99.7% of EVs will never need a battery replacement.
Petrolheads can keep parroting “what about the battery?” all day.
The real-world data says otherwise.
Tracking thousands of EVs built since 2022: Just 0.3% have needed a battery replacement (outside recalls).
That’s 99.7% still running fine.
Turkey will use its role as host of this year’s COP31 climate summit to boost clean energy adoption.
"During public appearances and in interviews, local officials have mentioned that gun violence is a familiar experience in Shreveport, breeding its own kind of indifference." Resist that.
4 Democratic members of the House have died in office since this Congress started in January 2025. (That's roughly 2 percent of the Democratic caucus elected in November 2024.)

PFAS “forever chemicals” have been linked to contaminated water, cancer, and decades of harm — including in communities like Warminster. Rep. Brian Munroe is right: it’s past time to ban them in firefighting foam and protect the people who run toward danger for all of us.

I’ve read, commmissioned or been part of many studies like this one, and the results are ALWAYS the same — low density suburban development is incredibly expensive for everyone, and doesn’t come close to paying its own way. It needs to be heavily subsidized by denser, mixed-use areas.
Sound fair?
GERMANY JUST INTRODUCED “DOG PARKING” OUTSIDE STORES
Supermarkets are now installing climate-controlled, ventilated pods where you can leave your dog safely while you shop.

Brutal heat & drought here in the Shenandoah Blue Ridge. This is the most extreme spring I have experienced as a gardener. We’ve had to hold off transplanting in fear of plant killing temps. When scientists say the climate crisis is a global food crisis these are the conditions they’re referring to.
After big dams on the upper Klamath River in far northern CA were removed in 2024, Chinook (king) salmon migrated upstream for the first time in 100+ years--and now they have hatched.
Hungary’s new Prime Minister Péter Magyar just gave the world a masterclass in political courage. It’s time we do the same in America. In my latest Substack I break down what real courage, and how we uproot Trumpism for good, could look like from my POV.

As Trump’s war in Iran causes energy prices to spike, his administration is paying a French company $1 billion to NOT build offshore wind that cut Americans' electric bills. I’m urging Senate Appropriations to prevent his use of taxpayer money to block needed clean energy.
Hungary just elected a new PM who wasted zero time — he shut down state propaganda, called out the corrupt officials by name, and started the reckoning on day one. It made me want to write down exactly what that should look like here. So I did.

For the FIRST TIME EVER, renewables provided more electricity than natural gas in the U.S. for the entire month of March 👏🏼 👏🏼
In spite of relentless attacks and setbacks, clean energy is showing up and doing its thing. Imagine if we scaled it instead of derailing it.
“The term ‘climate crisis,’ which carries with it a more urgent connotation than the more familiar ‘climate change,’ has nearly disappeared from media lexicon.”
With 150GW solar, India achieved its target of having 50% of its total installed electricity capacity from non-fossil fuel sources in June 2025, reaching this milestone 5 years ahead of its original 2030 deadline set under the Paris Agreement www.pv-magazine.com/2026/04/10/i...

Every once in a while, Trump keeps his promise. He promised big fossil fuel companies that if they gave him $1 billion they would make back many times that much.
