Wow. Where was the president of Cornell and did he know his car was capable of doing this on its own?
NY Times headline: Cornell President’s Car Bumps Into Students After Confrontation Over Gaza
After a debate over the war, students say the university president hit them with his vehicle. He says he was the victim in the incident.

Strong relationship here between wholesale electricity price and how close you are to a data center. We reallly need to see data centers bringing their own (clean) energy with them

What we call things reveals a lot about our priorities and biases. Graphic via @reenamahajan.bsky.social
Graphic noting that people walking are called “vulnerable road users” as are people cycling. While “vehicles” are considered neutral and normal. But what if drivers were called “dangerous road users?”

Delighted to see my alma mater @carleton.edu reporting a ~65% reduction in direct (Scope 1) emissions (v. 2008) thanks to major investments in EE and district geothermal/geo-exchange. Based on the data we're seeing in my lab that's the 3rd/4th largest direct reduction in Scope 1 for any U.S. HEI.

Over 100,000 seats are up for grabs in 2025 — governors, mayors, city councils, state representatives, judges, school boards, and more. Taking back our power starts now.

IRA policies supported 50GW of new solar capacity in 2024 – enough electricity to power roughly 8 million US homes.

A belated photo from an after-work protest last week. Rallies and protests aren't sufficient, but they are necessary! A woman leaned out of her car window to shout to me that she didn't believe anyone cared until she saw this 300-person crowd. This is how we build capacity to force a change.

And it's getting worse: Liberty Mutual (CA's fourth-largest home insurer) plans to exit the condo/rental insurance markets in 2026.

Why did Republicans win every statewide race in PA, yet Dems still held the State House? Statewide trends were driven mainly by urban areas while control of the State House is mainly decided by a handful of suburban districts – districts that came out more for their Dem. reps.
Bar chart of PA State house shift in margin 2022 to 2024 - suburban districts shifted less than half as much as rural or urban districts

Despite shifting 1% to the right, NC, GA, and MI saw more dems come out in 2020 overall
