To learn more about how we can cut pollution and clean up manufacturing, join today's webinar with @heinrich.senate.gov and @whitehouse.senate.gov at 4 ET / 1 PT: bit.ly/industrial-e...

In our new report, we take a deep dive into an immediate, practical opportunity: electrifying low- and medium-temperature process heat in manufacturing food, beverage, paper and chemicals. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

- CBC has projected a "liberal government" in Canada in which means it's time for my pedantic every four year gripe with Canadian media that you cannot project a government based on seat count until they cross the majority threshold.

- Thinking about my mentor and friend Stephen Clarkson, who would be flabbergasted by "North American" politics now. But he'd feel vindicated by our 2011 book Dependent America?, which previewed how much US economic power and security depends on Canada and Mexico. utppublishing.com/doi/book/10....

- Truly utterly insane. A memory care facility!!
- I'm sorry - they are really thinking about nominating another House Republican for an admin position (Graves to FAA???). I'm sure Johnson can pass a massive reconciliation bill in the first 100 days with a 216-215 house majority, easiest lift for a house speaker ever.

- Can't wait for my native New Brunswick (pop: 775k) to become the new Wyoming and get the same number of Dem Senators as California. Lol. 10 new Canadian states would be a terrific way to break the filibuster!

- Great thread on the insanity of the current moment
- This seems like a savvy threat on California's part. Offers some market certainty for EV models in short-term while creating credible stakeholder pressure on Tesla/Musk
- Mobilization against federal retrenchment creates unexpected political coalitions. A California EV tax credit that excludes Tesla is one such example. Will be interesting to see how much states spend and do that can only happen in opposition to federal inaction. www.reuters.com/business/aut...

- A short commentary on how valuable this dataset is for advocates and public opinion scholars: wrp.lrfoundation.org.uk/news/leaders.... The data is clear: global publics are really concerned about climate change and leaders around the world should heed these concerns!
- Excited to see the LRF World Risk Poll release today. Using a module on the Gallup World Poll, this is one of the best datasets on global climate concern, covering 142 countries: wrp.lrfoundation.org.uk/publications.... A really terrific global resource on climate opinion.

- Insightful conversation about what comes next for federal US climate policy. Well worth a listen!
- Everything Alex said! This is SUCH a cool paper.

- Important new report from my UCSB colleague @paasha.bsky.social through our 2035 Initiative here at UCSB. It tackles the problem of National Oil Companies (NOCs) head-on, and what to do about this massive group of fossil fuel producers.
