New paper alert! With @thomasnhale and aldrick arceo, we tracked #Netzero pledges by govts and firms from 2015-23. We find a net zero ā€œwaveā€ ā€“ huge growth in pledges over time, but of varying robustness. šŸ§µ ClimateSky EnergySky GreenSky

Lots of buzz on CAā€™s latest lawsuit vs Exxon. Itā€™s not overtly framed around climate change like most other cases. Rather itā€™s about public nuisance & consumer deception -- which may be a more successful strategy in defanging #BigOiloag.ca.gov/system/files...

"After years of improvement, American public attitudes toward Muslims and #Islam have declined in the past few months, and expressed public prejudice toward Muslims remains higher than toward any other religious, ethnic, or racial group studied"

Prejudice toward Muslims is highest among all religious and ethnic groups

When it comes to climate, the Harris-Walz ticket is stacked. These two leaders are climate champions. They've pushed for clean water, cut pollution, and taken bold action. Oh, and they both love heat pumps and electric school buses. THREAD! www.theguardian.com/...

Americaā€™s landmark climate law, which turns two years old this month, has Harrisā€™s signature all over it

A lot of scam PACs use ActBlue to process their transactions. Please do not view "it's on ActBlue" as synonymous with "this is an effective organization to fund"! Again, to be safe: Donate directly to campaigns you want to fund or party committees. Here's Kamala: secure.actblue.com/donate/socia...

I've had the great honor of sitting down with our future President, Kamala Harris, to talk climate policy. She is brilliant, dedicated, hard working, and beyond qualified for the job. She is going to deliver for us on climate. Let's win this election! LFG!!!!

Absolutely stellar pair of defensive wins against Big Oil and assorted forces of evil in California, only six days apart. Nice work to all who made it happen!
