Citizens Climate Lobby - Omaha

Omaha chapter of @citizensclimate, working to support bipartisan solutions to reduce carbon emissions.

[Citizens Climate Lobby - Omaha @CCLomaha]

We appreciate @RepDonBacon for his leadership and work to protect long standing #EnergyTaxCredits!

Many in NE02 support and they are important incentives for Nebraska farmers, rural communities and our energy independence.

Thank you for truly representing Nebraska!

[Congresswoman Jen Kiggans @RepJenKiggans]

Today, 12 of my Republican colleagues and I issued a joint statement in response to the Ways and Means Committee’s portion of reconciliation concerning clean energy tax credits. We ask House Leadership to consider 3 thoughtful changes as we move forward.

And is State Farm doing anything to address climate change? No. It is just charging Americans more...

Why doesn't State Farm seem to care about the charging the actual polluters that are significant contributors to the stronger storms that cost more to actually insure?

[Kay Carne @KayCarne]

@RepGregMurphy You're right @RepGregMurphy @RepDonBacon others- pushing for #EnergyTaxCredits to remain.

These tax incentives have been in place for decades and renewables, battery, nuclear, carbon capture will all be needed to be energy independence & meet the energy demands of our future!

@RepDonBacon @DonJBacon Please continue to fight for all the long standing clean energy tax credits.

There is broad support in purple NE02 for clean energy credits for solar, wind, nuclear, carbon capture.
Our young people deserve a stable climate!

@citizensclimate Thank you to NE02's maverick General @RepDonBacon for signing the letter to protect clean energy tax credits. Stay strong on this view - our energy independence, which is intertwined with national security, depends on moving wind, solar, nuclear and battery technology forward.

🎉 BIG NEWS 🎉
Remember last year's letter from 18 House Republicans urging Speaker Johnson to protect the clean energy tax credits in the Inflation Reduction Act?
We have another letter, this time with 21 Republican members of Congress!

new kind of dad just dropped:

✨climate dad✨

this is in addition to the traditional options of 1) great wars dad and 2) grill dad

should this type of dad appeal to you, you can start now by talking exclusively about heat pumps

[Citizens' Climate Lobby @citizensclimate]

YES! That's been CCL's message for years. Giving carbon fee revenue to households is a win-win.

[Madeline Ostrander @madelinevo]

Of the many important messages today from the IPCC, this stands out. "Every increment of warming results in rapidly escalating hazards." But this also means that efforts to remedy, repair, reduce #climate change matter, one increment at a time.

[Citizens Climate Lobby - Omaha @CCLomaha]

We feel lucky to have such a great community of climate advocates in Omaha. We'd love to see you all tomorrow at Millwork Commons! Join us at 2pm for a fine Kros Strain brew or other beverage, and let's toast to working together. Sláinte!

OPPD provides information on “Customer Owned Generation” including a solar calculator tool to understand your potential to produce your own electricity, reduce your electric bill and reduce air pollution: https://t.co/jojRO2aTNk

Interested in solar panels on your roof? The #IRA Residential Clean Energy Property (25D) tax credit provide a 30% uncapped tax credit for rooftop solar, battery storage, and geothermal heat pumps. Electric panel upgrades associated with these installs are also in the tax credit.

Look for the Energy Star label, including a cold-climate certification mark. In colder climates, focus on getting the highest HSPF (heating season performance factor) rating. https://t.co/uvY00HcL9x

[Citizens Climate Lobby - Omaha @CCLomaha]

Heat pumps are 3 TO 5 TIMES MORE EFFICIENT than most current fossil fuel heating systems, because it takes less energy to move heat around than to produce it. Heat pumps work by moving heat from one place to another, not by the burning of fuels. Cleaner air indoor and out!

[Citizens Climate Lobby - Omaha @CCLomaha]

This is so cool (and warm)! Heat pumps are nearly identical to your traditional air conditioner, except in the winter it operates in reverse-mode, pumping heat from the air outside your home to the inside.

How much can you save with the @ENERGYSTAR program? Find out with their simplified savings calculator. You just need to enter your zip code and the size of your existing system or space to be heated and cooled. https://t.co/4RuzdC0Uvc
