In today’s @latimes.com, @leahstokes.bsky.social and I argue that California should finish what it started with CalSHAPE: use designated funds to cool and modernize schools - not redirect nearly $200 million to investor-owned utilities. Read our op-ed here: www.latimes.com/opinion/stor...

Contributor: Use designated money to cool California schools, not to enrich utilities
As the state gets hotter, even in winter, working air conditioning in classrooms is as essential as the lights or the roofing.

Senator John Curtis: "We must build a thoughtful, principled bill that doesn’t pull the rug out from under American innovators. Doing otherwise risks freezing investment, delaying domestic production, increasing costs, and forfeiting our energy edge and national security to China and Russia."

Opinion: Thoughtful tax credits and deregulation can secure America's energy dominance
When the U.S. government saddles our own energy production with unnecessary regulations and uncertainty, we harm both the climate and our economy

OPINION: Preparing students for a climate-changed future

A previous generation of California leaders made sure schools could keep children safe in an earthquake - it’s time to do the same for threats posed by extreme weather. Read our latest op-ed with Andra Yeghoian in @edsource.org.

COMMENTARY: Los Angeles’s climate crisis offers a blueprint for California’s schools
California has already wasted precious time. We must act now to create a master plan for climate-resilient schools.

State and local officials seem to be rushing to rethink climate policies. It's a terrible idea.
