Curious why PA includes coal waste as an eligible Renewable Portfolio Standard energy source? Or why NC’s RPS includes set-asides for pig poop? We address regional industrial legacies & the EJ dimensions of controversial renewables in our recent article in @envplane

While there are commendable renewable energy achievements in 🇨🇳, enduring obstacles persist with coal's dominance.

A true clean energy revolution cannot be shouldered by one nation alone, it must be the outcome of a collaborative global endeavor.

Great article by @LiShuo_GP 👌

@envplane @SarahEKnuth @amlevenda @GeogDurham Such a dream to work with this team on this piece, especially after the last 3 grueling years of fits and starts, canceled gatherings, and losing family members. Deepest thanks to EPE for hosting this Special Issue.

@looseuterus But still! I think it’s one of my favorite feelings to discover I still have coffee to drink. And I only drink decaf!

[Ingrid Behrsin, PhD @IngridBehrsin]

@looseuterus Isn’t that the best feeling???

[Thea Riofrancos @triofrancos]

"Green capitalism" doesn't mean capitalism is internalizing its environmental externalities and becoming "sustainable." It means economic sectors and investment linked to renewable energy, adaptation, or mitigation are new sites of accumulation, class conflict, and geopolitics.
