I guess I'm biased as an economics reporter, but the characterization of climate, abortion, and identity as "social issues" drives me insane. These issues all have deep economic implications, and dismissing them as part of the culture wars wildly diminishes their importance.
Is it really true that AI's energy use is going through the roof, or is this just a ploy to justify more fossil fuel infrastructure - not to mention new nukes? I investigate in this essay in @nybooks@haymarketbooks@publicpowerny https://t.co/n5qtIkUEPv
“Not only that governments are failing to live up to their central responsibility to protect the public good, but the way in which they’re failing is making it impossible for civil society, communities, and households to work toward a solution.” https://t.co/1S9pPs77On
As done in the past, California & other states should replace fed incentives with their own to prevent new oil, gas, or coal from poisoning air, killing children, raising costs & creating insecurity

Losing this valuable aircraft data for atmospheric rivers is bad enough. If this happens with a major hurricane in the Gulf, that will be the ultimate "toddler touching the hot stove" moment, I think.
Be prepared for them to delete massive amounts of weather station data and claim it doesn't matter because it was all fabricated to support a "climate agenda."
After a proudly misogynist campaign based on a deeply patriarchal and anti-queer programme (Project 2025), we have been witnessing the 'broligarchs' line up for the Trump administration. Here is Cara Daggett on the "petromasculinist" aspects of Trumpism. https://t.co/b5uYPL4dFN
The Delaware Riverkeeper Network has been saying it from day one - Hydrogen Energy is a false climate solution! Read this amazing article: https://t.co/gGt3JWLkVz
We believe hydrogen will only extend our reliance on fossil fuels and hydrogen itself is dangerous.
“They saw the power of the Indigenous Standing Rock movement, and 22 states have passed laws [to silence climate activists]. This is absolutely a democracy issue.”

New Yorkers are tired of being played for suckers. @GovKathyHochul needs to screw up her courage and send the bill for climate damage to Exxon, not taxpayers #MakePollutersPay
I don't really care what Kamala Harris's position on fracking is. And I don't have a problem with her changing her mind about it. 🤷♀️
Just me? Is this a real hot topic that matters to most Americans? Or is this something the press is making a fuss over when nobody cares?
BREAKING: In a stunning leak, Project 2025 has announced that if Donald Trump is elected, he will eradicate all references to climate change and all progress made to fight it. Retweet so all Americans see this and know how dangerous Trump is to our planet.
.@KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz understand the fight before us and are not afraid to tackle climate change head-on. RSVP now for the Climate Voters for Harris-Walz Kick Off Call tomorrow, 8/16 at 3pm ET!
