@elonmusk Good vs. Evil has been and will always be a Truism. We just lost sight of that for a bit when putting our hope in either the right or the left as politics should never be one’s source of hope.
@ThePrism89 @elonmusk Deserve? Exactly why is that? Maybe we deserve an education system that teaches basic economics such that young people don’t take loans that their education does not result in professions that allow them to be paid off?
@mattyglesias@elonmusk Surely you know that whether they vote or not, they are counted in the census for $ and apportionment of congressional seats. Don’t be an ostrich.
@econxpress While a significant achievement, its not nearly as ambitious as CNN suggests. We need to be critical and not accept misleading headlines that misrepresent the state of renewable energy.
@econxpress CNN’s article makes a false claim that renewables will account for almost half of the global energy mix by 2030. This is not true. It confuses electricity with energy, which are different things.
@econxpress Electricity is only a part of the total energy consumption in the world, and most of it still relies on fossil fuels. The IEA’s report actually says that renewables will make up nearly half of the global electricity mix by 2030

@CollinRugg Great reminder to be situationally aware and ready to drive through such blockages when in fear of ones health or safety. I’ve had to be mentally prepared for that when getting into some bad crowd situations years ago and just thankful it didn’t come to that but I was ready
@antikommunistic@curryja Doesn’t the paleo climate data show that CO2 had previously followed temperature? Still don’t understand how so many believe CO2 is the earth’s thermostat if they are honestly looking at the data.
