"It is so unusual for any administration to invoke national security and be shut down by a court," a construction lawyer who works on federal contracting issues told me. "That is an incredibly low bar, and yet, they didn't clear it." #energysky #greensky #climatesky
My latest for @law360.bsky.social: Federal courts aren't buying the Trump admin’s argument that construction of offshore wind farms should be halted for national security reasons, with some judges suggesting that the government isn't making its claim in good faith. www.law360.com/articles/243...

Starting out as a scientist, I understand their disdain of being political, but if we want climate action it is the field of political science where we can make that happen not in our laboratories and journal pages.

If we want climate action, we have to get Republicans out of power!
Multiple clips of Donald Trump promising to lower electricity bills and energy prices by 50% within one year of retaking office.

It has been a year. Is your energy bill half of what it was 12 months ago?

It sucks that climate action is not well supported yet politically, but that's just the way it is.

That's why it's important for us climate action advocates to share stories like this which highlight economic benefits from climate actions. #EnergySky
