L’Argentine, la Bolivie et le Chili détiennent plus de la moitié des réserves d’une ressource décisive—et sont désormais tous gouvernés par la droite.
Donald Trump a-t-il un plan pour sortir de la tenaille chinoise ?

Just knocked out episode 1 while running and was engrossing enough to make me almost forget that I was running that long
“The relative shares of primary energy sources may rise & decline; but in absolute terms, the pile of material stuff used to harness those sources grows & grows, as does the increasingly material-intensive consumption they enable.”

Spanish model: invest in renewables, welcome more immigrants, oppose US imperialism, orient toward China
How do we navigate the tension between the green transition's need for lithium and the environmental impacts of its extraction? @triofrancos.bsky.social unravels the question by surveying mining sites, the communities surrounding them, and supply chain decision makers inequality.org/article/thea...
In the second episode of After Order, Alameda’s podcast series with Macrodose, James Meadway speaks to Thea Riofrancos, author of Extraction: The Frontiers of Green Capitalism, about the new frontiers of extraction // @macrodosepod.bsky.social @triofrancos.bsky.social
Asia was supposed to be an enormous growth market for LNG.
Not anymore. Shortages, spiking prices, massive uncertainty. Asia is moving to renewables instead

So glad you’re enjoying it — and hope the repair happens quickly in the meantime!
Reading @triofrancos.bsky.social’s Extraction today - an incredible book and an enjoyable read whilst my (the landlord’s) boiler gets replaced
did someone say everyone can get electricity?! and it can be clean?! and it can be public?! 👀
“There is no reason to choose between confronting the affordability crisis afflicting working and middle classes today, and building a more climate safe and resilient future. We must do both.”
Nationally, polls show that the majority of voters want their elected officials to address the climate and cost of living crises together—and they believe it is possible
Centrists tell us we have to choose between economic populism and climate ambition. They're wrong. With *green economic populism* we can tackle climate and the cost-of-living crises together.
Today @cplusc.bsky.social is launching a new research and policy agenda to move us forward. 🧵

We're staring down a brutally hot summer and energy and food shocks and cost of living crisis that climate change intensifies. There's endless money for war. But voters want policies that address the real threats to their security. At @cplusc.bsky.social, our new agenda has the solutions🧵
It is time for a working class climate strategy. A better world is possible—and necessary!
Today @cplusc.bsky.social launches a working class strategy for tackling the affordability & climate crises. The climate‑cost nexus is already costing billions every year, and it will get worse the longer we don’t act on climate; we also must address working peoples’ immediate economic problems
Energy prices are up and heat waves are coming soon.
We need a new strategy to bring down costs, rebuild the state, and redistribute power, all while taking the climate crisis seriously as an economic disrupter.
@cplusc.bsky.social is launching a new framework for how to get there! ✊🛠️🌎
Extreme weather is driving up the cost of food, electricity, and home insurance. Tech barons and fossil fuel execs are exploiting communities. @cplusc.bsky.social new strategic framework/agenda charts a path forward to rebalance power for the working class and address the climate crisis at scale.
The affordability and climate crises are inseparable. @cplusc.bsky.social's new strategy to put the working class in charge of climate & economic transformation is an essential intervention to build towards the economy we need and deserve. Honored to get to work on this with the CCI team.
If you read one thing this week about the climate and energy crisis – and what we can and must do about both – then I highly recommend this from @cplusc.bsky.social. I'm on my way to New York to support the launch tonight!
