Ethiopian leaders must be looking at the price of oil and feeling reassured about their decisions. 🎁🔗 www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

FYI the 1970s oil crisis was the impetus for Copenhagen turning into a cycling city

One weird benefit of the National Guard being deployed to DC for 7 months is it means a lot of people can go back to their hometowns to report that the city is not, in fact, a hellscape

SCOOP: FEMA has canceled all local emergency manager trainings due to the DHS shutdown — except for those related to the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Here’s @jeva.bsky.social with the story: heatmap.news/adaptation/f...

Greater Greater Washington endorses Janeese Lewis George for DC mayor.

there's a lot going on right now but did you know a massive amount of the world's fertilizer flows through the middle east, and did you know that that fertilizer needs to be shipped to the us *right now* for planting season, and uh did you know we are at war with iran

There should be an Earth for people who don't hate all living things

The perfect littering sign doesn’t exis—

A small gesture with a big meaning: tricycles are now a standard offering from the Bizkaibizi bike share. By adding three-wheeled cycles, Bizkaia is making a powerful statement: cycling is for everyone—older adults, those with balance limitations, and riders who feel more confident on three wheels.

I’m just glad I stayed in DC long enough for Andy’s Pizza to show up

Zohran's omnipresent campaign for 3k/preK enrollment (videos, influencers, press, ads, robo-calls, texts, etc) is proof of how being a good communicator is fundamental to good governance. Let me explain!

-Nearly 5 million children have asthma -Diesel fumes exacerbate asthma -Studies have found that *test scores went up* when school buses were electrified

Letz go even bigger and better,,, ALL Female US Olympians and Paralympian medalists are invited out to celebrate in Viva Las Vegas for the SHE GOT GAME Weekend ,,, Hit a guy up and LETZ GOOO

From books to newspapers to blogs to Twitter to video -- each step of that evolution is doing more to discourage real, sustained, disciplined thinking & argumentation, to the point that I'm not even sure Kids These Days recognize those things in the wild or even know they exist.

If you can, please give and/or share, #BikeDC. There is now a ghost bike for Kenny, and he won't be forgotten.

Hot take: We should support the Washington Post. It’s not a money making venture for Bezos and it might disappear. There are excellent journalists there doing exceptional work, & we need them to continue. Ignore the opinion page, like we’ve done with the WSJ (whose journalists are also world class).

The things you learn when you’re down a biathalon Wikipedia rabbit hole! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ski_war...

We often leap from “every tenth of a degree matters” (basically true) to “all incremental climate progress matters equally” (not true). We’re no longer pursuing the major economic shifts needed to sustain emissions reductions over decades. heatmap.news/ideas/trump-...

In the U.S., 10% of new cars sold in 2025 were EVs. In China, that number was more than 50%. China accounts for about 65% of EV sales among the countries shown 👇 source: @voronoiapp.bsky.social

You’ll maybe think in trump term 1, this would have driven so much, for instance, cable news coverage. It would be Scott Pruitt EPA on steroids. But because it’s the SECOND trump era, it is comparative background noise Madness

Has anyone asked Bad Bunny for his thoughts on DC statehood

Good morning! Taxing the wealth of the richest 1% of Americans down to the median wealth of the next-richest 9% ($5.2 million per household) would free up $48 trillion. Redistributing that to the poorest 50% of Americans would give *68 million households* an average of *$700k per household*.

A new RMI report does the math & finds that consumers save money by buying used EVs.

STRONG MESSAGING about the seriousness of the cold and wind on Saturday from the National Weather Service. Power outages possible. Longest period with subzero wind chills in 30+ years. A good day to stay inside, or bundle up big time if you have to be outside.

Seven years ago yesterday, this ad ran during the Super Bowl.

The Post has done some of America's best climate journalism. They won a Pulitzer for climate, then grew the team to 30+ people. Exec editor Sally Buzbee called climate "perhaps the century’s biggest story." Now down to 5 writers. Thank you Jeff Bezos. www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/washington...
