As someone who previously worked in a community-facing role to promote home electrification, these are very powerful findings. It's important to consider equity — and even make it the core — in our approach to navigating the electrification transition.
Few studies have examined what drives heat pump adoption disparities.
To address this, a new study examined heat pump adoption and found that differences in building age explain a much larger portion of the racial disparity in heat pump use than income and homeownership: doi.org/10.1016/j.er...

Air pollution continues to be a major threat to public health across the country, and it is only exacerbated in the heat (which the U.S. Midwest and East Coast are currently feeling the effects of). This new @ctrglobsust.bsky.social highlights the impacts of policy rollbacks on this moving forward
How does rolling back climate policies like the EPA power plant rules impact US public health?
A new CGS report found federal rollbacks can substantially worsen air quality and health, resulting in 22,800 additional deaths by 2035: go.umd.edu/ImpactsofFedClimateRollbacks
