Something I pitched at DOE was to figure out a way to fund dedicated staff to work on transition planning in communities with retiring fossil assets. I'm so excited that they pulled it off -- $3.5 mil avail (no cost share) for govs, cmty groups, NGOs

Such an important point that so many TV and online “energy experts” miss. Google the 2nd law of thermo and maybe #CarnotLimits for some background…
A common confusion is that to decarbonise, the world will need to produce the equivalent of coal, oil & gas in the form of low-carbon energy.
That's not true.
Most fossil energy gets wasted. In the US, just one-third gets turned into useful services. The rest is wasted as heat.

Awful that the climate denying hack James Taylor gets a voice on a network. Complete and utter garbage!

As our country braces for yet another major heat wave, 5 of the 10 expected hottest cities are in Texas.
Renewables like wind and solar are helping keep people cool and safe, and it’s why we keep pushing for clean energy solutions for our grid.

A PRE EVACUATION notice has just been issued for the Town of Morrison due to this fire. Residents and visitors to Morrison should BE READY to evacuate the area.
An excellent talk about the importance of planning for the midpoint of the energy transition. Read the associated paper - wires.onlinelibrary.wiley.co…
On the occasion of the @IPCC_CH Synthesis Report (coincidentally!) -- if you'd like to spend 8 minutes with me on a journey about fossil phaseout & why we need to plan it carefully & righteously (#midtransition), have I ever got a TED talk for you.
