This is beyond awesome. Great coverage about an inspired and ambitious transformation.

Motivated by economic, competitive, and national security benefits, US states and local communities are transitioning to advanced energy systems. RMI analysis highlights the market dynamics, politics, and policy driving the shift to clean energy: https://bit.ly/4gHxJdm

Hi @npr.org! We worked late tonight putting together this handy pocket guide! It doesn't address road design issues, but if we're going to educate road users, we should include drivers. It's the size of a folded business card. Print it, fold it, put it in your wallet!

It looks like Dinosaur Field Station of NJ is closing and selling their Dino sculptures

Great stuff from #climateweeknyc today, both on the @nestclimatecampus.bsky.social main stage, outside events and individual meetings. Takeaways for #MarComms teams: 1) there’s more common ground and progress than you think 2) stay confident & ignore the haters 3) simplify, simplify, simplify

On the train to #climateweeknyc and busily following all the ppl and orgs posting here about it.

Good stuff from @pe-coalition.bsky.social and @axios.com at #climateweeknyc. The materiality of climate change — rising insurance and energy costs — are compelling messages for broad audiences. Important guidance for all climate communicators.

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: We have downgraded the #US climate action to "Critically insufficient" - it's the most aggressive, comprehensive and consequential climate policy rollback the CAT has ever analysed. 🔗 bit.ly/CAT_US

16 years ago and still hilarious.

Solar industry friends: equinoxes and solstices are great times to grab everybody's attention. * ed note: the pedant in me wanted to say "equinices" and "solsctii," even though that's not right, either.

This is what hope looks like.

Love this. Grateful for @billmckibben.bsky.social’s energy and leadership. And the thousands of people who made it happen. Fun to see my hometown, Indianapolis, go big!

Go Birds. #philly

It’s almost like the technology, economics and policies were good for the local communities…

Solar is not “alternative energy” anymore - it's powering homes, jobs, and communities across the country 🌻✊ Thanks to Senator Sanders and @billmckibben.bsky.social for participating in our documentary, and for lifting up Sun Day together!

LFG Here for all the kid boredom, especially in spaces where there are constructive alternatives.

Was just listening to an REM live album and stumbled into this piece of solar history. Lyrics from the tail end of “Everybody Hurts” and UPI story below. Ahead of Climate Week NYC, feels like a good reminder of how far we’ve come. And how far we still have to go. www.upi.com/Archives/199...

so many dead canaries and we just keep on mining

This 100%. If you’re going to use AI, give it a good unique idea and an outline first.

In addition to his many accolades and accomplishments, #RobertRedford was an early supporter of @votesolar.bsky.social We will always be grateful. He will be missed. www.nytimes.com/2002/12/08/m...

💯💯💯

The city of Philadelphia spends only $104 per resident annually on parks and recreation, a paltry amount when compared to other major cities: New York: $226; Chicago: $262; Seattle: $412?! We must invest more in them before it's too late, writes Kyle Bagenstose for @phillymag.com.

Appreciate this. Recently on LinkedIn, I when I said our kids deserve better than a lifetime of fossil fuel, an apologist for the status quo accused me of using "marketing" language. Call it what you want. The data show it resonates.

there has never been a better time to not tweet

This is the official spokesperson for the White House, stating that the President hopes to deploy the United States military to occupy every city controlled by the political party that opposes him. Explicitly.

Bader putting in good work for the Phillies.

“Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America.”

Grateful for @justinwolfers.bsky.social ‘s blunt and expert assessment.

Great collab between @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social and @ivan-ehlers.bsky.social for the @latimes.com! Share widely

All of this. And props to the ones paving the way for others, like @ossoff.senate.gov @govpritzker.illinois.gov & @aoc.bsky.social. Stop Acting Like This Is Normal www.nytimes.com/2025/09/07/o...

Two new papers find renewables are good insurance (they stabilize electricity price volatility in welfare improving ways) www.nature.com/articles/s41... www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... 🔌💡

This definitely feels like a @greatdismal.bsky.social plot point.

Unlike the glaciers....

When I was a kid in Cub Scouts*, we cooked hot dogs in a homemade solar cooker made from aluminum foil and cardboard. Seeing the ease and power of solar firsthand was powerful. Still is. That’s why tours like these shift conversations, shape policy and create new advocates.

Phillies need to re-sign Schwarber in the same park where Travis proposed to Taylor.

Critics see big risks

August home games have been RIDICULOUS. Just wild. Thanks, sportsball.

We all know the power of good storytelling in marketing & comms. But how do you *find* those stories? My latest LinkedIn article: www.linkedin.com/pulse/7-tips...

"Coal as far as the eye can see." That was my first thought when I jogged over an overpass near my house yesterday. Dozens of cars stretched for more than a mile, each piled high with coal. It was a scene from 1925, not 2025.

Props to Penn Environment, @votesolar.bsky.social, local press, elected officials and residents to come together and celebrate a clean energy victory in the PGW clean energy settlement today. We have a TON of challenges ahead of us. But we ALSO have to celebrate successes and replicate them.

Maybe the first #phillies game with synchronized cell phone lights for the Duran entrance. Was pretty awesome.

So, so, so dumb. The solutions are right there and yet... Good stuff from @gothamist.com. Nice to see @njpolicy.bsky.social and others making the case. gothamist.com/news/trump-m...

Hey Philly! We're trying to connect with students, teachers, and parents who rely on SEPTA for school transit. Help us spread the word and lmk if your route is getting cut: www.chalkbeat.org/philadelphia...

Budgets are moral documents with real impacts. #pennsylvania

This was good.

Sad. But also, #props.

Fitting that, on the night Jimmy Rollins is inducted into the #phillies Wall of Fame, it’s a small-ball victory. #ringthebell

I'm going to be thinking about this thread for a while. Today, the Venn diagram of corporate pragmatism and political pragmatism is nearly an overlapping circle. Does the IRA pass with a more strident enviro message and more upsides for blue states? Maybe not.
