Winter Olympics start tonight! I wrote about Jacquie Pierri, a women's hockey player who is also a sustainable energy engineer and vocal climate advocate when she's not winning championships around the world. Such a badass. You need to hear her story: www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/jacquie-pi...
Meet Jacquie Pierri, your Winter Olympics climate hero
She grew up in New Jersey, built a career in clean energy and is playing hockey this month for the Italian women's team in Milan Cortina.

I mean, very possible it will happen, but we're two months out and Trump's White House is notorious for lying to get people to bend to its will? And clearly they know there will be pressure on the Dodgers not to show up? This just feels weird.
Maybe @latimes.com has something that's not in the story. But pretty surprised they ran with "unnamed White House official confirms Dodgers are coming to White House, no comment from Dodgers" as if the info is 100% reliable and could not possibly be a pressure tactic. www.latimes.com/sports/dodge...
Dodgers plan to attend White House following latest World Series championship
President Trump is planning to host the Dodgers to celebrate their most recent World Series championship, the White House confirmed Thursday morning.

Commentary: In these times, Jackie Robinson's team should not grace the White House
Jackie Robinson was a passionate advocate for social and racial equality, and the Dodgers going to the White House again would be incompatible with his legacy.

I'm in the New York Times today with some opinions about the Colorado River crisis.

Yes, we need to solve the alfalfa problem eventually. Also the climate crisis. But right now the biggest obstacle to sustainable solutions may be the state of Colorado. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/02/o...

THIS. Strike while they're vulnerable.
The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

In March, one of California's top lawmakers wrote to Dodgers owner Mark Walter, urging him to end all oil and gas industry sponsorships.

The team wouldn't comment publicly, but turns out they had an answer: Nope.
