Are you talking to Ricky H? If not he'd be a huge asset on topic. We've been doing public opinion work with him among other stuff!

Webinar on industrial electrification with Senators Whitehouse and Heinrich today.
Clean heat technologies not only slash climate pollution—they also create billions in public health benefits.
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...
We have the technologies we need to cut pollution from the industrial sector. 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...
On a new episode of A Matter of Degrees, the legendary @billmckibben.bsky.social joins the show to talk about the potential of solar power and to get inspired for @sundayofaction.bsky.social - a day of action to celebrate the power of clean energy!

Paul Tobin, @stacydvandeveer.bsky.social and I are delighted to announce our new, open access, edited book ‘Stability and politicization in climate governance’. bit.ly/45Gb6RM. It is packed full of fantastic chapters about different aspects of climate politics. Here’s a short thread. 1/
I love it!
An outbreak of sanity in TX.

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.
Ugh. This is horrible. So sorry!
Really horrible news. I'm so sorry
Democratic Senator Chris Murphy on Mahmoud Khalil.
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....
We're hiring! We are a "think and do tank" aimed at confronting the climate crisis. We are seeking a Postdoctoral Scholar in the politics of Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation to support research on public responses to climate impacts and policies across the world: recruit.ap.ucsb.edu/JPF02926
How 1776-ish of you
I think this means you are required to tell us all what to do as the overlapping set :)
Congratulations!!!!
www.foreignaffairs.com/united-state... This is by far the best, clearest and most realistic analysis of what we're in for that I've seen.
All of this from @pastpunditry.bsky.social. The crisis is not *legible*. Even politically attentive people have no idea - the media are not conveying the scope and magnitude of what's happening. It has to be made legible through political and institutional resistance, not passivity and resignations.
Initially once a year (via tax returns!) which was quite silly from a visibility perspective. Later, they switched to quarterly direct deposits. Cheques would have been better (as arguably the Trump stimulus cheques worked well!)
Also a paper in US/Switzerland showing that mild political cues erode hypothetical preferences for progressive rebate structures: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...
Yeah. We published this piece a few years ago which you probably saw: www.nature.com/articles/s41.... We have a more recent paper I can share a draft of which shows that, no matter how you cut it, ideology trumps material factors in shaping people's preferences for carbon rebates.
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.
ICYMI (I first learned about this from @prof-b-t.bsky.social's feed): turns out a governor can't unilaterally undo the will of the legislature, in this case for Virginia to be part of the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI):

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!

I never saw this. Amazing!!!
Great thread on the insanity of the current moment
