Americans: it takes just a minute to submit a comment to the EPA asking them to preserve the 2009 Endangerment Finding, which finds carbon dioxide emissions to be dangerous to public health/welfare..it underpins all subsequent federal regulation of CO2 emissions www.regulations.gov/commenton/EP...

Looking for a way to do something? read the EPA reversal of the endangerment finding, and then file a public comment explaining why it is false, wrong, misguided. Your comment can be scientific, legal, or just about what the American people want..

According to a new report by those hippies at Morgan Stanley, in the past year 55% of North American companies have experienced a #ClimateChange related event that impacted their operations or business.

That's a lot!
SUSTAINABILITY AND CORPORATE STRATEGY HOW CLIMATE IS AFFECTING CORPORATES THE NEXT FIVE YEARS REGIONAL HEADLINES
SAMPLE DESIGN APPENDIX =
Over half of companies report that their business was impacted by climate-related events in the past year, increasing costs
57% of companies experienced an impact on their operations from climate-related events in the past year, with APAC companies citing a much higher incidence (73%). Extreme heat was the most common, named by 55% of those who saw any impact (65% in APAC). Extreme weather or storms rank second (53%) and are the most common in North America (57%).
Increased costs are the most common way that businesses are impacted (54%), followed by worker disruption (40%) and revenue losses (39%).

The energy provisions in the Republicans' One Big Horrible Bill are truly so bad! Who wants this? The country's automakers don't want it. Electric utilities don't want it. Data center developers don't want it. Manufacturers in energy intensive industries don't want it. 🔌💡

Huge: The Army Corps of Engineers has confirmed to me that it has halted evaluations for pending permit actions related to renewables.

The most confusing part? Its unclear why, and the EO they cited in their statement to me doesn't even mention renewable energy.
