my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

This is like investing in the very best buggy whip factory when people are transitioning from horses to cars. Canada needs to look to the future. How much could $30 billion invested in green industries support EV development, wind and solar?

This is a The Hub podcast that interviews Peter Terzakian, a pro oil economist.
Peter estimates that it would cost up to $30 billion to build the pipeline. That is the cheap part, it would cost $100 billion to build the production capacity.
A few ways, IMO,

Is a new Alberta oil pipeline actually possible?

Garcia: It’s really shocking for him to essentially lean into this possibility of a pardon. And we know why that’s the case, right? He wants to control what she says. He wants her—someone who has a ton of information on what actually happened—to perhaps… omit memories she might have of the president

At it's peak yesterday, wind and solar provided 135% of California's power needs. Yes, you read that right, it had enough to export it's energy to surrounding states.

But when big oil and gas donate hundreds of millions to Republican political campaigns, that doesn't matter, only the grift does.
