Look at our new work on what laying the blueprint for what a public offshore wind governance option looks like!!! @sevier.io @jbozuwa.bsky.social
Excited to launch my latest paper on a federal offshore wind authority.

Trump is decimating OSW. But it is a *critical* decarb industry employing hundreds of union workers.

When we have our next chance for federal action, we have to be ready to supercharge OSW buildout. Here's our plan:
The current federal administration is destabilizing the offshore wind industry with stop-work orders and slashed subsidies. We need a credible plan to meet climate targets and build capacity—enter a federal Offshore Wind Authority. climateandcommunity.org/research/off...

So excited for this report to come out. We are going to need a massive reboot of the offshore industry if/when this country wants to tackle the climate crisis in the future. And it’s going to have to be led by the public sector.

We propose that a future administration establish a federal Offshore Wind Authority to supercharge buildout and deliver affordable electricity.

🎯Those of us who regularly talk to people about ending oil, gas and coal know this. But there’s also polling!

Yet the elite Dem world has a bizarre aversion to bashing oil companies.

They should become economic populists - and deliver.

Polarize, energize, win… and go get that Green New Deal!👇

Awesome to have worked on this with great folks!

Reflecting on the projects I've worked on this year - we tend to underestimate support for climate policy, whether it's RE or fossil fuel phase out. Correcting misperceptions might kick us into action

New polling out today -- voters SUPPORT phasing out fossil fuels. The last election cycle, both Harris and Trump said "drill baby, drill" but it turns out that this doesn't track with popular opinion.

I've created a starter pack for Public Ownership of Energy. It's a short list of people right now as this is a topic many dismiss outright so there aren't many of us. Others who have done work aren't on Bluesky yet. I'll also be pulling together all relevant work on this topic into one place.

We've found consistent support among U.S. voters for public ownership @dataforprogress.org. A 🧵 of a few charts for your feed.

67% of voters agree that new infrastructure projects should be mostly publicly owned moving forward.

Hey Bluesky, I am excited by all the energy coalescing on this platform. It seems like a place for strategic thinking, which we badly need.

I have a suggestion re: permitting reform which, increasingly, is less center-left, more center-right, and infected w/obnoxious “ecomodernist” approaches.
