PLEASE HELP: I'm thinking of replacing my EV with a gas car. I've never owned one so I wrote down the 9 questions I got so far. 1. The car dealer said I can't refill while I sleep. Is that true or is there a workaround? (1/9)

This is great, Jonathan Horn is great, we have lots to learn and even more to do. Before we can listen and learn we have to earn the trust to hear these stories, because they certainly aren’t owed to us.

OKAY everyone, look here. It is time for a mega-thread of just the nastiest, shittiest, most planetarily destructive things that the Australian government has done over the past 3 yrs. There will be swears. Tears. Charts. Articles. And I'll add to it as we get closer to May 21

Always nice when the white man tells others how to feel about issues of ethnicity. Nice to see the empathy training paying off. Please get this guy outta here #auspoI

The argument that we should vote for “moderate” Liberals lest they become like the Republicans ignores the fact that they’re already there. We’re just lucky the goobers at Sky news lack the charisma of their Fox counterparts otherwise we’d be in real trouble.

Such a sad view of politics where preferences are seen as transactional and given to Clive Palmer to cling to power rather than to Parties with aligned values to further your vision for a better a country. It’s petty and we deserve much better. #auspol

are we really going to complete the set tonight? #DixonVotes

The climate election, finally. But now the work starts. Time to transform this country to a zero carbon superpower, with a just transition for those who need it most. Let’s get it. #auspol

“our ‘Peter Dutton is not a monster’ editorial is raising a lot of questions already answered by our editorial.”

Nice to see Susan Ley continuing Josh Frydenberg’s proud tradition of failing upwards from Environment Minister who achieved nothing into Deputy Leader. #auspol

kicking off #igccsummit wiyh Rebecca Mikula Wright reminding us that while ESG investing is so hot right now, that’s only because of all the hard work done over the past decades. I mean, someone had to invent the piano key neck tie.

Great to see the social side of climate change covered early at #igccsummit. Though they’re harder to measure, social factors and just transition outcomes are a massive piece of the puzzle. Let’s say it together- CLIMATE CHANGE. IS. A. SOCIAL. ISSUE.

“we don’t know what the future will look like, but we do know the direction of travel” …a reminder from Nick Crouch that progress is never linear, but when movement is value driven and long term focused, purpose can be achieved. #igccsummit

such a wonderfully different vibe with @Bowenchris addressing the #igccsummit compared to Climate and Energy Ministers of the past. Lots of applause and hope in the audience and a total absence of snark and sniggering. It’s weird.

I did a meme #igccsummit

"you’re expected not to voice your views on anything" says man voicing his views in his weekly column in major newspaper, who also has a TV show and radio program

Result: Fossil fuel demand will shortly collapse That's not wishful thinking: look at OPEC's recent move to cut oil output in defiance of US wishes. They (OPEC) know the good times are almost over and it's their dash for their last cash

"Every billion dollars we spend on offsets is a billion dollars that we didn't spend on something useful." "Spending on offsets rather than decarbonisation is about the most economically inefficient thing I can think of." @RDNS_TAI at the #ClimateIntegrity Summit.

All right, I really should be doing literally anything else with my time, but I have certain compulsions, so here's a short thread on the Harvard thing. Or actually, not about Harvard per se, because I, like most Americans, don't really give a shit what goes on at Harvard.
