#ShareholderRights are under increasing pressure. Proposals give investors a transparent way to flag financially relevant issues without more regulation. Protecting this right is essential to American capitalism and our free market.

When the US govt terminated the National Nature Asst, @phillevin.bsky.social + the author team were determined not to let that stop them.
They re-organized, set up an advisory committee, found funding…and now the brand new Nature Record is open for public comment. 👏🌳👏🌲

“…there’s still a lot to hope for and a lot to mourn, and those things can exist at the same time. You can be kind of heartbroken and exhilarated about climate and keep doing the work…” - @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2026/03/07/m...

Ceres CPO Steven Rothstein & National Legal and Policy Center Chairman Peter Flaherty, often on opposite sides of major issues, come together to make one point clear:
When shareholders’ voices are silenced, our capital markets suffer.

““We will see them in court, and we will win,” said @manishbapna.bsky.social , the president of the @nrdc.org “The science and the law are crystal clear, and E.P.A. is issuing a rushed, sloppy and unscientific determination that has no legal basis.” www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/c...

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

The energy transition is happening, faster than many realize. This week, I look at how clean energy is surging, where we can get it wrong, why silence on climate is spreading, and what we can do. Read the full edition for the data, the stories, and practical ways to keep the conversation going:
“The court has affirmed what we've always known: you cannot punish businesses for their investment decisions or silence those who speak about climate risk." www.yahoo.com/news/article...
About $1.2 trillion of that poured into renewable energy and power grids alone, both of which play a vital role in serving rising electricity demand from data centers.
The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Trump moves to pull the US from bedrock climate treaty, UN IPCC and other int'l orgs & UN agencies. In doing so, the US becomes the only country to withdraw from this particular climate agreement dating back to 1992 (UNFCCC). www.cnn.com/2026/01/07/c...

Today marks 10 years since the #ParisAgreement. A lot has changed—and a lot still needs to. Here are my thoughts on what’s worked and why #businessleadership matters more than ever: www.forbes.com/sites/mindyl...
I’m running for Congress because we need leaders who will fight, not fold. I recognize this moment, and I’m ready to meet it. #FightDontFold #LanderForNYC #LanderForCongress
I’m running for Congress in Virginia’s 5th District because families and workers deserve a fair shot. Costs keep rising while salaries aren’t - and MAGA Republicans are cutting food & health care to fund corporate tax breaks instead of defending Virginia’s families.

Trump’s new fuel economy standards offer relief for Detroit, not consumers
@opinion.bloomberg.com
www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s move to revise fuel economy standards will jeopardize domestic auto manufacturing, disrupt efforts to onshore critical mineral and battery supply chains, and increase costs for businesses and consumers.
