If approved by a majority of voters in November, Proposition 4 will catalyze a wide range of investments to make rural and agricultural communities safer and more resilient to wildfires, floods, droughts, and extreme heat. calclimateag.org/california...
Discover how California's historic $10 billion Climate Resilience Bond, Proposition 4, aims to transform agriculture, bolster local food systems, and enhance farmworker well-being amidst increasing climate challenges.
The hope is that an 🇮🇱🇨🇾 energy corridor would not only establish an additional export route and alleviate concerns by IOCs but could also catalyze development (think foreign investment, infrastructure upgrades, regional employment, and economic growth). 10/

Cool stuff, Mike. I need to figure out how to get a copy. But the title struck me, b/c it's close to a paper our team wrote, Prochaska et al: "Mobilizing manufactured reality: How participatory disinformation shaped deep stories to catalyze action during the 2020 US presidential election." (cont.)
That's why we've partnered with @cleanaircatf and @EFIFoundation to establish the Nuclear Scaling Initiative. This collaborative effort will work to address challenges and catalyze the responsible scaling of clean, safe, and secure nuclear power. https://buff.ly/3Ni4bVS
Currently, DAC technologies face high costs due to the energy required to regenerate CO2 from capture materials. Carbonic anhydrase (CA) enzymes, which naturally catalyze CO2 exchange, have the potential to reduce these costs by enabling faster CO2 absorption with less energy. (2/7)
