While people are reading this thread, I should add one of my favorite episodes, which directly tackles the issue: the sun isn't always shining & the wind isn't always blowing. What about the intermittency of renewable energy? Everything you need to know. volts.wtf/p/what-the-sun…

Counterpoint: a steep wealth tax, combined with our ability to reign in the power of 🐂💩-spouting billionaires, will dramatically reduce all GHG emissions and biodiversity loss, 'making every single last aspect of our lives better.'

It’s really just hitting me that the US government banned TikTok because of the proliferation of pro-Palestine sentiment, but has refused, for over a decade, to do anything about the rampant white supremacy on Facebook and this website.

Our students pay a lot of money and acquire lifelong, life changing debt to attend these universities.

The least we can do is listen to them when they say how they don't want their tuition dollars spent. #divest

I have disabled students participating in the peaceful encampment/protests UConn. When cops arrived they put hands on one of my disabled students & dislocated their shoulder. This student is still there, but injured. If @uconn says there are no injuries, that is a lie.

Someone just called the massive anti-war protests happening at colleges and universities across the country right now 'The American Spring' and I ...

It may be that the college students, who learned in elementary school that the government wouldn't keep them safe from shooters or keep them safe from a pandemic or hand them a livable climate, also learned that they keep each other safe, and that no change is scarier than change

The institution will not love you back. It will also call the cops on you, taze you, beat you, gaslight you, and cancel your graduation.

The EEI climate denial playbook:
1) Push CCS for 2 decades
2) Pressure Biden admin to drop existing gas rule ✅
3) Get timelines extended for coal retirements ✅
4) Whine it's IMPOSSIBLE to meet basic pollution cuts

And we're all funding this bullshit.

For the first time in a long time things are beginning to feel the way they are supposed to feel in a country that is facilitating a genocide.

'(Muskrats) help the world come to life, even if we don’t readily notice them doing so; their diminishment would reverberate far beyond them.'

It’s funny that when push comes to shove utility and coal interests have no faith in CCS for power

Just a noticing is all

The outright police brutalization and assault on Emory students exercising their constitutional right to free speech is a disgusting display of fascism. These young leaders, many who are LGBTQ+, deserve the right to assemble and protest in peace without fear of state violence.

I’m increasingly convinced that stubborn old climate people pushing tired ideas is nearly as big a threat to progress as incumbent fossil fuel interests

i wrote about student organizers calling for divestment from both israeli apartheid & fossil fuels, & how these two demands are fusing into one 'clarion call'

truly I am CACKLING laughing at this Fox News paragraph about the 'massive growth' and 'shady funding' of Hot & Toxic powered by Gas Leaks

The oil and gas industry spends this much on ONE salary for their lackeys

Yes!! Welcome back!!

Proving once again that you can absolutely throw air horn into serious conversations.
