Energy-hungry data centers and the use of unregulated AI are spiking electricity costs, guzzling water unsustainably, driving more fossil fuel pollution, and worsening the climate crisis.

Tell your members of Congress: No New Data Centers! Pass the AI Data Center Moratorium Act.

Clean energy projects in NY on hold as battle over costs escalates State regulators have so far rejected a push from clean energy developers to get more money for wind and solar farms they say are impacted by Trump tariffs.

“New York can’t afford to keep gambling our energy system on private sector profits...”

If I'm doing the math correctly, Musk's big pay packet yesterday could have made each of these now-dead people millionaires instead.
He is among the sickest men the world has ever produced.

As it turns out, America prefers #democracy

Congrats to everyone who helped make this moment possible! 🌎💚

What Zohran Mamdani’s Win Means for New York's Climate Politics The mayor-elect’s approach reflects a view that is going mainstream: To succeed, climate policies may need to lose the label.

“'Climate and quality of life are not two separate concerns,' Mamdani told The Nation magazine in April. 'They are, in fact, one and the same.'”

Some scenes from last weekend’s No Kings protest with Third Actors & friends!

Simplify Solar volunteer campaign launches across the U.S. A volunteer-based initiative is collecting data on how towns handle residential solar permits with the hope of pushing local officials to cut red tape, reduce costs and speed clean energy installation...

"The Simplify Solar campaign launched by @thirdactorg.bsky.social is calling on volunteers throughout the U.S. to crowdsource information about solar policies in hundreds of towns across the country."

Beyond the solar panel Finding all the clever paths forward!

What if you powered data centers by installing heat pumps in homes? And a thousand other good ideas

Ohioans learned about cheap, reliable solar power at @thirdactorg.bsky.social Sun Day events all across Ohio.

Solar is cheaper & reliable; there's no need to frack Ohio state parks and public lands for gas and oil!
