Glad to see @MDEnvironment taking a proactive approach to sampling for toxic PFAS in fish. We’re counting on the agency and @GovWesMoore to use every tool in the toolbox to address contamination. We can’t shop or smart-fish our way out of PFAS exposure. baltimoresun.com/2023/12/08/… – at Baltimore, MD

WOW! If every homeowner in Maryland shopping for an AC unit in the summertime chose an air source heat pump instead and used it to replace a gas furnace in winter, the state could electrify space heating in 73% of all homes by 2030. #ElectrifyEverything ⚡️ marylandmatters.org/2023/06/…

ICYMI- The cleanest, most affordable energy is energy we don’t use. Cheers to @GovWesMoore for doubling the energy efficiency goal for state buildings to save our pocketbooks and the planet. pirg.org/maryland/foundation…
