If you want to address climate pollution from agriculture & land use -- which contribute 22-34% of global emissions -- you need to cut emissions. Not just 'offset' it with dodgy math.

That means curbing deforestation, food waste, fertilizer overuse, and shifting diets. Period.

Bisan Owda is a journalist and filmmaker who has documented Israel’s destruction of Gaza and displacement of Palestinians day by day.

Here are the stories of five Palestinian women that the world needs to hear on #InternationalWomensDay2024 . 🧵

Excellent points made by panelists in this discussion on the dire need of grid-forming inverters in the BPS! Although there were just 150 participants, I hope peeps from #energytwitter do check out WECC and NERC resources on grid-forming inverter based resources!!

While some might get mad at the “conclusion” they really should listen to the nuances of the episode. Full of information, scenarios, and a path forward for rooftop solar and more really. I hope to see more follow up episodes and regional breakdowns as well. More of this please.

❌ No, U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez didn't post on X (formerly known as Twitter), 'We should just print the 34 trillion dollars and pay off our national debt.' The claim spread from a parody X account posing as her real account. snopes.com/fact-check/aoc…

lol when you realize that anti-DEI is synonymous with anti-Black, everything happening makes sense.

Batteries are often described as resource-intensive. With a 95% proven recycling rate and a 10yr life, over 50% of battery minerals mined today will still be in use in *130 years*. Add 5% performance improvement per cycle, and they will be delivering services *forever*. Boom! 1/2

Some good feedback. My worry is new people don’t know all the previous failure points & come in thinking “XYZ” sounds great, let’s do it” w/o context. Hardware, the grid, massive supply chains & laws of physics don’t bend like SaaS. I don’t want great people wasting time!

Our US government shitty policy in a nutshell. Both sides say they want highly skilled immigrants and yet here we are. Apoorv Bhargava should have been given an honorary green card at this point.

Breaking News: The EPA has proposed replacing all 9 million lead pipes in the U.S., the strongest effort to eliminate lead in tap water in 30 years.

Thorough and important thread. Carport solar good yes, carport solar is not better than agrovoltaics. Also agrovoltaics save water and don’t sacrifice yield for some crops. Lots of benefits and we need both (we need fewer parking lots overall though)

1/ we're firm believers that induction is the better option when it comes to cooking and the environment, but we also know there is a lot of misinformation out there - time to debunk some of those myths ...

This is important and good to see. The responses illustrate both the challenges but also opportunities to work toward a permanent solution if dialogue is done with good faith methods and quickly.
