Kinda feels like the head of the clean energy lobby saying on the radio that we need to burn more coal to solve the housing crisis should be a bigger deal

The trajectory to 2035 matters. Coal generating a lot or a little before 2035 is the difference between massive climate impacts and very little climate impacts. This narrative of 'inevitability' is dangerous and stokes severe complacency.

Moments ago: tenants of the South Shore apartment building that federal immigration agents raided at the end of September held a presser to announce they're forming a tenants union.

They're demanding, among other things, sewage removal and heat and electricity restroration.

More updates TK.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

For my entire life I've heard that if you visit Mexico "don't drink the water."

I'd now give the same advice to anyone visiting the US. Especially in the states that produce oil and gas.

When you switch from fossil to clean you only use like 30-40% of the energy to do the same stuff, bc most energy from fossil fuels is lost as waste heat

What's I'm trying to say is that all climate action is degrowth

WELCOME TO DEGROWTH EVERYONE
From my file on the IEA's world energy outlook.

"Primary energy" = what goes in

"Final energy" = what comes out

The space in between: mostly lost energy bc burning fossil fuels is absurdly wasteful.

New Yorkers, upstate and down! Let’s put our mighty shoulders to the wheel. Here’s your first post-election thing to do:
It's time for New York's climate movement to get serious about fracked gas pipelines. That's why we're asking folks to pledge not to vote for @governor.ny.gov in the Dem primary if she approves the Williams NESE fracked gas pipeline.

Take the pledge!

To sum it up: It was a very good election for the climate

"In races from New York to Georgia to Washington, voters backed funding renewables, reining in energy costs, and building out mass transit — and the people promising to deliver those policies."

In the first election of President Trump's second term, voters make it abundantly clear that they still care about climate action.

Democrats have spent the last nine months wringing their hands about how now one cares about climate or energy policy, blah blah blah.

Meanwhile, HIGH ELECTRICITY PRICES were key to Democrats winning in Georgia, New Jersey and Virginia. Maybe, uh, people do care?

Good thread on why Bill Gates “is another Billionaire we should just ignore”
Bill Gates hasn’t made sense on Climate since he teamed up with Bjorn Lomberg in 2009. This is just a restating of Bjorn’s book from this year about how we have a finite amount of money and we shouldn’t use it for climate. What they get wrong is that climate solutions are now fully profitable.
Bill Gates has a new memo out calling for a “strategic pivot” on climate change, downplaying “doomsday” talk to focus on filling enormous post-USAID budget gaps in global health and vaccine funding. I got an early glimpse of his thinking last week:
