Hello #climate #activists
If you have a few minutes today, please send an email to ask Congress for their support of the new “Prove It Act of 2023” bit.ly/3rrzeXM
This legislation is a critical step to identify the #carbon intensity of specific products being imported into the U.S. such as oil & gas, steel, cement & aluminum
Thank you!

We completed our monthly meeting this weekend with a great presentation & status update regarding the recent #Texas state legislative session impacts on the #TX Electric #Grid & Clean #Renewable Energy.
We’d like to thank our members & guests that attended.
Please email Congress & tell them we need more permitting reform: bit.ly/3O0k1ps

#ICYMI "Lobbying never looked so good" !
This is our CCL family photo from our June national conference & lobby day event in WDC, for #Climate Advocacy
Our volunteers had an incredible 436 bi-partisan lobby meetings on Capitol Hill. That’s 160 House Republicans, 182 House Democrats, 45 Senate Republicans, 46 Senate Democrats, and 3 Senate Independents

#ICYMI "#Uruguay (South America), hot and dry, adds salt water to public drinking supply"
Imagine your worst nightmare about #ClimateChange & this might be it
Running out of drinkable water & having to start mixing salt water with your regular water, in order to have enough to drink

One of the most critical aspects of enabling #RenewableEnergy projects to move forward is what we refer to as #PermittingReform
Government issued permits are required for all types of projects & with the known bottlenecks & delays that occur, these projects are being blocked
The solution: CCL volunteers are lobbying our elected representatives to discuss this issue & to build support for streamlining the process

"US #Shale Production Is Set For A Rapid Decline"
An interesting read on the economics of #oil with a forecast for a large production drop leading to much higher prices
The result should create demand destruction & greater incentive for consumers to speed-up their purchase of #EV electric cars
In terms of #ClimateChange this is good news to help reduce the use of #FossilFuel

Here's a great idea to accomplish 2 really good things at the same time:
-Increase funds for #Education
-Help solve #ExtremeWeather & #ClimateChange

In 3 yrs this #solar installation at a high school in Arkansas turned the district budget from a $250K deficit to a $1.8 million surplus. They're using the surplus to increase teacher salaries.
We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

"#BigOil is manipulating the way you think about #ClimateChange "
Take "carbon capture", "the best way to reduce CO2 is to stop burning #FossilFuel - not to spend billions [on] a new industry"
When you see "a red herring fallacy, call it out by name - 'Oops. That's a red herring' "

"#Methane Mitigation in #Texas Could Create Thousands of Jobs"
However, "#TX officials have vowed to oppose regulations aimed at reducing methane emissions"
"But a new report says plugging leaks & upgrading wells is poised to be a big business"
