🇺🇸 President Trump made America energy independent🛢️💪
The Biden administration sabotaged that achievement.
Come November 5, 2024, America will reclaim its independence.

1/ For the first time in nearly 70 years, the United States became a net energy exporter, unleashing oil and natural gas potential.
America became the world's number one producer of oil and natural gas! 📈🌍 #EnergyIndependence #USA
One of the biggest challenges for #solar and #wind is integrating more renewable energy into the power system. How can we do this effectively? #renewableenergy #cleanenergy
To encourage the buildout of renewables, we need strong financial incentives. Finding the right mechanisms is crucial for a successful energy transition. #renewableenergy #financialincentives
Impressive! #Denmark consistently meets 85% of its weekly energy needs from #renewables. They are leading the way in sustainable energy production. #cleanpower

#ClimateChange is a natural process that occurs over 1000s of years. The reason they say #GlobalWarming is wreaking havoc is due to the human caused CO2 increase. CO2 is necessary for plants & trees to produce food. Due to excessive deforestation and burning of fossil fuels… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Dies führt zu etwas, was die Autoren “Super Power” nennen:
Das System produziert deutlich mehr Energie als das derzeitige. Dieser Überfluss führt zu quasi-null Grenzkosten am Energiemarkt in nahezu alles bewohnten Gebieten für die meiste Zeit des Jahres.

Let's start by calling this lawsuit out as astroturfing in it's purest form. This a faux concern that contradicts the actual science about threats to whale populations in our oceans. Get ready for a 🧵. We're coming in hot. #energytwitter 1/

Thanks to outstanding reporting from @curious_founder we know this Nantucket group is being backed by professional fossil-fuel-funded astroturfer David Stevenson. It's a cynical attempt to stop the 1st commercial #offshorewind project in the U.S. 2/

Here is my take on #COP27 outcome(s) on #climate #mitigation based mostly on fieldnotes from COP, focussing on #FossilFuels, #JustTransition & #equity/ambition dichotomy.@TheIndiaForum @girmanipal @CentreMarcBloch @FU_Berlin @NavrozDubash @ClimateDiplo 1/8
theindiaforum.in/climate-change…
theindiaforum.in/climate-change…
I argue, "Despite alarming evidence about the pace of cc, #COP27 failed to raise mitigation ambition. While the 1.5°C limit was salvaged in the end, the lack of consensus on fossil fuel phase-down/phase-out scuttled the possibility of meaningful action in the coming years." 2/8
Not only are #industrialized countries' mitigation commitments grossly insufficient to meet the 1.5°C limit, their efforts to sidestep their pre-2020 commitments, Paris decisions & delink developing countries' mitigation efforts from #climatefinance dilute #equity. 3/8
Picture of the Week: Speed of change around #energytransition is accelerating. Last year the @IEA projected that #renewableenergy installations would be 1800GW over the next five years. Now they are saying that it will be 2,400GW which is the installed capacity of #China.
Why is the #energytransition accelerating:
1. Geopolitics - #Ukrainian crisis has forced #Europe to accelerate #decarbonization. It has also been a wake up call for #China who is a huge #energy importer.

@Sammy_Roth there is a hard reality here. 1) Still need 40% more #CleanEnergy fast bcuz climate breakdown already here. 2) @californiapuc proposal will send rooftop #Solar in a downward spiral #SaveSolar 1/4 latimes.com/environment/re…
3) Rooftop #Solar w/ battery is fastest way to accelerate clean energy. No land fights. No lawsuits. Shovel ready project w/ experienced industry. 4) If this proposal is approved on 12/15 we lose this solution. We don't get to 100% #CleanEnergy by 2045. #SaveSolar 2/4
Why would @californiapuc still consider such an extreme proposal bcuz if this passes they destroy this key part of the solution to #climatechange. @AirResources and @CalEnergy agree rooftop solar is critical to get to 100% renewable. #SaveSolar 3/4

We start with a talk by SFI President David Krakauer:
"Would anyone care to guess why we're so GOOD at building transistors and so CRAP at designing drugs?"
"This thing [points to transistor] lives in a centralized system. This thing [points to cancer drug] lives in US."
"Would anyone care to guess why we're so GOOD at building transistors and so CRAP at designing drugs?"
"This thing [points to transistor] lives in a centralized system. This thing [points to cancer drug] lives in US."
"I'm going to pick on economics, because we like to do that at SFI. 'Ooh, look at that cover! So techy. Global, heat maps...' But here's 'Networks' [in the textbook]. THAT'S IT. Here's '#ComplexityEconomics.' NOTHING."
“Solar is the cheapest form of #EnergyGeneration on the planet, unsubsidized. Solar is the cheapest source of #energy in history. Nothing else is as cheap as #solar — today.”
“Solar is so cheap that the total costs are lower than just the #OperatingCosts of #coal, #nukes, #oil, or #gas generation… that’s today! Even if you get that gas #PowerPlant for free, the costs of running that power plant are higher than all the costs of #solar.”
“For purely economic reasons, #solar is already disrupting everything else.”
STATEMENT from #WhiteHouse PLEASE read!>>Congressional Republicans have laid out their mega MAGA trickle-down economic plan clearly. Their economic plan will raise costs and make inflation worse. Their five part plan includes:

A Picture tells a 1,000 Stories: This one show how #China dominates the production of key #cleanenergy technologies such as #solar, #wind, #batteries as well as the key #commodities that go into them.
I am thankful for the #Chinese and their great entrepreneurs for ramping up production as they have helped bring the costs of these #technologies down substantially.
#China has understood early the huge growth opportunity with these technologies and thet have also understood the strategic importance of #cleanenergy and supported their companies along their growth paths. Meanwhile, back in the #US and #Europe….well the picture says everything
For the first time in its history, the @IEA sees #fossilfuel demand peaking across all of its projections including the “business as usual” (STEPS) scenario. What does it mean for geoeconomics & geopolitics of the global #energytransition? A🧵1/13 iea.org/reports/world-…
The dependency on #fossilfules is a risk to economic resilience & energy security inherent to the currently dominant economic models. High #coal, #oil and #gas prices have knock-on effects beyond energy systems reliability & fuel the global #polycrisis. 2/13
#EU, #UK, #Japan and others embedded a fatal vulnerability into their growth models as they bet on boosting #gas intensity of their economies post Global #Oilcrisis in the 1970s. Now they are forced to pay a high price for this oversight. 3/13

There is no evidence that lower taxes will yield higher investment or growth.
But we know that lower taxes will reduce support for those that need it the most, and deprive public services on the verge of collapse of much needed investment.
