Come to read about PG&E's disingenuous attempt to pull back from a zonal electrification project in Monterey. Stay for the pic of me in my kitchen :) But srsly, @californiapuc.bsky.social should require PG&E to move forward with at least some project phases, which saves $$ and gets us off gas.

The whole progressive community -- no matter what their subject matter focus happens to be -- should speak out against the anti-transgender executive order. Environmentalists. Labor. Consumer rights. Everyone.

BREAKING we're taking @airresources.bsky.social to court on behalf of Communities for a Better Environment over the broken Low Carbon Fuel Standard, which would waste billions on polluting biofuels instead of accelerating California's transition to EVs and cleaner air.

A really cool community solar pilot, although relying on hospitals to have good will doesn’t seem like a scalable solution to meet electricity needs for critical medical devices #energysky www.npr.org/sections/sho...

fascinating read on what people will or won’t give up to act on climate— as Boichik Bagels owner noted, the measure wouldn’t have threatened to put them under, but it *might* have stopped them from opening a tenth store in five years and expanding to LA.
Why did liberal Berkeley residents overwhelmingly reject a ballot measure to tax fossil gas and fight the climate crisis? In part because everyone's favorite bagel shop told them to vote "no."

I visited Boichik Bagels to learn more. My @latimes.com column: www.latimes.com/environment/...
Column: Why California's favorite bagel shop is defending fossil fuels
In liberal Berkeley, Boichik Bagels helped defeat a tax measure backed by climate change activists.
