[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Incredibly powerful, must-watch moment.

Thank you, @esglaude.

[Jay Inslee @JayInslee]

There are going to be at least 12 debates. There is absolutely no credible reason why one shouldn’t be a #ClimateDebate.

@JesseJenkins I've started to run a board with a list for each day of the week, next week and next month. Then I know when I've finished work for the day (no more cards!) and I can punt anything that still needs done to later.

@DanFinnFoley Looking forward to how the power/energy capacity will be broken down by technology. For instance wondering how much of the hydrogen storage salt-dome will serve fuel cells vs turbines to meet the 150k homes' demand for a year

@JigarShahDC @ComplexEvo @EltaKo7 Presumably outside a rental property. Street side charging would be a nice amenity for landlords to offer

[City of Pittsburgh @Pittsburgh]

Happy #143dayInPA.

You may have noticed a few new street signs around #Pittsburgh’s Downtown today. Forever our favorite neighbor, Fred Rogers changed our city, the nation, & the world for the better. Embrace his teachings.

Be kind. Today & everyday.

@AndrewRChabot @MassCEC Did any new tech stand out? I understand that electrolysis to make hydrogen with the option to reform to other fuels is going to win out for seasonal energy storage. And while flow batteries are competitive now for half-day durations lithium ion will eventually get competitive.

"A plan by California’s biggest utility to cut power on high-wind days during the onrushing wildfire season could plunge millions of residents into darkness. And most people aren’t ready." https://t.co/AJ0aJZc6sE

I bought a Huawei phone running full Android when I was in Bolivia 4 years ago. It was amazingly cheap (and slow) but those days of budget devices are now gone.

Google pulls Huawei’s Android license.

We’ve cooked up a mobile kitchen prototype that showcases just one of the many ways to utilize the extra storage space in the #R1T. It features 2 induction burners, a sink, 5 gallons of water storage and keeps all your cookware and utensils organized while you're out in the wild.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Abortion bans aren’t just about controlling women’s bodies.

They’re about controlling women’s sexuality. Owning women.

From limiting birth control to banning comprehensive sex ed, US religious fundamentalists are working hard to outlaw sex that falls outside their theology.

[Citizens' Climate Lobby @citizensclimate]

Wow! The @weatherchannel is really stepping it up on educating viewers about #climatechange. Check out this 2-min video that envisions a world in 2100 where we failed to take action. @JenCarfagno https://t.co/biKImmi0Gf

[James Kennedy @thatKennedy]

@AndrewRChabot Glad to hear it!

[James Kennedy @thatKennedy]

@AndrewRChabot Lazard's levelized cost of energy storage is also a reference for comparison.

[James Kennedy @thatKennedy]

@MichaelEWebber @FToddDavidson @ORNL @ENERGY @WebberEnergy This is very cool. where did you get the baseline assumptions for the rideshare fare rates? When checking a 30+ minute trip your default rates seemed quite low for Pittsburgh.

[Jesse D. Jenkins @JesseJenkins]

Let me try this:

Dear reporters, Id love to talk to you next time you're working up a story on areas I focus on. But please also call:
