Long term growth depends on economic policies that lift all boats. Trump's purely extractive policies are the opposite of that. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/14/b...

Good list, but where are voting for politicians who say they'll act on climate and joining groups to pressure politicians to deliver on promised climate action?

🚲🥗🚗 Small choices matter, but big change happens when systems support them.

WRI Climate ranked 19 climate-friendly behaviors to show which ones cut the most emissions and why policies & businesses must make them accessible.

Let’s not get too excited. But we can hope.

I get/buy mugs as mementos…and they do what is intended: they spark memories.

Eventually of course the cupboard overflows, and some get relegated to a photo & the donation bin.

OK I’ve done my Sunday sport (12 rounds in the ring with Reviewer 2). Got my mug of tea and bit of cake. Which Diane Keaton movie shall I watch? #academicsky

Good morning with good news: Fossil fuels will generate less than 50% of global electricity by 2028-2030!

Why?

Renewables surge from 32% in 2024 to 43% by 2030, while nuclear keeps at least its 2024 9% share.

RE plus nuclear hits ~52% by 2030!

SIGNED! 🥳🥳🥳💪💪💪

A massive victory for holding monopoly utilities accountable to their customers, and for lowering Californian utility bills.

Thank you to @governor.ca.gov, @asmmarcberman.bsky.social, @senmcnerney.bsky.social, @earthjustice.org, The Utility Reform Network for all your leadership!

A bill is sitting on @GavinNewsom’s desk that would lower Californians’ utility bills – all he has to do is sign it. But rumors are swirling that he plans to do the opposite - a move that could prove disastrous for California and for Newsom. A 🧵:

What do China's new climate pledges show us about the future? The putative electrostate elected to punt -- it isn't ready to commit to a non-coal future. Xi's government is unambitious, and seems to be falling into the very middle income trap that it says it fears.

China Is Deciding Not to Decide on a New Green Future
The country’s underwhelming new climate pledge is more than just bad news for the world — it reveals a serious governing mistake.

There are real people on the end of these grants. Rust belt autoworkers. Great Plains farmers and roughnecks. Coal communities looking to a new economic future.

It’s genuinely heartbreaking. They don’t have do this — the money is already obligated — but I guess they enjoy destroying lives.

This week, we lost one of the world’s greatest advocates for people and nature. Even in her final days, Dr. Jane Goodall was urging us not to give up, and now her legacy lives on through the countless voices she inspired.

State legislators r recommending good stuff! Better coord btw PJM & the states will speed up projects. 👏

Also hurray for Del. Charkoudian, MD-20. She calls out PJM to fulfill their duty (or what good r they).

P.S. The house I grew up in is in her district. 👏

Lawmakers urge PJM to take steps so clean energy projects can meet tax credit deadlines
“Either we have a resource adequacy issue or we don't — and I believe we do — so we need to be getting all of this energy online as quickly as possible,” Maryland Delegate Lorig Charkoudian said.
