"If California's home builders were permitted to build in the state’s urban cores, more people would be able to live in areas with significantly less wildfire risk. Unfortunately, due to strict zoning regulations at the local level, that's not possible."

This paper examines conflicts of interest among ACIP members, and, as many of us immediately recognized, RFK significantly exaggerated and distorted the extent of those conflicts. He did so to justify dismissing the entire panel and replacing them with individuals aligned with

Misinformation is now undoubtedly one of the greatest threats to public health in this country.

"When we were in the caves, half of everyone born was dead by the age of 30..." -Neil deGrasse Tyson We didn't get to a 75 year lifespan by eating "organic" and drinking unpasteurized milk. We did that for thousands of years, still died by 30. We got here BECASUE OF SCIENCE!!!

Scientists at the University of Florida have created a breakthrough mRNA cancer vaccine that erased deadly brain tumors in early human trials without chemo or radiation. Tested on four glioblastoma patients, the vaccine reprogrammed their immune systems within 48 hours to attack

Yesterday, batteries supplied 27% of the power at peak demand in California. A true "energy dominance" policy agenda would recognize the massive benefits of solar + storage.

45% of of the US corn farmland goes into ethanol production. And yet if these farmers simply removed the corn and replaced it with solar it would yield about 30x the energy output.

The plot thickens. Recently I noticed Lucy Biggers, social media editor at "theFP" news, was spreading fossil fuel lobby group disinfo. Then within 24 hours Maddie R (from the same news group) released an biased interview with Steve Koonin. I dug a little and what I found was....

My god. The mayor of LA thinks 7-floor apartments should not be legal in walking distance of transit That's what it means to oppose SB79: There are no "risks". It's just un-banning homes on transit Bass may be the worst mayor in America. Certainly the worst for transit riders

Government: "We want you to make more things here." Manufacturers: "Cool, there are these tax problems and labor issues and regulatory barriers—" Government: "So we're going to make a bunch of your inputs more expensive." Manufacturers: "Huh?"

The power of perimeter block planning is more density and more usable green area. The Norrebro neighborhood (left) of Copenhagen has population density of 49,000 people/sq mi, which is more than twice as much as Lincoln Square (right) neighborhood in Chicago (22,000 people/sq

New mRNA vaccine shows promise in treating BRAIN CANCER Amazing right? An exciting development! But - Look at the responses People are against it. Because their minds have been so poisoned as to believe "mRNA is bad" Well done anti vaxxers! Thanks for your contribution

NEW | Batteries now meet 28% of evening peak electricity demand in California🔋⚡️ Not just for a single day, but averaged for all of June. We previously reported on 2024 numbers when they reached ~18-20% in June. In 2022, it was just 4%!

One acre of corn for ethanol = 25,000 miles in a Ford F-150. One acre of solar = 700,000 miles in an F-150 Lightning. That’s the scale of possibility Bill McKibben laid out on the Energy Capital Podcast. And here’s the kicker: with agrovoltaics, farmers can still use that land.

I have faith that one day the Republicans might be able to win 40% of the country's economy. Keep trying guys.

Both these Hanover and LA neighborhoods have population densities of 16,000 people/square mile. Only one provides residents with a walkable, dense, and green urban environment. The way floor area is built and zoned dramatically impacts residents' quality of life.

MAGA seems to think that wages will magically go up if you deport people. But immigration generally slightly raises wages of native workers, or has little impact. And by deporting people, you shrink the entire economy. One less worker, one less consumer, one less taxpayer.

Trump and Secretary Chris Wright are wrong. Community noted:

The difference is, "Her" is set in a universe that forked in 2018. In that universe, California passed SB 827, and Los Angeles has abundant housing. (And an express train from downtown to the beach.) In our world, SB 827 got voted down and things just kind of suck.
