We know who polluted, and we increasingly know what damage it caused.
If fossil fuel companies helped create the damage, they should help pay for it.
Thankfully, attribution science is catching up. Polluters will be held accountable in the courts.

Trump’s vision for “energy dominance” has one big problem: fossil fuels have totally lost in the marketplace.
Since 2010, the cost of solar has fallen 89%. Batteries are down 93%. Wind is down 63%. Solar generating capacity has now surpassed coal globally. Battery storage has surpassed pumped hydro. And this isn’t just happening in China or rich countries — clean electric technologies are expanding across South Asia, Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Africa. The money has noticed: global investment in electrotech is now roughly twice investment in fossil fuels.
The countries that understand that are building the industries of the future. The United States should be leading that race — not pretending we’re still in the 19th century.

Solar power and organized communities are delivering cooler classrooms, cleaner air, and good jobs — and it's just getting started.

The EPA can change a rule. It can’t make fossil fuels competitive or deny climate change.
Their actions show them to be utterly removed from reality and unable to conceive of a better future.
It’s time to brand them for what they are: ridiculous.

Trump is trying to turn America into a petro-state, and it's a strategic disaster. This deal belongs in a different century.
The energy transition is unstoppable. America should lead it, but the Trump administration can't accept reality.ft.com/content/2f88581f-4fbc…

Coral reefs are so much more than a pretty tourist destination.
They are Earth's largest living structures, and hundreds millions of people depend on them for their livelihoods.
This is a global tipping point.nytimes.com/2026/08/31/clima…

The devastation in Nepal is heartbreaking. My thoughts are with the families waiting for news and the communities facing unimaginable loss.
El Niño is here. We can’t predict every impact, but we need to pay attention.

Once again, Trump is doing the fossil fuel industry’s bidding—protecting petrochemical profits over the health of our communities, the future of our planet, and our long-term national competitiveness. washingtonpost.com/climate-e…

This is huge.
Polluting has never been free—the public has always paid. But now science can estimate how individual fossil fuel producers increased the risk of specific extreme weather events, giving courts better evidence to decide when polluters should pay.
It just got way easier to sue fossil fuel companies over climate change. motherjones.com/environment/…

MAHA is right that coal pollution harms children. But where are they on AI’s massive gas buildout?
Virtually no new coal is being built in America, while nearly 200 GW of gas is planned for data centers. Why ignore this health and environmental crisis

When disaster strikes, those with the fewest resources often pay the highest price.
Parts of Gary, IN, which is 76% Black with nearly 30% of residents below the poverty line, went almost two weeks without power after a powerful storm with 99mph winds.
It brings Flint to mind.
After nearly two weeks without power for thousands of people across northwest Indiana, Gov. Mike Braun is calling for an investigation into NIPSCO. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/ind…

I'm glad Steve Hilton is finally recognizing the corrupt hold that PG&E has on Californians, but he’s totally wrong about how to lower costs.
We need more investment in renewable energy, not less. politico.com/news/2026/08/06…

At the moment California should be accelerating its clean-energy transition, its leaders are surrendering to Big Oil.

Today, SB 79 goes into effect.
California is taking an important step toward housing affordability, sustainability, and urban vitality.
Thank you to everyone who helped shape this legislation and pushed to take on California’s housing crisis.

This week, Congress passed the biggest housing bill in decades, poised to lower costs for millions.
But Trump won't sign it.
Instead, he’s prioritizing a bill to make it harder for you to vote—and less likely for him to be impeached for embezzling money as president.
Reporter: Would you veto the housing bill?
Trump: I said I’m not signing it. I made billions of dollars with housing. I know housing better than anybody. Lower interest rates. I don’t want to hurt people that own houses either. These people, for the first time in their lives, they have valuable houses. They become rich. I don’t want to hurt them either.
