One ~182km x ~211km solar thermal plant could provide all of America’s electricity, including a fully-electrified land transport sector.
100% clean power from just 0.39% of U.S land.
That’s why renewables are constantly under attack from the fossil fuel industry and their paid mouthpieces.

Before changing sports and America, Jackie Robinson served as a 2nd Lieutenant in WWII with distinction. Yesterday, the Defense Department erased him from history. DOD ought to be SUPPORTING our vets, making it easier for them to afford a home - or a carton of eggs - not disappearing them.

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away.
They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

I’ve had a lifetime of disagreements with John McCain (who died in 2018), but this interview from 2014 aged incredibly well. It was his Nostradamus moment. He nailed Putin.🎯
I have no doubt he would have “done a Jim Jeffords” and defected from today’s Republican party. vtdigger.org/2021/05/23/w...

If I were Canadian PM I would immediately:
1. Create a new $15B science fund
2. Offer any credentialed US scientist funding for lab startup and replacement of NIH grants if they move to Canada
3. Immediate permanent residency
4. Citizenship after 2 years
Overnight a science superpower
