Great to hear from Mary Nichols at my first lunch as a Center on Global Energy Policy Global Energy Fellow!

My Rhode Island pride is showing: Sheldon Whitehouse speaking at Columbia Law School today about climate change and dark money capture of the Supreme Court.

Thank you NELMCC_HaubLaw! I had so much fun representing Columbia Law School at the environmental moot court competition this week—and over the past couple months discussing CERCLA, environmental justice, and the Environmental Rights Amendment with my amazing team.

Providence is launching their Community Electricity Program! I share details in my latest Ward newsletter here: sueanderbois.com/post/community…

New York is leading on climate goals, but it doesn't have the funding to follow through. Now that I'm a NY voter: Maritza Davila, will you make sure the #ClimateJobsJustice package gets in the final budget?

Fun fact: There were 1,280 gigawatts of clean power projects stuck waiting in queues to connect to the grid as of the end of 2022. If 50% of those were built, that would be all the new capacity needed to cut US GHGs to 50% of peak levels by 2030 & be on path to net-zero by 2050.

This is the most important thing to read today. State judge and prosecutor in Georgia openly committing federal felony crimes by jailing people pretrial without attempting to meet federal constitutional standards. Shocking abuse of power. There is no evidence presented at all.

We're excited to welcome the first-ever cohort of CGEP’s Global Energy Fellows Program! The year-long program will: 💭 Challenge students to think critically 🗣️ Facilitate engagement between Columbia University students & CGEP experts ⚡ Provide opportunities to build a career in energy

Meet our 2023 cohort: Kai Salem advocates for just, carbon-free energy systems. Before law school, she advocated for ambitious state-level climate policy with Green Energy Consumers Alliance and the Environment Council of Rhode Island.

What are anti-#offshorewind groups claiming is wrong with them? Today my The Climate and Development Lab is launching a report on the discourses of delay and misinformation used by one new group here in #RhodeIsland. Useful was the DiscoursesOfClimateDelay, crankyuncles climatedevlab.brown.edu

Proud to release this with Climate Jobs Rhode Island ...they have represented workers and the state's economy, while seeking to protect our environment. Their accomplishments are truly impressive. Priscilla @riaflcio @PatCrowley401 @roles_michael looking at you.

Claps in the Center on Global Energy Policy audience for Fred Krupp’s reminder that there’s no way to get to #netzero without a drastic reduction in fossil fuels in response to GOP talking point that “the enemy is emissions, not fossil fuels.” This shouldn’t need to be stated.

There is no one better than Sheila Dormody I am unbelievably excited for all we will get done in this City over the next four years.

Big win for climate last night! Team work makes the dream work! I cried tears of joy & relief last night. We can do big, complicated things together. What’s next?

House passes shore access bill. 69-0, unanimous. "I do think this is historic," said Rep. Terri Cortvriend 🟧. Senate already passed it, now goes to the governor.

Congrats to Amanda Barker, RI State Senator Victoria Gu, District 38, Rep. Edwards, and everyone who made this happen! It makes me so happy to see RI continuing to pass climate policy. #ActOnClimate Joe Shekarchi Dominick Ruggerio

Ok energy twitter: does NYISO have real time load charts the way ISO-NE does? iso-ne.com/isoexpress/web…

Overjoyed about these five bus lines now becoming fare-free, especially the B60 which runs through our district! Proud to have supported the push to win this in the state budget this year. Thank you Sen. Mike Gianaris & Zohran Kwame Mamdani for leading this fight. It's just the beginning!

Please forward/help us find a great person. We need a great Program Coordinator for CSSN (Moved to Bluesky @cssn.org)! The network supports researchers on climate politics and obstruction. Working collaboratively with the Director (me) and the rest of the network... C'mon. brown.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/staff-careers-…
