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 Seth Shonkoff PSE Healthy Energy via grist. grist.org/energy/court-o…
It's a big day. Today President Biden signs an executive order strengthening environmental justice efforts across the government. Importantly, the order brings science, research, and data to bear to advance environmental justice efforts in new ways. whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
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 UC Berkeley UCLA PSE Healthy Energy in CNN cnn.com/2023/05/02/us/…
What a BIG day! New York state ditches new fossil fuels in buildings. In the coming years, new construction must be built with clean, electric machines. That's a big, first step. Proud to have played a small part in helping, alongside Rewiring America. washingtonpost.com/climate-enviro…
