Democrats May Believe Climate Change Is Real. They Don’t Act Like It. Terrible news about the likely collapse of a profoundly important ocean current shows the limits of liberal rhetoric about “solving” climate change.

WE THE PEOPLE, not the Data Centers!
Today we're protesting outside of Data Center World- an elite tech/AI industry conference held in D.C.

We demand a moratorium on all new data centers.

Communities are taking a stand against the techno state's pollution, greed, and lies! Stay tuned for more

We demand a moratorium on all new data centers. The tech oligarchy is building ever more data centers to fuel the AI bubble, worsening climate change, for the sake of greed.

AI is scamming artists and dissolving learning. DOGE, Pallantir, OpenAI surveil us, deport us, and kill w/ drones + big data.

Today a coalition of orgs are marching on D.C. techno elite, with stops at Meta, Open AI, and Microsoft. The Technostate tour ends with a protest outside Data Center World a major AI conference.

Each data center may consume a city's worth of water and electricity – mostly generated by fossil fuels.

#FERC is #Rubberstamping #Methane 4 #AI #DataCenters 4 #FossilFuel & #Tech #Oligarchs

we the people all the people need to #Organize against this

please, an early #EarthDay #Action, participate in our #EarthDay gift of hope to @ferc.gov,

"The history of liberty has largely been the history of the observance of procedural safeguards" Judge Frankfurter

Trump supporters are now talking about removing the authority of the DC Circuit Court over FERC decisions.

"a pipeline developer should not be able to begin the process of condemning private land before the owners of that land can go to court to challenge the certificate." Richard Glick (Former FERC Chair)

In October FERC stripped rules stopping construction from starting before due process is complete.

"[FERC] has twisted our precedent into a Kafkaesque regime. Under it, the Commission can keep homeowners in seemingly endless administrative limbo while energy companies plow ahead seizing land and constructing the very pipeline that the procedurally handcuffed homeowners seek to stop" Judge Millett

At the Nov Federal Energy Regulatory Commission meeting, BXE dressed as judges and read actual statements from the DC Circuit Court of Appeals- condemning FERC's 'kafkaesque regime'- fast tracking fossil fuels over due process.

Trump is deregulating dirty energy, but the Circuit Court will prevail!

Keep Going Senator Cory Booker! Add your name to the petition to thank Senator Booker and urge him—and other elected officials—to keep speaking out on behalf of the American people!

Once you establish that people can be punished because the administration doesn't like their speech, expanding the bounds of who can be treated that way becomes inevitable.

Report: Regulated utilities spent $2.2 million on lobbying, $4.5 million on advertising in Maryland

pirg.org/maryland/fou...

POLITICS OF POWER II: Gas and electric utilities are in a unique position in which the state has direct control over how much profit they are authorized to deliver to their shareholders.

MD electric and gas utilities spent more than $2.2 million to lobby on nearly 70 pieces of legislation in 2024 according to a white paper released today by Maryland PIRG

🐎Whoa Whoa @govwesmoore.bsky.social @senbillferg.bsky.social🐎

in Texas developers are walking away from a $5 billion subsidy for gas plants (high costs and equipment shortages) and clean energy is killing demand growth without subsidies

C is not where we need to be

D and worse is where we are going when we start building new #Methane generation

A state-backed report found coal dust across Curtis Bay. CSX isn’t convinced. CSX argues that many of the methods deployed by the community’s researchers, including low-cost air quality monitors, tape strips and statistical models, were flawed.

NZ’s glaciers have already lost nearly a third of their ice – as more vanishes, landscapes and lives change Snow and ice loss warms the land surface and air, setting off a feedback loop of further ice loss. This destabilises the landscape, with potentially hazardous impacts.

New Zealand ranks third globally in the proportion of ice lost from glaciers. Almost 30% of ice volume has melted during the past 24 years; almost 300 glaciers have now vanished completely theconversation.com/nzs-glaciers...
