Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

This is an excellent thread that largely tracks my own experience from my time at the Club (granted, I left right before Jealous started). There is just no scenario where attempting to reckon with the organization's history and build a more inclusive vision of environmentalism was the problem.

Hey, so we have a bunch of open positions right now, working on cement, chemicals, clean energy (gosh, do we need a lot to electrify industry), and leading our Michigan work. These jobs will take you from the Central Valley in California to green cement plants in Tanzania, and beyond. Know anyone?

In our new 2025 edition of the Rhodium Climate Outlook, if current trends in policy and technology development continue, we project a likely (67% confidence) range of 2.3–3.4°C of temperature rise and an avg outcome of 2.8°C by 2100. The probability of limiting warming below 2°C remains below 5%.

"Firm Fixation" is a nice way to describe the errant obsession with meeting facility load with a single power project. Good work from @ericgimon.bsky.social and @energyinnovation.org.

We need thousands of electricians to break free from fossil fuels. Just saw the real work at @ibewinternational.bsky.social Local 242 Edmonton—union apprentices building our clean future. THIS is how we fight climate breakdown AND create family-sustaining jobs. #cdnpoli

Hmmm. Despite Laurenco's brash talk, the company has been on shaky financial ground for a bit, in part thanks to his buddy Trump's auto tariffs. Now POSCO is stepping in to help.
