production plus élevé et la baisse des recettes entame encore plus la rentabilité des exploitations. Pour réduire leurs dépenses, plusieurs opérateurs ont ralenti leur activité de forage comme ils avaient déjà été contraints de le faire pendant la pandémie en 2020. Si les prix ne se redressent pas dans les prochains mois, un avenir dévastateur se prépare pour le secteur du schiste, préviennent déjà des producteurs. Le scénario est écrit, expliquent-ils au Financial Times : à moins de 60 dollars, les sociétés qui réaliseront des bénéfices seront de moins en moins nombreuses et, avec un pétrole sous la barre des 50 dollars, la moitié des entreprises pourraient disparaître au profit des plus puissantes d'entre elles et la production baisser à court ou moyen terme.La baisse des prix profite à la Chine, 1ᵉʳ acheteur mondialLa stratégie de Donald Trump rend paradoxalement service à la Chine, son premier ennemi sur le front commercial. La Chine est le premier importateur mondial de brut et remplit ses stocks dès qu'ils sont bas, et dès que les prix sont favorables. Qu'importe presque le niveau de la demande, la Chine a une politique d'achat stratégique, ouverte à toutes les origines, que le pétrole soit russe, iranien ou vénézuélien.Au mois de mars, ses importations ont bondi et s'accélèrent encore en avril. En ce moment, le pays importe environ 11 millions de barils par jour. Cela fait 18 mois que l'Empire du Milieu n'a pas tenu un tel rythme. Certaines raffineries auraient même repoussé leur maintenance annuelle pour continuer à produire de l'essence, du diesel et du carburant pour l'aviation. La cadence finira par ralentir une fois que les stocks seront reconstitués, mais ce ne sera peut-être pas avant le second semestre, selon le Financial Times.
S&P futures are pointing to a softer open, down (0.3%). Asian markets were mixed, with Japan and Australia posting gains while mainland Chinese indices edged lower. European equities are firmer in early trades, with major indices all up near +0.3%. The state of U.S.-China trade negotiations remains unclear, with conflicting reports and statements contributing to uncertainty.

Doordash is in de VS al de grootste, maar wil met de inlijving van Deliveroo ook z'n positie in Europa verder uitbouwen. Maar doe je er wel verstandig aan om de eeuwige nummer 2 te kopen? Tegelijk is het een mooi moment om te kijken of beleggers in Just Eat wel een eerlijke prijs krijgen. Of komen die er bekaaid vanaf? En niemand had dat gedacht: het oer-conservatieve ExxonMobil dreigt nog groenere praatjes te krijgen dan de 'Jesse Klaver' onder de oliebedrijven. Eerder deed ExxonMobil al dat duurzame gedoe nog af als een 'schoonheidswedstrijd', die klimaatverandering niet zou stoppen. Ook waarschuwt Klaas Knot dat zijn laatste ECB-vergadering 'echt een ingewikkelde' wordt. Verfmaker AkzoNobel staat op het punt om de grootste overname in jaren te doen. En Apple raakt steeds verder op achterstand in China.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The rise of AI means more datacenters, and that means huge increases in electricity demand. In the US, natural gas is expected to play a prominent role in powering the AI boom. In this episode of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we're talking with EQT, one of the nation's largest natural gas companies, to understand what's ahead for AI, the energy transition and sustainability. We sit down with Courtney Loper, EQT's Head of Government Relations and Public Affairs, on the sidelines of S&P Global's CERAWeek energy conference. She says natural gas can help the world shift away from coal-fired generation, which has a higher concentration of carbon emissions per unit of energy than natural gas. And she says EQT is focused on making its product as clean as possible, including by curbing carbon and methane emissions in its production of natural gas. "A big focus for EQT has been the replacement of international coal with US natural gas and really thinking about the emissions offset that can come from that," Courtney says. She says permitting reforms are needed in the US to get natural gas pipelines and other infrastructure built to meet growing energy demands from AI. Courtney also tells us the company's view on sustainability remains "unchanged." “Regardless of what winds shift in any sort of way around the idea of sustainability, it's something that we're going to continue to engage in, it's something that we're going to continue to promote, because it's important for the long-term viability of natural gas,” she says.

In this episode of The Hydrogen Podcast, we take a global tour of hydrogen innovation and policy—from the conference floor in Houston to funding announcements in Europe and startup breakthroughs in the U.S.
To understand how companies at the heart of the energy industry are approaching the energy transition, we took the All Things Sustainable podcast on the road to Houston, Texas to cover CERAWeek, the annual S&P Global conference informally known as the industry's “Super Bowl.” As we'll hear from today's guests, many discussions at CERAWeek 2025 March 10-14 focused on pragmatism and realism. We talk with S&P Global Ratings Chief Economist Paul Gruenwald about balancing near-term concerns around energy affordability, security and reliability with longer-term concerns about sustainability and climate change. Paul also discusses the impact of tariff uncertainty in the US. “Markets hate uncertainty, whether you're in the financial markets or you're in the energy markets and producing the energy that we all need,” Paul says. "Even if you align with the broad objectives of the new administration, I think all the back-and-forth and the drama around the tariffs have really put a damper on some of that excitement.” We speak to Arshad Mansoor about how the world can meet demand for electricity to power growing AI usage. Arshad is President and CEO of the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), a research organization that focuses on US electricity generation and delivery. To understand how energy companies are navigating the current transition landscape, we sit down with Cate Hight, a partner at global consultancy Bain & Company. And we talk to Damian Beauchamp about the role of policy in enabling technology innovation. Damian is President and Chief Development Officer at 8 Rivers, a clean energy and climate technology company that develops sustainable infrastructure solutions like carbon capture to help the global energy industry achieve net-zero.

Er gaat gi-gan-tisch veel geld naar de aandeelhouders van Shell. Miljarden aan dividend, miljarden aan de opkoop van eigen aandelen én er worden miljarden bespaard. Shell trekt alles uit de kast om beleggers te paaien. 'Historisch veel', zegt het er zelf over. Allemaal om de beurskoers op te pompen. Deze aflevering kijken we naar de strategie van Shell. Heeft het echt zin om zoveel geld uit te geven? Wordt Shell daarmee net zoveel waard als de Amerikaanse concurrent Chevron? En hoe ver moet (en kan) het bedrijf gaan om dat doel te bereiken? Wordt het geen obsessie? De aandeelhouders van Shell zijn blij, die van Tesla wat minder. De verkopen van Tesla in Europa zijn niet incidenteel gekelderd, maar nu al meerdere maanden op rij. Het lijkt meer op een boycot, wat de kopzorgen van topman Elon Musk vergroot. Kopzorgen waren er ook onder Europese beleggers. Heffingenkoorts hadden sommige. Ze dumpten hun Europese aandelen, vanwege de importheffingen waarmee Trump ze bestookte. Maar de koorts lijkt inmiddels wat weg te ebben. Valt de handelsoorlog dan toch mee? Ook hoor je meer over KPN. Daar mogen werknemers zélf bepalen wanneer ze op vakantie gaan. We hebben het over een beursgang van een bedrijf waar een van onze vrienden van de show werkt én je leert meer over Warren Buffett. Hij deelt flink uit.

Trump announces plans to reopen coal plants, rolling back environmental regulations to boost U.S. energy production. Meanwhile, the UK faces major power struggles as Heathrow Airport's outage exposes the risks of net-zero policies and reliance on biofuels. With the UK aiming for 95% low-carbon electricity by 2030, experts question the feasibility of such an ambitious goal.At the same time, big oil companies in Europe are scaling back their green pledges. Shell and Equinor retreat from offshore wind investments, prioritizing profitability over sustainability. Rising natural gas prices continue to drive up electricity costs, while OPEC+ signals mixed messages on production cuts, adding uncertainty to global oil markets.In corporate moves, Occidental Petroleum sells $905 million in mineral assets, hinting at a possible exit from Colorado. Chevron and ExxonMobil strengthen their positions in Kazakhstan, signaling a shift in global energy investment.

In recent episodes of the All Things Sustainable podcast, we've interviewed some of the world's biggest financial and technology companies about how they're approaching sustainability and the energy transition. But how is the energy industry thinking about these topics — including the world's largest fossil fuel companies? To answer that question, we traveled to Houston, Texas, to cover the annual CERAWeek conference hosted by S&P Global — an event informally known as the ‘Super Bowl' of the energy industry. In today's episode we sit down on the sidelines of CERAWeek with Matt Kolesar, Chief Environmental Scientist at ExxonMobil. US-based ExxonMobil is one of the largest publicly traded oil and gas companies in the world, with operations in more than 60 countries and a market cap of more than $490 billion. Matt explains the company's sustainability strategy and approach to the energy transition. Stay tuned for future episodes, where we'll bring you more interviews with stakeholders across the energy value chain. This piece was published by S&P Global Sustainable1, a part of S&P Global.

It's Thursday, February 27th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Ugandan Muslims stab Christian evangelist Morning Star News reports hardline Muslims stabbed a Christian evangelist in eastern Uganda earlier this month. The attackers stabbed 39-year-old Robert Kasozi in the stomach and beat three of his co-workers. This came after Robert engaged in open-air preaching and led a 75-year-old widow to Christ. Angered by this, the widow's relatives attacked the Christians and tore up their Bibles. Thankfully, the man is recovering from his wounds in the hospital, but has vowed to file a case with the police upon his return home. Authorities did not arrest any of the Muslim attackers at the time though some were known to area residents. This was the latest of many instances of persecution against Christians in Uganda documented by Morning Star News. Northern Ireland to threaten religious liberty Northern Ireland is considering legislation that could threaten religious liberty. Lawmakers for the region may consolidate existing so-called “equality” laws into one new law. The Christian Institute warns this could undermine religious liberty and “detrimentally affect the work of churches.” Officials previously used equality laws to target a Christian bakery for refusing to participate in celebrating sexually perverted lifestyles. Sam Webster with The Christian Institute told lawmakers, “Laws can be passed very easily, but legislators don't necessarily always see the implications further down the track for other protected characteristics.” Isaiah 10:1 says, “Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, who write misfortune, which they have prescribed.” Trump's budget passes the House In the United States, before the vote on President Donald Trump's budget on Tuesday, House Speaker Mike Johnson made these remarks. JOHNSON: “We promised to deliver President Trump's full agenda, not just a part of it. We're not just going to do a little bit now and return later for the rest. We have to do it now. And that ‘one big, beautiful bill' will include securing the border, restoring America's energy dominance, dismantling the deep state, growing our economy, ensuring we don't have the largest tax increase in US history, and a return to peace through strength. “We do not have time to waste. The American people are expecting us to deliver on this, and we will. House Republicans need to unite so we can keep this process moving forward. And I think they all understand that we're working right now to get everybody on board. I think everybody wants to be on this train and not in front of it.” The resolution passed 217-215 with no Democrat support and one Republican voting against it. The proposal lays a framework for enacting President Donald Trump's legislative agenda. It cuts $4.5 trillion in taxes and at least $1.5 trillion in spending and raises the debt ceiling by $4 trillion. The resolution would allow for the defunding of Planned Parenthood which receives hundreds of millions of dollars from the government each year. The proposal heads to the Senate where it must get bipartisan support. Georgia Supreme Court upheld Heartbeat Law The Supreme Court of Georgia once again upheld the state's heartbeat law. The court ruled 6-1 to uphold the Living Infants Fairness and Equality Act last Thursday. The law bans the killing of unborn babies with detectable heartbeats with some exceptions. The latest ruling overturns a lower court ruling in a case brought by abortion activists. Heartbeat laws in other states have been upheld by their respective supreme courts, including Florida, Iowa, and South Carolina. Amazon outpaced Walmart Amazon, the e-commerce giant, outpaced the retail giant Walmart in quarterly revenue for the first time. Amazon brought in $187.8 billion in revenue during the fourth quarter of last year while Walmart brought in $180.5 billion. Walmart has been the top revenue-generating company each quarter for over a decade after outpacing Exxon Mobil in 2012. Walmart is still projected to lead in annual sales, but Amazon is close behind. Decline of Christian identification has slowed A new report from Pew Research found the decline of Christian identification in the U.S. has slowed. Sixty-two percent of U.S. adults identify as Christians currently, down from 78% in 2007. That percentage fell to 71% by 2014 and 63% by 2019. However, the share of self-identified Christian adults has hovered between 60% and 64% over the past five years. Non-Christian religious identification stands at 7.1%, up from 4.7% in 2007. And identification as religiously unaffiliated stands at 29%, up from 16% in 2007 but appears to be plateauing. New plant found in Big Bend National Park And finally, a new species of plant was discovered at a U.S. national park for the first time in 50 years. Park staff members first encountered the plant in Big Bend National Park in Texas last year. The National Park Service noted that the plant's “fuzzy foliage and interesting flower looked like nothing they had seen before.” Researchers analyzed the plant, concluding it is unique enough to be classified as a new species. The plant is officially called Ovicula biradiata and belongs to the same family as daisies. Researchers are also investigating potential medicinal applications of the plant, including anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties. Psalm 104:24 says, “O LORD, how manifold are Your works! In wisdom You have made them all. The Earth is full of Your possessions.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, February 27th, in the year of our Lord 2025.
