Did a PhD in philosophy; now doing climate policy. Based in Austin, TX.
I'm excited to be on my way to Brazil as part of this important work. Give me a shout if you'll be in Rio next week or Belem the first week of COP and want to connect.
At #COP30, our delegation of 100+ will highlight how local climate action drives innovation, lowers costs, and creates good jobs.

Proud to stand with @govevers.wisconsin.gov, @govmlg.bsky.social, Gina McCarthy, and @mayorgallego.bsky.social in Brazil!

This is really enouraging!
Today at #ClimateWeekNYC, we announced a major leap toward meeting our collective climate pollution reduction target.

What we’re doing is working – and we’ll keep pressing forward.

I just happened to listen to a bunch of Rage Against the Machine yesterday and some Phil Ochs today, and I thought wow, we could really use some more protest music right now.

Reading this nice piece by @douglewin.bsky.social yesterday brought into focus for me an idea I've been groping toward: the green vortex is not just a domestic but also an international phenomenon.

I don't want to be overly optimistic, but the news out of Texas yesterday suggests that the political theory of the IRA may have been right after all.

This weekend I'm finding myself thinking about how, on climate (but not just climate), Trump is tearing the house to the ground, and how what we saw in Congress this week fits into that broader picture.
