Hoy, Pelican Island es el hogar de la Universidad de Texas A&M en Galveston, Seawolf Park y el Museo Naval de Galveston, que exhibe un destructor de escolta y un submarino de la Segunda Guerra Mundial.La universidad de Texas A & M en Galveston fue establecida en 1965 por el prominente empresario de Galveston llamado George P Mitchell. Este campus alberga actualmente la Academia Marítima de Tejas, una de las siete Academia Marítima de los Estados Unidos.El campus también es mundialmente conocido por sus programas de biología marina y negocios marítimos. Pelican Island está hecha principalmente de barro extraído de los canales de navegación de Galveston, Texas City y Houston durante proyectos de dragado durante el siglo pasado.Cuando el canal de un barco se profundiza y ensancha, debe haber un lugar para poner el barro y Pelican Island se convirtió en el lugar ideal para los ingenieros que buscaban un lugar para expandir sus bienes raíces en la Bahía de Galveston.Durante los últimos 100 años, la isla ha crecido constantemente hasta convertirse en lo que ves hoy. Cuando mires mapas que datan de finales de 1800 y principios de 1900, verás dos pequeñas islas al norte de Galveston. Estos se conocían como Pelican Island y Pelican Spit. Seawolf Park se encuentra en la ubicación de Pelican Spit y también es donde se construyó una de las estaciones de cuarentena para los inmigrantes a principios de los 1900s.Si tiene tiempo en su viaje a Galveston, le recomiendo que conduzca hasta el extremo este de Pelican Island para explorar el Museo Naval de Galveston y Seawolf Park. Seawolf Park es conocido en esta parte de Tejas como un destino de pesca de primera clase.Al mirar al otro lado del agua desde el muelle 21, probablemente vea barcos, plataformas petrolíferas, remolcadores o posiblemente todo lo anterior.

This episode, Jacki interviews Scott Angelle, the longest serving director of the U.S. Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (Dept. of the Interior) and the former Secretary of the Louisiana Dept. of Natural Resources about the spike in energy prices that always precedes U.S. recessions and what can be done about to fend off the next recession. - - - - - Jacki reviews the moving pieces on the world's superpower chess board through the lens of Daniel Yergin's The New Map: Energy, Climate, and the Clash of Nations, and recounts the history of George P. Mitchell's unleashing of the “frac'ing revolution,” making the U.S. the top producer of oil and gas on earth.  - - - - - The Administration's reaction to $3.00 gasoline and its impact on presidential popularity, historically. - - - - Jacki reviews environmentalist Michael Schellenberger's account of polar bear populations in his book Apocalypse Never and suggests that perhaps the hunting over 50,000 polar bears since 1970 is an underexamined factor producing their current population, holding at around 26,000. 

He’s known as the father of fracking. And while the designation may not be quite right, there’s no doubt that George P. Mitchell set the stage for a revolution in natural gas and oil production in the United States through hydraulic fracturing of shale formations. So, what made this man tick and what lessons might policymakers and industry leaders learn from him today? In this edition of Columbia Energy Exchange, host Bill Loveless talks with Loren Steffy, the author of a new book from Texas A&M University Press called “George P. Mitchell: Fracking, Sustainability, and an Unorthodox Quest to Save the Planet.” Loren is writer-at-large for Texas Monthly and a former business columnist for the Houston Chronicle. Before that, he was the Dallas bureau chief and senior writer for Bloomberg News. The book is Loren’s latest of three, including one that explored the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010. Of the late George P. Mitchell, Loren says, “not since John D. Rockefeller had one single individual in the energy business made a greater public impact.” He tells a story of the son of Greek immigrants who built Mitchell Energy and Development Corporation from a small start-up into a pioneering company that enabled the commercial success of hydraulic fracturing in the U.S. Bill reached Loren by phone at his home outside Austin, Texas, to discuss this fascinating figure, his contributions to fracking, the financial hardships his company endured to bring them about and the extent to which the government assisted those efforts. They also talked about Mitchell’s strong commitment to sustainable development, which sometimes put him at odds with his peers in the gas and oil industry.

The life and times of George P. Mitchell from biographer Loren Steffy (author of "Deepwater Horizon): his take on electric cars, how fracking and saving the planet were interconnected, and Mitchell's agenda for global sustainability.

Late billionaire George Mitchell was a Galveston-born wildcatter who became widely known for being the father of the modern process of fracking. Yet as a young executive, Mitchell became fixated with the idea of creating a healthy, sustainable community at a time when many American cities were experiencing urban decay. Author and former Chronicle Business Columnist Loren Steffy explores Mitchell's paradoxical life in a new book titled “George P. Mitchell: Fracking, Sustainability and an Unorthodox Quest to Save the Planet.” He joins Nancy to talk about the legendary Houstonian. Support the show.
