[piper !! @piper_guest]

on this 50th anniversary of earth day think of some ways you can help preserve this beautiful planet !
-reduce and reuse (recycling is no longer the solution for getting rid of our waste)
-cut your plastic use
-compost ! super simple and cuts down on landfill waste

i think it would be really funny to Meet Taylor Swift but, not mention any albums or music and instead thank her for her work in the 2012 animated film, THE LORAX

In my reporting on clean energy misinformation I've seen one argument over and over.

Wind turbines kill birds.

While this is true, it misses an important piece of context:

Fossil fuel power plants kill 35x more birds per GWh than wind turbines do.

The rapidly falling price of renewables makes it possible to imagine a future in which the U.S., indeed the world, generates all its electricity emissions-free. “Electrify as much as possible,” Kolbert writes. “Ideally, electrify everything.” https://t.co/utThbwnnSW

BREAKING: Students Kicked Out of Football Game for Protesting MSU’s Decision to Invest in Fossil Fuels

For the last month I've been reporting on a group of people who travel across America blocking wind and solar projects.

This group has passed clean energy opposition laws in states across the country.

Here's the story of one man who has been doing this for 10+ years.

On November 10, 1975 the ‘Fitz’ the SS Edmund Fitzgerald sank. The American Great Lakes freighter sank in a Lake Superior gale with the loss of 29 souls. Launched on June 7, 1958 she was the largest ship on the Great Lakes. The 'Fitz" was immortalized in song by Gordon Lightfoot.

On this day 10 years ago, @MSUBroad, one of few Zaha Hadid buildings in the U.S., opened its doors.

Damn it feels good to be a Michigander.

Which North American tree is your favorite?
To protect these beauties, make sure to drown your fire with water before leaving it. To extinguish a campfire, pour lots of water on it, until the hissing sound stops. Then, stir with a shovel.

She’s a 10 but she’s an FBI informant

[Michael Thomas @curious_founder]

All across the country, local governments are restricting and banning clean energy projects.

I heard rumors that misinformation on Facebook was a major cause of this.

So I joined ~40 anti-wind and solar groups to see some of it for myself.

The results were bleak.
