Turn climate urgency into action. Accelerate America's transition to clean energy and support policies that rapidly expand renewable power, storage, transmission, efficiency and other solutions needed to cut climate pollution.

Yesterday, locally generated renewable electricity covered 94% of total electricity generation in Austria. This corresponds to 65.9% of Austrian final consumption yesterday.

Ummmm.... you're stifling the technology of renewable energy. That would improve a lot of things in this country, including employment. How is AI, which employs only a few people and burns the planet in the process going to be bigger than the Industrial Revolution? He is so ignorant.

You mean those nasty windmills that go whir whir whir you’ve cancelled and electric cars and safe renewable energy ideas the rest of the world is on top of?

Oh ya right. Bring back big beautiful coal and keep gas guzzling cars on the roads.
Sounds very technology driven.

Apart from renewable energy and electric vehicles.

I love me some renewables like plants. Plants are the only renewable solar plants. Burning fossil fuels bought us time to end burning plants, which we didn't. Now we claim that more PV can end fossil fuels, which it can't without reducing population & consumption. We don't mean well. We aren't well.

Fair point, thank you.

No matter how one slices it, Republicans and the oil kleptocrats are seeing record profits on our backs even as the Mad Pedophile King Trump tries to destroy renewable energy in favor of more and more oil.

No, it would achieve far better. Or, a trillion dollars into renewable energy, and the world would no longer need oil for heating, cooling, cooking, or transportation (maybe still plastic or long flights).

A social-media influencer with zero actual training or knowledge of #solar power is "just raising questions" ... gets the ear of prominent officials in the current govt working to cripple #renewable energy ... + threatens the New York state push for more solar on unused former farms.

Appalling.
An unlikely power player in the fight over solar on farmland
Alexandra Fasulo's attacks on New York solar have reached Washington and the governor's race. The state has struggled to counter her claims, even when they don't hold up.

Also: use it to build out utility scale renewable energy.

Credit where it's due, that was an amazing speech by Andy Burnham. My three tests were there (social care, water & renewable energy prices decoupling from fossil fuels).

Bonus points for electoral reform, closer ties with the EU due to Brexit failure, housing & mental health services for kids.

Just gets worse from here. Heat-pumps are *massively* more efficient than fossil fuel sources at heating.

Maine's a great example of a state doing things right, on their way to a renewable transition for energy and hundreds of thousands of heat-pumps! 80% cost coverage for low income!

Considering hazel dormouse (Muscardinus avellanarius) home ranges to assess the impacts of development projects
Abstract Renewable energy development plays an important role in mitigating climate change, but poses challenges to biodiversity. The hazel dormouse (Muscardinus avellanarius), a protected arboreal mammal, is increasingly at risk due to wind turbines being located into forested areas more frequently. This study theoretically examines the effects of clear-cuts on hazel dormouse home ranges. The home range data of two seasons of a long-term monitoring in Lithuania was digitised using QGIS. The home ranges were intersected with simulated clear-cuts of . . .

Plans for a new publicly owned Great British Grid could divert billions of pounds away from renewable energy projects, a Montel analyst said on Tuesday, although industry groups tentatively welcomed the proposal. montelnews.com/news/7c60d42...

WHEN YOU SHUT DOWN WIND AND SOLAR FARMS BECAUSE YOU HAVE YOUR MONEY IN FOSSIL FUELS, THAT'S GOOD FOR YOU BUT BAD FOR GLOBAL WARMING. IT'S ALSO BAD FOR THE PEOPLE THAT INVESTED IN RENEWABLE ENERGY AS FOSSIL FUELS REFUSE TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY AS THEY KEEP DESTROYING THE PLANET..
I'm on board with this.
Along with very lengthy prison terms for treason.

It is a good thing that there are several renewable energy executives in the private sector who support the centre-left! If you nationalise those companies that independent source of political capital disappears.

Last night Senate negotiators said they've reached a deal on permitting reform
Dem negotiators Whitehouse & Heinrich say they're "withholding" their endorsements until they've "discussed the last five yards" of said deal
Expect text later this week
Likely no vote tho

Republicans and Democrats will soon release details of the deal, even as Democrats hold reservations over Trump’s commitment to allowing more renewable energy projects.
