Hey party people. My name is Dan and I’m a climate video creator. I write, shoot, and edit 👍
I currently make vids for Rewiring America about the awesomeness of electrification and occasionally put out my own stuff.
I’ll attach some of my vids below if you’re curious. So nice to meet all of you! 🙏

"Lose the future" would be a great slogan for the Republican Party right now
And somehow, the House GOP Budget bill got EVEN WORSE for clean electricity tax credits. Now requires commence construction 60 days after passage of law AND placed in service by end of 2028. Hard sunset, no phase-down. amendments-rules.house.gov/amendments/R... 🔌💡

American households could save an average of $2,240 a year on their energy bills if we keep 2 very important renewable energy tax credits: 25D (think solar and storage) and 25C (think heat pumps and insulation).
Why is this so important?

This is a really well-written social media post. @canarymedia.com, you should give your social media person a raise.
Over half of U.S. states now get more power from breeze-blown turbines and sun-soaked photovoltaic panels than they do from polluting, planet-warming coal, according to a new report from think tank @ember-energy.org
Chart: These states get more power from clean energy than coal
Wind and solar beats out the polluting fossil fuel in 28 states, from Arizona to Washington, bringing cheaper, cleaner electricity to communities.
