A Brief History of Equality by Thomas Piketty
By describing the major historical advances in human equality and how they came about, Thomas Piketty shows us options for growing equality today and in the future. A dry but useful read. #books https://t.co/VrwiVi4KjG
Congratulations to @SCSU for cutting the ribbon on its new net-zero business school building! The crew @ClimateHaven is excited for the talent emerging from the school, especially from its Public Utilities Management Concentration. @SustainableOwls
Surprised to hear @drvolts leaning into a carbon price. According to @konetic_energy and Jacob Mansfield, without a #priceoncarbon, batteries on the grid increase emissions, but with a #carbonprice, operators will use batteries to reduce emissions. The politics remain unchanged.
@drvolts Happy birthday, Dave! Hope you basked in the warm glow not only of Barbie, but of work well done. We’re all grateful for lighting the rocky path of the energy transition.
Venomous Lumpsucker by @NedBeauman is a useful exploration of the arcs of the extinction crisis, AI, and advanced-stage capitalism. Kind of a goofy menagerie, but a fun, quick read.

This hot summer, my street has been cooler because thoughtful, committed neighbors like Ed Rodriguez and @NewHavenURI planted street trees years ago, which shade the street, filter the air, slow storm water runoff, and make it nice to sit outside. https://t.co/HjkOo11KaO
Virginia Woolf’s To the Lighthouse makes me feel like a teenager on the beach at night and like a parent at a dinner party. #booktwitter

Well that’s funny, @ezraklein, because this episode taught ME a lot about how decarbonization is going, is likely to go, and the political and policy reasons why. Thank you and @robinsonmeyer! https://t.co/OvHgIMHM0C
