I often see people argue that clean energy is not reducing emissions, because it just adds to rather than replaces fossil fuels. This argument is deeply misguided – clean energy built since 2005 has displaced 23 billion tons. I dive in over at The Climate Brink:
theclimatebrink.com
What if the world hadn't built wind and solar?
Clean energy does not simply “add to” global energy use; it displaces fossil sources that would otherwise get built.

A familiar story for anyone who follows @volts.wtf. “The Chronicle spoke to more than half a dozen grid experts…to try to understand why Texas’s notoriously unreliable grid had a remarkably reliable summer. The answer was unanimous: solar panels and batteries.”
houstonchronicle.com
Texas shattered energy demand records this summer. Here's why the grid held up.
Texas repeatedly broke electricity demand records this summer, but ERCOT avoided emergencies as booming solar and battery capacity helped keep the grid stable.

According to AIPAC, the greatest seismic shift in US politics regarding Zionism was the election of “the squad,” meaning, the rise of DSA & its 2017 support of BDS. I’m inclined to agree 1/2
Israel, AIPAC and Difficult Questions for Democrats
The Daily This was a group of progressive lawmakers who were willing to say things about Israel, critical things about Israel.
They'd support the movement known as
BDS, which calls for a boycott of Israel until property is returned to Palestinians.
And to sort of begin to try to redefine the American Israel relationship. I mean, no one had ever gone there in this way before. You'd had isolated critics of Israel elected to Congress before, but you definitely never had a block of them in Congress, and especially ones who were young, popular, and progressive.
This was going to be a problem for Aipac. And so the question becomes, what is Aipac going to do about the arrival in Congress of this block of outspoken critics of Israel? And what if this is just the beginning?
