We are excited to announce the release of the Environmental Hazard Adaptation Atlas, an effort to map ongoing and future environmental hazards and their impacts on society, and to provide up to date evidence on what policies and interventions work to reduce impacts: adaptationatlas.org.

More climate disaster won't necessarily lead to more climate change mitigation support. In our newest paper, we find people closest to the fires in the 2021-2022 fire season prioritized local adaptive action, rather than mitigation. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

As wildfires burn at home in 🇵🇹 and here in CA, we have a new paper that finds: exposure to fires doesn’t necessarily predict greater support for climate change mitigation. But people closest to the 2021-2022 fires do prioritize personal adaptive action. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

We are hiring - come work with us! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! facultypositions.stanford.edu/en-us/job/49...

Americans: it takes just a minute to submit a comment to the EPA asking them to preserve the 2009 Endangerment Finding, which finds carbon dioxide emissions to be dangerous to public health/welfare..it underpins all subsequent federal regulation of CO2 emissions www.regulations.gov/commenton/EP...

Looking for a way to do something? read the EPA reversal of the endangerment finding, and then file a public comment explaining why it is false, wrong, misguided. Your comment can be scientific, legal, or just about what the American people want.. Reversal: www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/...

According to a new report by those hippies at Morgan Stanley, in the past year 55% of North American companies have experienced a #ClimateChange related event that impacted their operations or business. That's a lot!

The energy provisions in the Republicans' One Big Horrible Bill are truly so bad! Who wants this? The country's automakers don't want it. Electric utilities don't want it. Data center developers don't want it. Manufacturers in energy intensive industries don't want it. 🔌💡

We are hiring a pre-doc at Stanford to work on (among other things) a project called Public Pulse, which will provide reports on public opinion in the US, and potentially fill the void of things like 538. Please share with your undergrads. iriss.stanford.edu/predoc/2025-...

Huge: The Army Corps of Engineers has confirmed to me that it has halted evaluations for pending permit actions related to renewables. The most confusing part? Its unclear why, and the EO they cited in their statement to me doesn't even mention renewable energy. heatmap.news/sparks/army-...

The NYT asked me to write an op-ed on Musk and the Treasury and then took a pass. I hope it will still get read.

putting this call out again: are you a climate or enviro scientist whose work has been paused due to the change in admin? is your job impacted by the IRA/BIL freeze? do you work in decarb and have concerns about your job stability? hit my line: [email protected] i’m on signal too, dm for info.

Scoop: The Trump admin has quietly issued stop work orders on projects funded under contracts with the Energy Department that reference community benefit plans, an attempt to target a crucial part of Biden’s environmental justice legacy cc @heatmap.news heatmap.news/politics/tru...

I hope rural communities, their co-ops, and especially @nreca.bsky.social are paying attention. Literally billions in funding to bring rural communities more reliable, cheaper electric power is at risk. Thanks @jael.bsky.social @heatmap.news for reporting on this! www.electric.coop/co-ops-win-b...

On @npr.org, I talked with Bellamy Pailthorp about Washington state’s climate law that caps emissions & invests in projects that improve people’s lives. It demonstrates that voters approve of local climate action when they see the benefits in their communities. 🔌💡 www.klcc.org/2024-11-28/w...

The stickiness of the IRA is a feature, not a bug. More than 3/4 of announced IRA clean energy investment is going to Republican districts. In a close house, it won't take many votes to thwart a repeal of manufacturing tax credits.

The election of Donald Trump is a gutting defeat for those working to accelerate the shift to clean energy. But it isn't "game over" in the climate fight. The next battle begins today. As we all process what happens now, here's my personal reflections @heatmap.news: heatmap.news/ideas/trump-... 🔌💡

Science is clear that “every action matters.” That’s why, despite the coming headwind, incl decisions to restrict research & discourage public communication of critical findings, it’s more vital than ever to continue fighting for a resilient future for people + nature. More from @carbonbrief.org
