We should fully fund the nation’s water utilities with a steady stream of federal taxes.

The best takes this week are like "I knew Trump would win when I saw a 'Please recycle' sign for bottles... liberals still don't understand how the recycling sign became a type of swastika to ordinary Americans"

Very excited about this. I have been asking for years, "who is working on grid nationalization?" and getting crickets. Now we have a whole new org for public grids!

Hurricane Milton is undergoing one of the fastest rapid intensifications ever observed in the Atlantic.
It is now a 155 mph Category 4 storm, just 2 mph shy of Category 5 status.
Not a single weather model predicted the storm would strengthen this quickly.

Fossil gas plants are booming in the US. Again. In the year 2024. For AI data centers. Energy addition, not transition.
“In the first six months of the year alone, companies have announced plans to build more new gas power capacity across the US than they did in all of 2020”

Well then: Of the 400,000 acres burned in the Park fire, "about 43,000 of those acres are forests that were supposed to stay intact for at least 100 years under California’s carbon offset program," per @carbonplanorg analysis. politico.com/newsletters/cal…

This project caused a major divide in this community. Family members & lifelong friends turned on each other. There has been one huge question throughout the debate: What is the future of St. John's west bank?
That question remains unanswered.

It's been around a month since @SierraClub said the union was spreading false information about potential layoffs - and, you guessed it, since then they have laid off and locked out dozens of our members (in direct violation of our contract) as well as unrepresented staff.

Nikki Hailey in Israel scribbling "FINISH THEM"on the shells that the IDF is about to fire into Rafah in defiance of the International Court of Justice. Biden provided the shells, Republicans autograph them. The US political class is united in its complicity with this genocide.
