Does anyone know what's going on with the #SAVE_Act?

#SLPC reports that it was shelved in the Senate, & #PunchBowlNews frames it within Maj. Leader John Thune's stack of current problems.

Is the bill really dead, or has it just been paused?

Where's the rest of the media coverage on this?

Are technical solutions the only things that will save us from the worst effects of climate change? No. Obviously.

But right now ANYTHING present-day you and I do that reduces greenhouse gas emissions will help future us.

Awesome guitar! It's is a bold statement.

Quick tips:
You could start with lessons if you want---but I found that you can go pretty far with a chord book first. Then take lessons.

For songs you want to play, online sources like Ultimate Guitar Tab and Songster are good places to start.

So, say this canal gets built. (setting aside the terrain challenges for now)...

The End of Range Anxiety Is in Sight Who even wants to drive more than 400 miles without taking a break to recharge — literally or metaphorically?

If they start putting out EVs with 400+ mile range, will people finally STFU about "range anxiety"?

Environmental Disaster Is Looming Thanks To “Renewable” Energy Sources An environmental disaster is looming, thanks to so-called renewable energy sources.

Steve Forbes' economic fear piece on #renewables ---which appears (surprisingly) in the number 2 slot on Google News/Science/Environment--- is weakly argued, vague, and disingenuous.
