For the first time I've come across a residential development that claims to be climate resilient to the RCP 8.5 level. I'm simultaneously impressed by the forethought, but skeptical that you could either anticipate or afford to build against the horrors that world would bring.

Me: I just want a boring but comfortable electric sedan with a moderate range. Car Companies: We heard you, it weighs 9000 pounds and was designed primarily for active war zones.

ICYMI (as I did), the same Pennsylvania court that's going to rule on whether RGGI is a tax or fee recently ruled, in a separate but similar case, that a stormwater ordinance was a tax. Doesn't necessarily mean anything, but still a hopeful sign for the anti-RGGI forces.

The gas stove row reminds me of the time I told a realtor that I was mostly interested in all electric homes/condos. That blank stare lasted 30 seconds and was followed up up with "uhhhhh... well.... I'm not...." #electrifyeverything

I’m old enough to remember when conservatives were up in arms about the government taking away *wood* stoves, so glad we’re repeating this cycle

Hey @IRLILaw, I'm loving all the new site traffic I've gotten from Brian Lonergan using me as proof of the left's evil agenda. All the backlinks have seriously helped. Can you ask him to push for that article to be syndicated on Fox News? That would be amazing for me.

Speaking of LFP batteries, here's a new whole-home battery system that's starting at $399. That's pretty f'ing cheap! Pretty soon systems like this will be bog standard in all new homes. emporiaenergy.com/home-battery
