Congress needs to know: voters overwhelmingly support clean energy incentives. SEIA and our members @EdpRenewables, Primergy Solar, @SolarEdgePV & @onegoodleap visited Capitol Hill last week to share the data and stories behind America's solar and storage growth. WATCH👇

It was a real honor to speak with @johnpodesta on @Poli_Climate to mark the two-year anniversary of the IRA. With at least 334 related projects announced worth at least $126B - the IRA is “catalyzing a clean energy boom” Podesta tells us. Listen on Political Climate wherever you…

On the two year anniversary of the Inflation Reduction Act’s passage, the hosts are joined by veteran Democrat John Podesta, a key player in crafting the IRA who currently serves as senior adviser to President Biden for clean energy. Listen now: latitudemedia.com/news/political…

The media has relentlessly pursued the issue of Joe Biden dropping out of the 2024 presidential race. If Donald Trump wins, the media will have been complicit in their own demise, because Trump will destroy the free press.

Golf courses: use 2.08 billion gallons of water per year on average, harming desert landscapes & native ecosystems. Javelinas: maintain a balance in their ecosystem, aerating soils, dispersing seeds and are a good food source for pumas, jaguars & coyotes. #TeamJavelina

Come along with me on my carnage (I mean course) check this morning. What should be one of the most beautiful golf courses in the country is being destroyed by herds of javelina. If anyone has a contact in AZ state govt that can help us find a solution please pass it along.

NYC's one-hour rainfall record stood for 150+ years. It has been broken three times in the past two years. We are in a climate emergency.

The previous, previous 150-year-old hourly rainfall record in Central Park has now been broken three times in 2 years. (1.94" in Henri-2021, 3.15" in Ida-2021, and now 1.96" in 2023).

This is why climate change is not "linear" — why it's not a slope, but a series of cliffs. NYC infrastructure is designed to handle about 1.75 in of rain per hour. Today's rain averaged about 2 in. Only 1/4 inch, that tiny increment, overwhelmed most of the system.

The largest city in the US is currently underwater. Make no mistake, this is climate change.

Burning fossil fuels warms the air. Warmer air can hold more water vapor. More water vapor creates heavier rain. This is what climate change looks like. We are in a climate emergency.

111 years ago today Knowledge alone isn't sufficient to ensure good decision-making, because governance isn't about information. It is about power and influence. We need policies to be informed by evidence and to ensure scientists have credibility
