Capture-and-kill tactics. Patent hoarding. Hacking journalists. According to MI AG Dana Nessel’s new lawsuit, these are some of the “cartel”-style tactics Big Oil has used to block clean energy and send costs for Michigan families sky-high. Thanks to @miattygen.bsky.social for fighting back 💪

It was so great to be on the Maryland Energy Talk podcast with @jamiedemarco.bsky.social and @ruthannnorton.bsky.social, talking about how Maryland is taking the lead in upgrading people's homes to clean, efficient, and affordable heat pumps! demarcoadvocacy.substack.com/p/what-is-a-...

Food $200 Data $150 Trump's war on clean energy causing a shortage of electrons $1,900 someone who is good at the economy please help me

Why are Realtor associations fighting clean air standards that lower bills & reduce pollution? Follow the money! Check out this @sierraclub.org blog that breaks down fossil fuel ties and political influence behind the opposition: www.sierraclub.org/articles/202...

Year 1 data on congestion pricing in Manhattan… * Vehicle traffic: -11% * Foot traffic: +3.4% * Storefront vacancy: -0.9% * Pollution: -22% * Revenue for mass transit: $548M So YES this has been a huge success.

Good news! The country’s largest all-electric hospital is about to open in Orange County, CA! May other hospitals follow this example. The future is healthier, more efficient, electrical buildings! Join us in these efforts. www.latimes.com/environment/...

NCAR is quite literally our global mothership. Everyone who works in climate and weather has passed through its doors and benefited from its incredible resources. Dismantling NCAR is like taking a sledgehammer to the keystone holding up our scientific understanding of the planet. Unbelievable.

so like, i’m aware that it’s not a done deal that all dems vote no on this bill flooding folks’ offices with calls tomorrow is probably a good idea if you care about the trans folks in your life

Burning gas in homes fuels Bay Area smog. 🏠🔥😶‍🌫️ 😵 Today we're one step closer to clean air. 55+ advocates turned out to the Bay Area Air District supporting clean air standards for water heaters with commonsense flexibility measures. Join us at bayareacleanair.com

"When there’s no war, you aren’t committing war crimes when you kill people indiscriminately. You’re just a straight-up murderer."

Good news from Colorado about their Clean Heat Standard: 41% emissions reductions by 2035 is big! www.canarymedia.com/articles/uti...

"But the issue isn’t that we need more 'boy-friendly' reforms. It’s that boys are still socialized to compete only with boys and to read girls’ success as illegitimate or emasculating. The result is dissonance, resentment, and disengagement for boys—and hostile climates for girls."

Yes please!

OMG the new york times, which endlessly discussed Biden's age, has FINALLY discovered that Trump is... ALSO OLD.

Good news! Thank you CPUC for funding the development of more affordable and equitable induction stoves, 24” 120V models for smaller kitchens, and 120V window heat pumps tailored for CA’s climate and buildings. These will cost less to buy, install, and run! calmta.org/room-heat-pu...

Good news! CPUC will support “neighborhood decarbonization zones” to transition away from natural gas toward zero-emissions alternatives. Phasing out natural gas in favor of electrified alternatives is a vital step toward California’s ambitious decarbonization goals. legal-planet.org/2025/11/18/t...

Did you know that baking a pumpkin pie in a gas stove for an hour can raise the air pollution in your kitchen to a dangerous red alert level, if your kitchen is not ventilated? Protect your family's health—open your windows while cooking over the holidays. FACTS: www.sfbaypsr.org/wp-content/u...

When I drive, I AM traffic. And so are the others around me. I'm grateful to the people on the bus, on foot, and on bike who take up far less space. #urbanism

"The denial came after the Trump administration documented $90 million in damage to utility infrastructure, according to records obtained by @eenews.bsky.social. The amount is nearly five times the federal threshold to qualify for disaster aid" "Trump’s denial is both unprecedented and unexplained"

This is so sketchy www.nytimes.com/2025/11/25/u...

Several bills set to be considered in a House committee would raise costs for households and businesses by attacking energy-saving standards. The Committee on Energy & Commerce’s holds a markup today to consider amending the bills and vote on advancing them. appliance-standards.org/document/hou...

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.

Experts say Big Tech should buy you a heat pump virginiamercury.com/2025/11/10/e...

NEW: Gov. Shapiro just cut a bad deal with Senate Republicans—abandoning Pennsylvania’s participation in Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) and walking away from our strongest tool to cut pollution, lower energy bills, and create jobs. #PAleg www.evergreenaction.com/press/shapir...

Really starting to make sense why Mike Johnson and Republicans skipped work for 40+ days

The soft pedaling language being used to describe the men in the Epstein files is enraging. They didn’t “have sex with underage girls”. They raped them. Sex implies consent. The survivors deserve better than this. Use the correct language. Say what these men did.

"We expect prices to average $4.00/MMBtu in 2026, 16% higher than in 2025, primarily due to increased liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports amid flat production growth" Exporting US gas to make US oil executives even wealthier off of the backs of the US public. It just has that 2025 vibe!

Here’s a gift link (no paywall) to the article, “Catholic bishops condemn ‘indiscriminate mass deportation’ in rare statement”: wapo.st/448fDw6

He campaigned on cutting the cost of living, but he has governed to raise it: regressive tariffs, immigration, fiddling with the Fed, cutting renewable energy, and firing the person whose job was to measure all of this.

The closed captioning is devastating

Thank you @vanhollen.senate.gov, @beyer.house.gov and Members of Congress urging PJM to shield families from skyrocketing energy costs driven by data center growth and PJM’s mismanagement. PJM must put consumers first—not utility profits

WOW. 81% of women 18-29 voted for Mamdani, 80% for Sherril, and 78% for Spanberger. Gen Z women aren't playing around.

A decision today by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit protects furnace standards set to reduce heating costs for many households-- saving households replacing an inefficient furnace with a new model an average of $350 over the life of the furnace. appliance-standards.org/document/cou...

An update from the analysts at WoodMac: yes, as of 2025, solar PV remains the cheapest source of power in the world. And -- bonus! -- it is still getting cheaper with every passing day.

A good link to send to your local NIMBYs: this study finds that installing wind turbines *increases* local property values.

WELL HOW ABOUT THAT "A millionaire levy in Massachusetts has generated $3 billion more in revenue than expected without forcing significant high-profile departures from the state." www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

The economics are clear: The push to build fossil fuels to power data centers is going to hurt people and one way to address that harm is by demanding these centers be built with clean, cheap, fast-to-build energy sources like wind and solar. From @profgalloway.com

It's a goal of mine to help make this the most famous, well-known and UNDERSTOOD quote about cities in history. Please share it as much as you can.

No kings Oakland!

Maryland must take action to provide clean heat and healthy homes. Read the latest from @marylandmatters about how @govwesmoore can do just that by finalizing the Clean Heat Rules. marylandmatters.org/2025/10/17/c...

Alarming trend: Gas utilities spend as much as possible on replacing pipes to maximize profits. The cost of delivering gas to homes in Chicago has doubled (and TRIPLED in Baltimore). Gas bills are rising at twice the rate of electricity bills! www.npr.org/2025/10/13/n...

Building energy codes save homeowners money and do not reduce the number of homes built! If you are looking to increase housing supply (which you should be!) best to look at other things like exclusive zoning.

Your gentle reminder that Rep. Melissa Hortman was assassinated on June 14 and hardly anyone bothered to talk about it.

A win for Maryland gas utility customers. Ending gas subsidies will save Maryland customers $1 billion over the next decade. marylandmatters.org/2025/09/27/a...

If you're tired of all the doom and gloom, see Samuel L. Jackson in this funny climate ad!🌞😂 #ClimateComedy
