New: Driving EVs vs. gas light-duty vehicles over next decade can enable AZ state & local governments to save over 1M barrels of oil; reduce GHG emissions by same amount as produced by 81,000 typical cars in a year; + more! nature.ly/3HrbImc @ArizonaPIRG @FrontierGroupUS

Replacing retiring light-duty trucks, SUVs & vans in Arizona’s state & local government fleets with comparable EVs can save taxpayers $100M. Learn more: bit.ly/4luY0g3 @nature_arizona @FrontierGroupUS @AzCities @AZCounties

Curious about the role that hydrogen might play in our energy future? Sharing a new whitepaper that our partners at @FrontierGroupUS put together. frontiergroup.org/resources/…

2022 data shows that 50 facilities emitted more greenhouse gasses than any single state but Texas.
The #Top50ClimatePolluters released 7% of the U.S.’s total emissions. Fossil fuel power plants top the list.
Analysis from @FrontierGroupUS: frontiergroup.org/resources/…

A more succinct way of putting what I said to @jholz__ is that tying clean energy to fossil fuel expansion is like hitting the gas while riding the brake. Maybe you move forward without skidding out. But you're sure to leave a whole lot of smoke behind. heatmap.news/politics/permit…

Rooftop solar in New England out here crushing it during this week's heat wave. "It" being your mid-day summer peak.

Grateful to have been part of this excellent panel w/ state and local policymakers from IL, GA, MD, NJ and TX to release our new report and share some of the exciting work happening around the country to speed the deployment of rooftop solar. frontiergroup.org/resources/…

Excited to share that today @EnvAm is releasing a new report – Rooftop solar on the rise: Small #solar projects are delivering 10 times as much power as a decade ago. Key findings in this 🧵 1/9

“Antibiotic sales to meat producers continue to increase despite efforts that the FDA has made,” @LouisSokolow @FrontierGroupUS, told Vox. “The status quo... is not enough to protect people from antibiotic-resistant bacteria.”

Good news for the climate and great news for air quality and public health.
Our 2024 #STEO forecast:
Combined #electricity generation from wind and solar will surpass generation from coal in the United States for the first time on record. #RenewableEnergy #STEO

One trend in the projects we've highlighted in recent years: rebuilds.
Bridges and highways built in the first half of the 20th century need to be refurbished or replaced, but we're not talking enough about what to replace them *with.*
NEW: The eighth edition of our Highway Boondoggles report on wasteful and destructive highway projects is now out. See which new projects made the cut, and catch up on the status of boondoggles from years gone by. frontiergroup.org/resources/…

Proud of the work my @uspirg & @copirg colleagues inc. @nProctor & @dannykatzbc have been doing to make sure farmers, hospital technicians & all of us with #cellphones have the #RightToRepair. Great piece feat. Nathan from Barry Petersen @CBSNews.

Why do climate advocates prioritize stopping fossil fuel infrastructure? In part, because fossil fuel production, transportation and processing *is itself* a major source of GHG emissions regardless of where and how the fuels are used.
In November 2022, a single "super-emitting" event in PA released enough gas to effectively erase emissions gains from about half of the 656,000 electric vehicles sold in the US last year.

.@FoxNews just posted a story about how nearly 80,000 gas cooktops are under voluntary recall for gas leaks, fire hazard... if you're looking for another reason to consider #induction, here's a helpful guide from @uspirg to #getoffgas pirg.org/edfund/resources/ma…

My family regularly repairs our stove, replaces our cell-phone screen when they crack, patches our favorite pants, etc... Farmers should be able to do the same with their tractors, combines and other equipment.

The No Surprises Act protects you from MOST out-of-network medical #surprisebills, with a GLARING exception: ground #ambulances. Great story including
@PatriciaKelmar @uspirg from @annawerner @CBSMornings about how this affected a family w/a newborn. bit.ly/3R09Frl

Time to put a stop to ambulance #surprisebills. We are working with families like Baby Theo's to win federal protections from out-of-network charges for lifesaving transportation.
