Japan to cut coal-fired power generation by 90% | NHK WORLD-JAPAN News https://t.co/eyM4EVob1H

This is really bad news for #coal companies banking on the moonshot of shipping coal mined in #Utah through Oakland and over to Japan.

[Ryan Beam @RyanDBeam]

Amazing story of negligence, favoritism, low standards, buddy-buddy appropriations, and the total absence of accountability. In other words, "The Utah Way."

Does the Utah Legislature even care what happens to the millions it gives outside groups to push anti-environmental agenda? https://t.co/321tlauZZa

Great in-depth coverage of efforts by a fossil fuel industry group to organize and leverage political power from Utah and other Rocky Mountain states to ram the proposed Jordan Cove fracked gas export terminal down Oregon's throat.

To my fellow climate/environment staffers, I am hearing a simple message "do more." Do more everyday, now and continuously to fight for racial + economic justice. We have allies/opposition + disproportionate $$/influence. This is either really good or horrible. #BlackLivesMatter

"Analyzing nearly 3 million birth certificates in the state, researchers found that newborns in rural areas between 2006 and 2015 were 40% more likely to have a low birth weight if their mother lived within a kilometer of a high-producing oil or gas well."

Women who lived near oil and gas wells in California during pregnancy were more likely to deliver underweight babies, according to a first-of-its-kind study from UC-Berkeley. https://t.co/dFfHmS4kLR

"The Silent Looters" by @emorwee

"'The fossil fuel industry’s greed, unchecked corporate power, and unchecked exploitation of workers—all these issues intersect with racial justice and racial oppression,” [Liz Havstad] said.

We stand side by side with @Mvmnt4BlkLives and demand the immediate moratorium on all utility shutoffs and rent cancellation for our commmunities. #NoShutOffs #DefendBlackLives #DefundThePolice #RentReliefNow #BlackLivesMatter

Giving a failing industry billions of dollars with few to no strings attached is probably a bad idea. Banks, PE, etc have been playing that game for years. Let’s not throw taxpayer dollars into that dumpster fire https://t.co/iythOwxFsk

[Black Lives Matter (BLM) @Blklivesmatter]

We call for an END to systemic racism that allows this culture of corruption to go unchecked and our lives to be taken. See the demands. Sign the petition. #DefundThePolice #blacklivesmatter https://t.co/JYe7JSmYuP

Exxon’s shareholders own climate change. Their cash fuels the company that engineered climate denial, blocked action for decades and is just as reckless now. Beyond time for investors to #DumpExxon & #StopTheMoneyPipeline: @churchofengland @NYSComptroller @CalPERS @CalSTRS #$XOM

Feds cut oil and gas royalties in a move that could hurt Utah’s local governments, via @sltrib

It may help out the industry but it will slash critical revenue for local governments that are dealing with a public health crisis.

Due to a tax change in the #coronavirus relief bill, oil companies are getting a stealth bailout and some companies are even using the money to try to pay executive bonuses.

Oilfield environmental liabilities (#AROs) account for as much as 50% of reported debt in the #oilandgas industries, yet you have probably never heard of them.

Browning has been bending Trump administration's ear and influence. He talked to DOE last week which he says is advocating for fracked gas exports and developing diplomatic channels for gas

Getting Rockies fracked gas a foothold in the huge future Asian market is "The Big Prize"

CEA is working on study that will show supposed climate benefits of replacing Asian coal w/ fracked gas.

Big question: will they correctly factor in fugitive methane (not to mention other fracking impacts)? Recent reports show huge underestimates in Pennsylvania and the Permian.
