I have an annual update on these projections vs actuals for CCS (didn't get around to it last Dec), including comparisons to fossil fuel industry and IPCC projections. This is from Dec 2024 - not just an IEA problem. Widespread across many scenarios ketanjoshi.co/2024/11/24/2...

Hey folks! Due to a series of unforeseen expenses, I need to raise some cash before royalty season rolls around at the beginning of April. Because of that, I am going to do something I don't usually do and offer paid mentoring sessions for aspiring writers.

Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power - file impeachment articles every day in the House - withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee - be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

I wonder if people in, I don't now, the Senate could take action, Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social?? What do you plan to do in response to this particular instance of rampant law-breaking?

Working with agency means never getting paid on time, even when some active work happens, there's still a long waiting period. This month and the next is definitely in a limbo for regular payments, and I can definitely use some help -- so buy something or just share to help spread the word. 💸💕

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record. They run them bc people react to them the most. If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change. It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

For a climate policy to reduce GHGs & ultimately get to net-zero, it needs to first exist, and then, not go away. A climate policy, any policy, needs to have efficiency, efficacy, equity, & administratability. A well-designed fee could achieve many of those but requires a suite of complementaries.

An absolute banger of a sentence.
