Along with our friends from @NYS_OGS, we hosted an #EV 'Meet & Greet' and panel discussion in Albany to share how we're working on greening #NewYorkState's light-duty electric vehicle fleets.

As floods & fires rise, oceans boil & ice melts, and "safe" temperatures are breached, something momentous just happened in the heart of the EU. No one has heard about it: journalists were present, but their editors refused to publish 🤯.

@ProctorGamble wtf?!? Why am I subscribing to your #plasticfree product just to have it sent to me in an all-plastic (not even a little recyclable) mailer?? Not the first time, either. #sustainability ?? #pginnovation ?? DO BETTER. 🤦‍♀️ #shameful

@timparrique @pearcemm The word "degrowth" indicates a negation, which is inherently threatening, even to those who embrace the concept itself. And then we have to work that much harder to gain acceptance and understanding for something that already IS a positive thing!

[Lielle Berman @LielleBerman]

@timparrique @pearcemm What would the robot say to changing the name to something like "regrowth"? Anytime a thing is identified by centering something it's NOT, it fails to establish its own identity, and perpetuates the thing that it's not as the norm.

@MaryHeglar Happy birthday, Mary! I’m a huge fan — you inspire me all the time 😍 here’s some birthday attitude from my boys, Tucker and Kevin 🥳

[Alison Whalley @alisonjwhalley]

Degrowth is not recession. It does not fit easily into the left/right narrative either. Its a new kind of economy that accepts the challenge that we live on a planet with finite resources.

@dcvatodude @qjurecic Hear hear!

@thomasmountain5 @ecomarxi What about actual democracy??

[Lielle Berman @LielleBerman]

@MaryHeglar That's great! Because the fossil fuel economy is inherently inflationary, and the FF industry is responsible for driving up costs on everything, so he's saying he's committed to making sure we accelerate the transition AWAY from fossils, RIGHT?? @Sen_JoeManchin

Great thread to better understand value of skepticism and digging deeper with outlying info

[Andrew Dessler @AndrewDessler]

One of the things you learn as a scientist is the ability to look at a plot and think, "that just doesn't look right." That's the feeling I got when I saw this plot that Lomborg is currently pushing.
