Photo via Cleantechnica While we’ve received a healthy influx of signs that the world’s heavyweights aren’t planning on diversifying their energy portfolios to any radical degree in the near future — China building a submersible to dive 7,000 meters underwater to explore for oil among them — there are still reasons yet to be optimistic.

A few years ago, the state of California passed a landmark bill designed to reign in carbon pollution to 1990 levels by 2020, and Governor Schwarzenegger signed it into law. Now, the trailblazing law is beginning to take effect — but wouldn’t you know it? The fossil fuel industry and conservative politicians who ally themselves with it are attempting to shut it down. In particular, a number of Texas-based oil companies have begun funneling millions of dollars into misleading campaigns designed to overturn California’s law…. Read the full story on TreeHugger
