If a $15 minimum wage is unfair because cost of living varies across the country, why don't we apply that logic to senators? Instead of everyone making $174,000 with Cadillac benefits, cut senator pay in half in states with a $7.25 min wage. We taxpayers simply can't afford it.

A comparatively small set of policies can get the US on a 1.5°C trajectory. (Top priority: a nat'l clean electricity standard.) Doing so will generate billions in new economic activity, create millions of new jobs, and prevent millions of premature deaths. energyinnovation.org/wp-content/upl…

For over 10 days now, around half the residents of Jackson, Mississippi have not had running water. And nobody is talking about it on a national scale. I am begging the national media to please pay attention. There is a crisis happening in Jackson.

The Senate Parliamentarian has decided that a $15 minimum wage doesn't pass the Byrd bath for budget reconciliation, so millions of working Americans will continue making poverty-level wages. A truly, truly insane way to run a country.

Here is a look at the #Texas Wind (avg over all state) for each month for last 175 years. It's the average capacity factor for each month. Our climate data suggests events like that of the last few weeks will occur ~4 more times before 2050.

Do you pay a gas bill? A portion of it every month is going to pay the lobbyists, PR firms and astroturf campaigns of an industry group working to protect corporate profits by thwarting local efforts to mitigate climate change. NPR brings the goods: npr.org/2021/02/22/967…

So many of the misleading narratives about the #TexasBlackout are missing a fundamental understanding of our electric power supply, and its mutual vulnerabilities with our gas systems. We're facing an _energy systems_ crisis, not just an electricity crisis.

Clean hydrogen will be critical to the decarbonization of economic sectors that are difficult or even impossible to electrify. Think steel or cement. America needs a hydrogen strategy. greentechmedia.com/articles/read/…

An important reminder that to have wide-spread EV's, we need a network of high-speed charging stations. Companies like @evgonetwork and @ChargePointnet are crucial moving forward for Tesla's EV competitors #EVs #electrifyeverthing #energytwitter cleantechnica.com/2021/02/04/tes…

.@JanetYellen and I know that this is not a moment, it’s a movement – so we’re turning climate energy into climate action with climate finance. It is cheaper to prevent damage than it is to clean it up. Common sense. #HistoryIsHappening Climate 🤝 Finance
