Do you know how many tourists I told this too when I was a teenager at the beach and laughed hysterically when they believed it? Good times

Bahsahwahbee is site of three 19th century massacres committed by settlers and the federal government against the Newe people — including one of the largest recorded massacres of Native Americans in U.S. history, resulting in the death of 525 to 700 men, women, and children.

Big clean energy news today - 10+ gigawatts! President Biden will announce $7.3 Billion for 16 electric co-ops to build or buy clean energy projects, benefitting 5 million rural residents across 23 states. First public details about the New ERA Program: whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…

.@Grist’s 2024 #Grist50 list is out today spotlighting badass leaders working to save our climate & communities. I’m honored to be on this list w/the team at Center for Biological Diversity CBD Climate. We need change makers more than ever now. #ClimateEmergency grist.org/fix/grist-50/2…

A whole bunch of environmental groups put out statements supporting this plan and calling it "a balanced approach." This could only be described as balance is if the desert is regarded as worthless. This is landscape transformation: from a vibrant ecosystem to energy colony.

2025 Top 5 public universities according to Wall Street Journal/College Pulse. 1. U.C. Berkeley 2. Georgia Tech 3. U.C. Davis 4. San Jose State 5. U.C. Merced Ya boy will be insufferable today. (Slang intentional.)

Thrilled to have collaborated with Sofie Hiltner, Geoffrey Supran, Jennie C. Stephens, Emily Eaton, & Andrew Scerri on this critical new study! We reveal how the fossil fuel industry’s deep ties to universities undermine climate action. Read more: bit.ly/FossilFUniv Climate Social Science Network

As solar panels become much more efficient, the amount of electricity that can be produced on a typical rooftop keeps increasing. Here are the numbers. insideclimatenews.org/?p=85796&previ…

I emailed BLM and they replied with an updated link that shows the final solar PEIS and the alternatives.. check out the difference between the agencies preferred alternative 3, and the final alternative. Industry got everything they wanted and more. experience.arcgis.com/experience/269…

Our new research out today in Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews reveals how the fossil fuel industry has strategically invested in universities for decades to block transformative climate action. w/ Sofia Hiltner, Emily Eaton Noel Healy Andrew Scerri Geoffrey Supran THREAD

Siri, show me what happens when the agency says they have a preferred alternative and industry and NGOs lobby and get more land for industry behind closed doors?

Dustin Mulvaney For those who haven't see it, this explains the pink & green colors. I grew up in Ely, NV, & the thought of Steptoe & Butte Valley carpeted in solar panels is deeply disturbing. Total BS that US policy isn't pushing solar onto buildings & away from undisturbed, public lands.

The Western solar plan is hitting me hard. I’m not sure how to process it, but we are still in the fight to save the Great Basin Desert. Rural Nevada should not be an energy colony for urban centers. 💔

Green areas are fed lands available for solar farm development in Nevada under the Biden western solar plan. 11.8 million acres, or 16.6% of state's land area. How much actually gets developed is an open question. The Esmeralda 7 project alone would be roughly the size of Vegas.

Great to see the amazing Dr. Rebecca R. Hernandez and #technoecologicalsynergies research featured in the New York Times… Restoring and revitalizing land and habitat with solar is the way.
