New CCI report proposes a roadmap to get us the offshore wind capacity we really need under the next admin: a new federal authority to get us from the current 50 GW in the pipeline to at least 270 GW (and up to 485) by 2050.

@cplusc.bsky.social released this major report on building community power via CBAs. 99% of design was done by the amazing @data4change.bsky.social, but I'm happy with this small contribution I made: this chart that required I do actual math to find the radius of a circle & draw it in Illustrator

I feel for the designer whose job it was to help NYers understand when they can vote. It would be cool to standardize voting hours 🤔 @nyccec.bsky.social

Already on it! Efcharisto

Lessons:
• Journos can get great access to exclusive data, experts, and impacted communities
• Orgs need to be flexible about timing their research for press cycles
• *Trusting working relationships* between journos and civic sector organizations are key to great collaborative data stories

I'll also talk about work by @pmbigger.bsky.social and Lorah Steichen @cplusc.bsky.social to estimate GHG emissions from Trump increasing Pentagon funding from $860M to $1T, covered by the Guardian www.theguardian.com/environment/...

I'll talk about this story I worked on with @stefanoschen.bsky.social in 2021 while working at ANHD that showed the close relationship between covid deaths, eviction filings, and POC neighborhoods. www.nytimes.com/2021/03/17/r... Super proud of that collab & grateful to Stefanos.

I'm speaking today at @datajconf.com to data journalists, and trying to convince them it's a good idea to collaborate with civic sector and advocacy organizations on data-driven news stories! Very excited, a little nervous!

My data viz & The Guardian's adaptation for their story on CCI's analysis of the emissions implications of Trump's increase in Pentagon spending (ie 178 megatons of GHGs, more than all of Ethiopia's). Cool to see their design choices.

What’s the best way to spend $1 billion for transportation?

Our latest report shows the positive impacts of every $1 billion shifted from highways to transit and identifies key policy levers to shift transportation investments away from highway spending.

Holy-Shit-grade new whitepaper just dropped from @cplusc.bsky.social.

Download this. Use this. It is so good.

I do not work there, I just think it is neat!

Imagine being Hasret Icsen. You pay $1,015/month for a 3-bedroom apartment in a green, mixed-income building full of amenities. When you touch your home, you're touching climate progress.

This is Vienna's green social housing. As @NPR explains, we could do it here

Most of Vienna's renters live in affordable, climate resilient social housing, and people love it. This is green economic populism in action, and a model to replicate.

This great @juliaradio.bsky.social @npr.org piece ft. our @cplusc.bsky.social work has the deets! www.npr.org/2025/06/15/n...

Have you seen the new @cplusc.bsky.social Substack yet? climatecommunityinstitute.substack.com

New from my team: for the same volume of energy transition minerals it would take to make all of the Pentagon's non-combat vehicles into EVs, we could electrify the entire Postal Service, the entire Parks Service, and put battery backup on more than 7600 federal buildings. 🧵
