Wow. In Dunoon Scotland our waste flushed directly into the Lochs. The Langoustines were never so good. Now they are almost gone. https://t.co/LNlf3GOADK

Data from across the country show that Black people are routinely cited for jaywalking at higher rates than white people, making their simple act of crossing the street grounds for potentially dangerous police interactions. https://t.co/sgTmMb1ET3

The Senate Judiciary Cmte will likely vote Thursday to subpoena Harlan Crow, Leonard Leo, & Robin Arkley II over their gifts to SCOTUS justices as part of an ethics probe.

With public trust in the court at historic lows, here are three reforms that could restore its legitimacy.

Make it 36 days straight (10% of the year) with 0 power from an 1,100-MW subsidized Diablo Canyon reactor.

That's a loss of 950.4 GWh that is made up for with fossil gas.

No solar or wind farm needs to be down so many hours thus needs so much continuous backup.

Global EV sales are headed for over 14 million sales this year, up 35% from 2022. 📈

China is driving the increase, and Europe has been surprisingly resilient. Why is the US further behind? Read @colinmckerrache's take. https://t.co/pw7W6Rhyco

Hard to overstate how inefficient transport systems are.

Graphic of energy flows in transport in the US (from 2005 - old, but probably not *that* different today).

31 units of energy goes in.
🚙 7 units go to actually moving.
🔥 24 units are wasted.

The @DeptVetAffairs disability claims backlog is headed back over 300,000 for the first time in a decade. But department officials are trying to calm fears of past backlog messes. https://t.co/uGwF2cXn8o

Breaking -- @DeptVetAffairs mistakenly paid nearly $10 million to senior execs in improper incentive pays, and now they're asking employees to give it all back. https://t.co/9AOcbPU0s4

"So far, not a single molecule of CO2 emissions has been avoided by a new reactor"

There’s no such thing as a new nuclear golden age–just old industry hands trying to make a buck

A single beaver pond holds an estimated 1.1 million gallons of water and recharges underlying aquifers with an even greater amount of water.

Upon European arrival to North America, as many as 65 million beaver dams strung together waterways and hydrated landscapes.
