took my ioniq 9 on a 500 mile road trip, had to stop to charge once for 30 minutes. Never had range anxiety since.

Billionaire Big Oil executives are so emboldened by the Trump administration that they think they can just demand Senate seats now
The Trump administration and their allies in Congress are the ones standing in the way and making things more expensive. While they kept wind and solar projects off the grid, electricity prices went up 13% last year.
This is a really frank and interesting view into what it's like to cover climate change these days. This podcast has been off to a great start.
Americans are looking for more than vague pledges from a president who has continued to ban clean energy and drove energy prices up 13% after promising to cut them by 50%.
Trump continues to harm our communities and increase our bills while putting more money in Big Polluters' pockets.
Welp: ZERO takers on the Trump administration's first lease sale for oil and gas development in the Cook Inlet, Alaska. Bidding closed today with no bids.
The lease sale was supposed to spark new interest in oil and gas development in the region. It doesn't seem to be working.
Looking the other way on pesticides, pfas, weedkillers. But draws the line at ice coffee. π€

Trump is in Texas today to tout his energy agenda aka the reason our electric bills are so high.
Instead of embracing clean energy β which has helped Texas avoid blackouts β Trump has doubled down on dirty and costly fossil fuels.
When it comes to clean energy, we need to "Build, baby, build."

βNew York can fix our energy system, protect our wallets & show the nation what real leadership looks like,β writes NYLCV President in Empire Report op-ed.
The success of #CongestionPricing shows that. Next step: a just, clean #Energy system for New Yorkers & the planet.

FACT CHECK: Itβs already illegal, difficult, and extremely rare for non-citizens to vote in federal elections, and thereβs no proof of widespread voter fraud anywhere in this country.
The SAVE Act 2.0 is an attempt to make it harder for American citizens to vote. Itβs as simple as that. #SOTU
Trump's promises to lower energy prices for working families ring hollow from a president who promised to cut energy costs by 50% while instead driving them up β¬οΈ 13% in his first year. #SOTU

This week in #ClimateBeat: In the US, the very notion of public service journalism is under assault, at precisely the moment that itβs most needed. And climate journalism is a case in point. buff.ly/cM1IlKH
Water helps plants grow too but what happens if you give them too much of it?
Note she didn't mention the energy makeup of those states--what's obviously true is that states (Red or Blue) that have the most renewable energy are the ones with the lowest electricity prices. Meanwhile Trump is taking those clean options off the table. energyinnovation.org/report/clean...
Rising energy prices aren't inevitable. The Trump administration owns the increases in your electric bill.
"This is definitely not a decision based on science. The science is clear, indisputable.
LCV's @matthewhdavis.bsky.social was on ABC News to discuss the Trump administration's repealing of the Endangerment Finding, which requires the EPA to take action to reduce climate pollution.

The Trump administration is repealing the Endangerment Finding, which requires the EPA to take action to reduce climate pollution. They call it the "single largest deregulatory action ever."
This is what America looked like before environmental protections.
We can't and won't go back.
Twenty years ago, I wrote a book about how the death of coal has been hindered by two things: 1) industrial inertia 2) political corruption. I think my thesis holds up, although I wildly underestimated the depth of corruption that has surfaced in Trumpworld.
A meme from the Princess Bride. The text reads "You keep bragging about that award. I do not think it means what you think it means."
