Hey @AmericanAir, I was on flt 2823 DCA to TPA 3/13 that landed in JAX for engine trouble. Grateful the pilots kept us safe! And now can’t find how to (1) get reimbursed for the rental car to get to Tampa or (2) request compensation for the 10 hr delay for a mechanical issue.

The communication from @AmericanAir at JAX was awful. A mom ran out of formula for her baby. A family with 3 kids under 5 was among those told there was no hotel availability & we’d have to sleep at the airport.

The plane coming to get us was delayed over and over again and @AmericanAir would not guarantee its arrival that night. I don’t see how there was any choice at all about renting a car. And this was all due to mechanical failure in the first place.

I'm seeing some misinterpretation of our @UNEP Emissions Gap Report. The report finds that a credible pathway to 1.5C is not *in place* under current policies/NDCs. That's not the same as saying 1.5C is now impossible. unep.org/resources/emissions…

Climate-smart policies from the #InflationReductionAct & #IIJA can create up to 3.1 million additional net jobs if clean energy manufacturing is on-shored in the US. Learn what sectors stand to gain the most jobs: ow.ly/A7v650KKfx9

How do we decarbonize industry? New WRI article on what is needed ⤵️

The U.S. can’t meet its national climate goals without significantly reducing the emissions associated with industrial production.
A new @WRIClimate article takes stock of new investments, initiatives and policies & what else is needed.

Congress passed the #InflationReductionAct, the most significant climate legislation in U.S. history that will offer a plethora of benefits for Americans and put the nation within striking distance of its climate goal.

Heat pumps are an unsung climate hero, and passing the Inflation Reduction Act would give them a big boost.

Senators Schumer & Manchin introduced the Inflation Reduction Act. It includes $370 billion in climate & clean energy investments that will lower energy costs, boost energy security and reduce pollution. If passed it would be the largest climate legislation in US history🧵

"The Supreme Court’s illogical decision to hamstring the EPA’s ability to limit carbon pollution from power plants makes it much harder for the agency to achieve its core mission to protect human health and the environment." @DLashof #SCOTUS #WVvEPA
