An awesome story about how solar microgrids kept the power on during Puerto Rico's latest blackouts.

This is bottom-up, power-to-the-people shit. Get excited!
Could Microgrids Be Puerto Rico's Answer to Endless Blackouts?
Meanwhile, feds redirect $365 million away from solar toward grid fixes

Curtail of migrants rights, marines in LA, Palestine, definition of who is a 'woman', rampant transphobia and anti-trans legislation, occupations, genocides, policing of school & uni curricula transnationally ...

Border and Rule is available for free download!

I wrote a book spanning ICE & borders, Palestine & policing, colonialism & global fascism - in service to internationalist struggles.

I can no longer travel to US, but this book (as well @silkys13.bsky.social & @micahh.bsky.social 's) can come to you

Workers in the oil & gas sector increasingly face dangerous working conditions brought on by extreme heat. The Biden administration issued a rule mandating that, when temps exceed 80F, employers must provide water & rest breaks.

The O&G industry is lobbying Trump to reverse the rule.
Heat is killing oil workers. The industry is trying to kill a rule for that.
Opposition to a planned rule to limit heat deaths comes as oil and gas workers face increasingly dangerous conditions.

Political maps hide volumes too. Those extreme danger zones don't disappear at the 49th parallel; we are interconnected on turtle island. If you haven't read @johnvaillant.bsky.social's incredible book on the Ft Mac wildfire, Fire Weather: the Making of a Beast, do. It is beautiful and terrifying.
