Right now, unfolding around us on a global scale, is a rich and unambiguous lesson on the dangers of fossil fuel dependence. The most obvious solution is for the affected countries to reduce their dependence through clean energy. Are you seeing that message in media?

Mamdani is considering ending free street parking in NYC. This would be another huge boost to NYC residents' quality of life, reducing traffic in ways that would be comparable to congestion pricing. And it would be another step in ending suburban free-riding on NYC.

I admit I'm a little confused as to why a consensus seems to have formed that SCOTUS will strike down Trump's obviousl illegal tariffs. That would be correct on the law, sure, but what does that have to do with anything? They'll strike it down if they feel that it saves Trump from himself (possible)
