FIFA has officially issued President Trump a yellow card. If he assassinates another world leader, it’ll become an automatic red card and he won’t be eligible for another FIFA Peace Prize for 4 years.
I remember Andrew 8 8000.
Andrea was my neighbor in Dot and a good follow… oh, and the Mass Attorney General, too.
Greetings from Dot. Collected my first signature for you today.
Give a thought to aiding the audit of the statehouse that Massachusettts voters supported overwhelmingly.
There are certainly people who are too credulous of model results. But in my opinion the more significant problem is getting modelers to speak clearly about problems as non-modelers conceive of them. Then the results go nowhere.
It’s an organized and disciplined way of thinking and describing tradeoffs, constraints, policies and consequences. Very valuable whatever you call it.
For a number of years, a debate has been brewing concerning the best way to report on the indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity. Check out a new Research Commentary by @johnparsons.bsky.social on the topic:

Thank you. Well explained.
Important dive into the politics and VCs behind micro reactors.

People are right to be angry. The country is in crisis, and the country's leadership is proving terribly inept, especially Dem leadership. It's not right for that anger to be channeled as personal attacks. But as Frederick D said, when we need the rain, we should also expect some thunder.
Because his job is not to advance the body of the Democratic Party, but to protect Gov Healey's electoral org, and he sees the former as only a potential nuisance to the latter.
Age is the obvious moment of contention, but it's not the root complaint. Here in MA, the State Party chair attempted to liquidate one of the few remaining remnants of a grass root org, the annual convention. Why?
Their failure is a black mark against them as future leaders: unable to speak up for the interest of their party or their country because they wanted to preserve the easiest path for their own electoral futures.
Biden's decision to run was classic tragedy. Worse yet was the fact that almost NONE of the rest of the leadership spoke out in opposition. Polls showed the American public seriously questioned Biden's age, but no elected Dem dared address the issue honestly.
Any sensible org or business considers the age of its leadership as it plans for its future. But the Dem establishment has devolved into a Linked-In networking op for its electeds. They don't look out for the interest of the body over the success of the individuals.
There should be no place for vitriol, and none for ageism either. That said, I think we can understand the seething anger produced when egotism steps in front of the interests of the country. We've seen that in spades from Dem leadership.
So sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing the beautiful photo. Adorable.
Yes, let’s us be serious even as they’re not. Really.
Why? The point is that RGGI is a distraction. States have pursued decarb by other means. Focus there.
Yep
My conjecture…small change on the margin, and slightly lower wholesale prices. Perhaps someone has done the study?
RGGI is almost never the relevant constraint on fossil gen, but tons of academics give it attention. Here in MA we have strict quantity caps on gas gen. But we can buy unlimited electrons from NH.
Started out as a recommendation to read. Ended as a rec not to. Hmmmmm?
I have grave doubts about the chance of being an export powerhouse that doesn’t build at home.
Well said
My experience teaching at CUNY in the 1990s,too.
This was once true, but no longer.

Same as a
parent’s job, just narrower in scope.
Batteries on the grid…it’s all state dependent opportunity cost. Natural gas in storage, same.
