Home electricity bills are skyrocketing. For data centers, not so much. » Yale Climate Connections Data centers are consuming more kilowatts than ever, but the price they pay for that electricity has risen only a little.

Upstate New York, where I live, also gets lots of hydropower - from Niagara Falls. Unfortunately our electric bills are going up anyway... yaleclimateconnections.org/2026/01/home...

The prices of sunshine and wind have remained flat at zero.

New York State has officially adopted new regulations for the teaching of climate change across the grade span! Congrats to my CRETF colleagues who have worked so hard to make this happen, and congrats to all New Yorkers! www.nwf.org/Home/Latest-...

There is No Scientific Justification to Revoke the Endangerment Finding The U.S. EPA's decision to repeal the Endangerment Finding will limit the government's ability to regulate emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act.

As I say here, there is no scientific justification to revoke the engagement finding. In fact, over the last 15+ yrs, the evidence of how climate change affects our health has only grown. Higher risk of allergies, dementia, fertility, heart disease, and death: that’s what’s on the line. @nature.org

We've had a request to send copies of our Teacher-Friendly Guide to Climate Change to Kenya for a March 3 conference.

We might crowdfund if this is doable. Is it doable?

this is the best reframe i’ve ever seen about calling your politicians

I was alarmed when I saw this trend in electricity prices.
I bet you will be too.

Data centers are causing big increases in energy demand, but it's our bills that are rising the most. Seems unfair, eh?
