New oped from me. The Gavin coal plant is 50 years old, financially inefficient, and deadly. It's time to retire.

Blackstone is in danger of missing this brief opportunity to leverage this program to repurpose an old, dirty, and inefficient coal plant while delivering returns for investors, writes @alissajean of @PEstakeholder commondreams.org/opinion/retire…

It's hot. What does climate change mean for the future of sport? TL;DR - We need mitigation and adaptation ASAP. I wrote about new research on the topic... and then competed in a brutally hot triathlon over the weekend for some more personal experience 🥵

A new report shows the impact of #climatechange on #Paris2024, other athletic events, @alissajean writes: "You don’t need to only look at Olympic-level athletes to see the potentially life-threatening risks of heat on athletes." @BASIS_org @ClimateCentral theinvadingsea.com/2024/06/18/par…



The proposed merger of BlackRock and Global Infrastructure Partners is bad news for Americans, our pocketbooks, and our infrastructure. We sent a letter to FTC & DOJ echoing @SenSanders call to block this deal: pestakeholder.org/news/pesp-call… @PEstakeholder


Learned a new term this morning: "Pink slime" 😆 Pay-to-play content that pretends to be a real news source in order to achieve some corporate or political goal. Surprise surprise.... Florida Power & Light is the example used axios.com/local/tampa-ba… @yacob_reyes @sarafischer


This type of rain event is no longer a "rare" thing in S FL. Read @JohnMoralesTV for stats, but also, try and remember last spring when rain and flash floods shut down FLL airport. And how it takes less than an hour of heavy rain to flood downtown Miami....miamiherald.com/news/local/art…

Gave a heads up on this 2 days ago, indicating how floods in these parts are trending more severe, more often. And the crazies trolled cuz, you know, blue check marks & the like. And now all hell is breaking loose. I’m telling you, 20th century infrastructure isn’t built for this

Dear Elementary Teachers - We really don't need every page our kids wrote on sent home at the end of the year. The highlights in the take-home folder were enough. Sincerely, parent of a 1st grader who is sad about tossing a mountain of worksheets that she "worked so hard on" 🙃


Is there a niche that = folks working on climate change mitigation/adaption + endurance athletes? Wondering because this extreme heat has real impacts on training and outdoor events. The future of the sport could look really different. Sincerely, a hot and sweaty triathlete.

"No longer necessary" as Florida continues to struggle with the impacts of climate change and energy costs go up. As of January 2024, the average electric bill in Florida is $165 per month, slightly higher than the national average electricity bill of $142. 1/2

Workers' retirement dollars are in danger because of fossil fuel investments. Public pensions across the country are heavily invested in risky liquified natural gas (LNG) terminals. The risks are both financial and environmental. Read more:

Public pension funds with investments exposed to LNG terminals face very real economic, and emissions risks. Find out which pensions have investments in this industry and how LNG investments create challenges for pension funds to meet net zero goals. pestakeholder.org/news/pension-r…



Why does private equity matter in our work to reduce emissions and save the planet? Here's one example of a private equity firm that would rather you just ignored its fossil fuel investments: KKR

With investment in nearly 200 fossil fuel assets emitting roughly 93 million metric tons of greenhouse gasses annually, @KKR_Co’s emissions are 6,500 times higher than disclosed. The environmental and social repercussions of KKR’s investments can no longer be ignored. The need…

Let's GO. Florida is worth fighting for ❤️ Congrats, Phillip. Proud to call you friend!

Florida is ground-zero for the battle for the soul of our nation, and I could not be more thrilled to be working under the leadership of @missburneysays & @JackieLeeSays in that fight. Together, we're going to #TakeBackFL and re-elect @JoeBiden & @KamalaHarris to finish the job.



Which is more important for the Legislature to protect, Floridians or corporations? In case you had any doubt, here's the ✨ quiet part out loud ✨ re: SB 1624/HB 1645 (floridapolitics.com/archives/66418…)

Here's your regular reminder that the execs at NextEra (FPL parent company) know that renewable energy is the most affordable form of power generation, ie "least cost" 👍 This is a quote from Q3 earnings call, and you'll find similar quotes from the last few years.

I was going to cross-post something on here that I already posted on bluesky, and then I saw the burning trash dump of hateful comments that filled my feed, and I'm just like... sigh.


👏 👏 let's go!!!

My name is David Arreola. I’m a first generation American and I’m running to serve District 22 in the Florida House of Representatives. Help us share the news! Florida deserves better than what MAGA Republicans are offering: hate, division, and extremism. 🧵



Remember when we had to rewind VHS rentals before returning them? Anyway, I’m on the blue app now. Same name.
