Great speaking with @lizabio about our new study on hazardous air pollutants and abandoned oil and gas wells.

[Liza Gross @lizabio]

“Our study is the first to thoroughly identify that there is a benzene hazard associated with abandoned wells,” said @PhySciEng's @sethshonkoff, about a groundbreaking study focused on Western PA.

NEW: Our interactive map pairs California Public Safety Power Outage (PSPS) data with economic, demographic, and #climate vulnerability factors for census tract level insights.

In-depth analysis on where, when, and how long outages occur in our blog. https://t.co/TDtfC1rgEY

[PSE Healthy Energy @PhySciEng]

Current #climate trends put 129 industrial sites along California's coast at risk of flooding by 2050, posing heightened risk for nearby environmental justice communities. New research by @UCBerkeley @UCLA @PhySciEng in @CNN https://t.co/1Kjau7lf0r

@lizabio @insideclimate Congrats Liza!

The federal court's decision to overturn Berkeley's gas ban is "by proxy, the latest attack on the body of scientific evidence... on the health and climate impacts of natural gas usage in the building sector,” said @sethshonkoff @PhySciEng via @grist. https://t.co/f0YESqWPpE

This is what it looks like on the Bay Bridge right now.

[Kelsey Bilsback @BilsbackKelsey]

We are looking to hire a summer intern (undergrad or master's level) to help build a database that will support research on the air quality and health implications of oil and gas emissions. @PhySciEng

@orenkz Congrats!!!

[Seth Shonkoff @sethshonkoff]

We are thrilled to be partnering with our colleagues at UC Berkeley on this important study and grateful to the USEPA for funding it.

[PSE Healthy Energy @PhySciEng]

We're thrilled to announce that @PhySciEng has been awarded $1,350,000 by the U.S. @EPA to study how #climatechange, air pollution, heat, and humidity relate to birth outcomes in California. Thanks to our partners at @UCBerkeley and to @EPAresearch! https://t.co/5JpnZoOvFi

NEW REPORT: Researchers from @UNM and @PhySciEng analyzed health- and #climate-damaging air pollution from New Mexico's largest emitters. (1/5)🧵

[Brady Seals @bradytoday]

🆕 study out. Take a 👀, it's short: 4 pages. We found that 12.7% of childhood current asthma in the US can be attributable to gas stove use. @RMIBuildings @RockyMtnInst @Sydney_Uni @EinsteinMed @IJERPH_MDPI https://t.co/4g4SDyzJA9

[Jane Flegal @JaneAFlegal]

Want to help scale responsible carbon removal, but not sure where to start? Our team has identified areas ripe for new research and innovation.🚀

[UC Berkeley Environmental Health Sciences @UCB_EHS]

EHS Researcher Dr. @sethshonkoff @UCBerkeleySPH co-leads research showing that even when gas stoves are off, they have the potential to leak benzene at hazardous levels https://t.co/K5nDLsbGEP

[Kelsey Bilsback @BilsbackKelsey]

We found that a leaking gas stove in your kitchen can lead to #benzene concentrations similar to those found in secondhand smoke. Check out our new study in @EnvSciTech! #science #airpollution #climate
