Why the Time Has Finally Come for Geothermal Energy
It used to be that drawing heat from deep in the Earth was practical only in geyser-filled places such as Iceland. But new approaches may have us on the cusp of an energy revolution.

Nearly every panel I spoke on this year ended with the same question: "What gives you hope?"

My friends, that question expired years ago. (If you need receipts, my book Saving Us is literally a 300-page answer.)

The real question is: How are you PRACTICING hope?

Because Greta is right ..

On a basic level, I think gerrymanders are the wrong direction for our nation. We want more competition in the political arena, not less. I am however glad to see that Trump's effort to keep the gavel in Mike Johnson's hands by gerrymanders is blowing up in his face.

This week, I will be lobbying Congress along with 100's of other members of @cclusa.org to get more clean energy and transmission lines on the grid so we can accelerate away from fossil fuels. Give your Reps and Senators a call here to give us a boost.

Tell Congress to Work on Clean Energy Permitting Reform

The crazy thing is that Burgum's last job was as governor of North Dakota, which gets 36% of its power generation from wind, sixth-highest of any state. But he's just become another Trump yes man. It doesn't matter how stupid and harmful the decision is to Americans, Trump gets what Trump wants.
HUGE: The Trump administration will no longer permit any solar or wind projects on federal lands unless they produce more energy-per-acre than coal, gas or nuclear power plants.

Solar and wind literally produce less energy per acre, so simply this may just kill off any project on federal lands.

It’s amazing how every single sentence coming out of Zeldin’s mouth in defending his proposed repeal of EPA’s endangerment finding is a lie. To understand the truth, see:

The anti-science Trumpers may be planning to destroy two working satellites that provide vital measurements about carbon dioxide & climate (and data that forecasts crop yield, drought conditions, & more). They cost $750 million to make but only $15 million/yr to operate.

Why a NASA satellite that scientists and farmers rely on may be destroyed on purpose
The Trump administration has asked NASA staffers to draw up plans to end at least two satellite missions that measure carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, according to current and former NASA employees.

Great Question. So much contradiction and incoherence from Trump on #climatechange and #cleanenergy
If CO₂ is plant food and so essential to life on Earth as this administration claims, why are they destroying the satellites that track CO₂?
NASA's carbon tracking satellites are on Trump's chopping block
The satellites targeted for removal are the only ones monitoring Earth's greenhouse gases.

Obviously, we need to shut down these satellites to get this problem to go away.
The continents are rapidly drying out and the earth’s vast freshwater resources are under threat, according to a recently released study based on 20+ years of NASA satellite data.

Here are the report’s key findings and what they portend for humankind.

We’re being forced to buy more expensive, dirtier fuels because a corrupt, anti-competitive industry is in control of the levers of state.
Renewables are now cheaper than fossil fuels. Renewables are NOT why your electricity bills are going up
Prediction: as electricity costs (continue to) rise in coming years, Trump & the right will falsely blame clean energy & the quiescent US political press will dutifully amplify that message. A coherent, competent communications apparatus would see that coming & do something to forestall it ...

It’s hard to find a trend in the electricity system right now that *doesn’t* point to near-term rate hikes if not a broad affordability crisis. That’s a serious problem for climate policy, but also the American economy writ large. I wrote about it: heatmap.news/politics/ele...

@mehdirhasan.bsky.social Jill Stein lied often while accepting Putin's support that handed the White House to a guy who desired the destruction of all forms of clean energy. It was a weird deal with the devil, the one she struck.
I remember when Jill Stein told me there was no difference between the GOP and the Dems on climate change. 🤷🏽‍♂️
