A picture is worth 1000 words... This appeared on the BBC News today, showing the increase in solar electric generation in the UK. Not sure who produced it, but genuinely think this is a genius piece of scientific communication - the construct and choice of colour scale is near-perfect. Chapeau!

“People need to be warned in order to be safe, and if we're taking apart the systems that warn them, we're taking away their avenue to safety.” @whitehouse.senate.gov talked with me before his 300th “Time to Wake Up” speech on the Senate floor for @nbcnews.com

Today I wrote about how this year many large institutions -- media, law, business -- sacrificed their dignity for profits. It is more vital than ever to support independent pro-democracy outlets. Become a Democracy Docket member to access premium content and support its work. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

Today I wrote about 60 Minutes' decision to obey in advance and why it represents the sad end to the storied franchise. We are in desperate need of strong independent media. You can help Democracy Docket be a part of it by becoming a premium member today. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

You guys, can i tell you what an incredible year we have had at @climatecabinet.org and @clicabedu.bsky.social?

My biggest pet peeve on the bike is drivers who don’t signal their turns. I’m trying not to get killed on the road and a big part of that is riding defensively and anticipating what drivers will do. It’s easier when they signal their intentions.

This is both long overdue and fantastic. Next step: don’t kill firefighters. They are incredibly talented, hard working Americans, not cannon fodder.

David Reid & a team of guardians with @sierraclub.org sued & won to protect forests. Reid had standing because logging would have been terrible for his trips & take area off table for people to enjoy the beauty & diversity of forests. www.sierraclub.org/sierra/2025-... @lkbotts.bsky.social

As 2025 wraps up, we’re celebrating clean transportation wins — despite constant roadblocks. From protecting the national EV charging network to opposing federal climate rollbacks, advocates kept progress moving. sc.org/CleanTranspo... @katherinejulia.bsky.social

At an @agu.org Town Hall today, @ncar-ucar.bsky.social President Antonio Busalacchi spoke to #AGU25 attendees about what's at stake if NCAR is dismantled. One attendee asked anyone who uses NCAR research to stand up. Almost everyone in the room stood. Read more here: eos.org/research-and...

Trump's move to gut fuel-economy standards for automobiles rewards his big oil donors and will “make cars burn more gas and American families burn more cash" Katherine Garcia @sierraclub.org @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/12/03/c...

Project Drawdown has always been the world’s leading guide to science-based climate solutions 🌏. With the new Drawdown Explorer, we’re moving beyond describing solutions → to spotlighting breakthrough strategies for accelerating climate action.

In 2022, Donald Trump sued me and others associated with the Clinton campaign for RICO. We did not cave. We fought. First, we won in a Florida trial court. Today, we won in the 11th Circuit. To the law firms, media corps and billionaires who bow down: Learn a lesson. Have some dignity and fight.

NEW EPISODE: Sen. Ruben Gallego and I discuss the future of American democracy, Latino political power, and why Democrats win when they focus on the economy and authenticity. youtu.be/RE7N0bTgHRo?...

Today I wrote about how Donald Trump sued me but I fought and won. The response was so strong we decided to post it on the Democracy Docket website for free. Enjoy. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

This country has given my family and me extraordinary opportunities. Practicing law is a privilege. Being able to communicate with you is an honor. I owe it to the country, the rule of law and all of you to do my part in the fight for democracy. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

A conversation, some legal analysis, and a brief discussion of the crazy investigation into Senator Kelly, as Trump’s need to take revenge on people who refuse to treat him like a king becomes increasingly all-consuming for him. joycevance.substack.com/p/explanatio...

My law firm is currently litigating 61 voting and election cases, including 12 redistricting cases. We have four cases in one stage or another before the Supreme Court. These cases — and others like them — will play a pivotal role in whether we have free and fair elections in 2026 and 2028.

This is interesting — a recent study of mode share (the % share of transportation trips by car, transit, walking, biking etc) relative to city size and income levels in almost 800 cities in 61 countries. Interesting results. HT @davidzipper.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Clean Energy accounted for all electricity growth this year. Gas/Coal were basically a wash and will be for years to come for electricity generation. We need to ramp up batteries because they are 90% cheaper than distribution grid upgrades which is the main reason we have rate increases.

"End this shutdown now and let’s extend these subsidies so that we can end both crises in one vote, today. And we can do that under the leadership of John Thune and we’re calling on him to do that." - @flyingwithsara.bsky.social youtu.be/wMPmHraBvWk?...

I want to take this moment during #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth to share a personal update. As many folks are aware, one year ago, in October 2024, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. It motivated me to write on how the energy industry is linked to rising diagnoses 1/11 www.forbes.com/sites/kellyf...

Ok, since many people are obviously not reading the article, here's a pertinent figure from it showing the top actions to reduce emissions.

An optimistic book in a grueling time. @dskamper.bsky.social gives us hope with stories of strategic fights led with the awakening of worker power. Solidarity is essential and so is reading this book. I was honored to write the foreword of Who✊s Got the Power?
