BREAKING: NY DEC commissioner rejects Crestwood Midstream Partners plan to store compressed LPG in mineral cavern on west shore of Seneca Lake. @FreeSeneca ithacajournal.com/story/news…
URGENT! Call Carl Heastie and Assembly Majority Leader Joe Morelle ASAP and urge them to pass A11214 (Cusick)! We are so close to killing the garbage incinerator project! New York State Assembly Carl E. Heastie 518-455-3791 Assembly Majority Leader- Joe Morelle- 518-455-5373
TIME SENSITIVE! 5 days left to kill the garbage incinerator in the #FLX . Call your Senator and Assembly Member NOW! Don't let the Legislature leave Albany without passing the Helming/ Cusick bill (S 8109 and A10277 )!

The unlined salt caverns on #SenecaLake are not engineered for the storage of dangerous propane and despite acknowledging possible leaks, Crestwood is still planning to move forward with its plan. Tell Governor @NYGovCuomo at 877-235-6537 to reject this unsafe proposal!

Now that 💯% clean, renewable roadmaps for 139 countries and several ways of avoiding blackouts are available, I ask the world, including nuclear, CCS, and biofuel supporters to help deploy 100% ASAP to avoid 1.5C warming @100isNow @MarkRuffalo @BillMcKibben @SenSanders @algore xitter.cf/MarkRuffalo/status/961…

We just released our comprehensive master plan to create 2.4 gigawatts of offshore wind power in New York.
Offshore wind will be critical to reach our goal of reducing greenhouse emissions by 80 percent by 2050 and fight climate change. governor.ny.gov/news/governo…

This produces the annual energy of 11.8 large (1000-MW) nuclear reactors. But the solar planning-to-operation time is 2-5 years vs 10-19 for nuclear. Plus no meltdowns, weapons proliferation, or radioactive waste xitter.cf/mzjacobson/status/9569…

This is sickening. Organic products are being grown with wastewater. Let's put a stop to this. xitter.cf/foodandwater/status/95…
“People are outraged, especially parents, when they find out the products they’re buying, sometimes organic, are actually being raised with oil and gas wastewater.” -- @WenonahHauter

Displacing coal with wood chips for power generation will worsen climate change reneweconomy.com.au/displaci… Another reason we need to focus on #wind, water, and sunlight (#WWS)

The energy return on energy investment of coal + carbon capture is worse than renewable energy adjusted for the quality of the energy. Full stop. And now renewable bids are coming in at the MARGINAL cost of firing EXISTING fossil fuel capacity. Game over. xitter.cf/mzjacobson/status/9525…
And with this, the entire argument to use fossils with carbon capture (e.g., clean coal), natural gas, or nuclear VANISHES. Any of those projects now a proven waste of resource-an opportunity cost that will only limit deployment of cheaper wind&solar, increasing carbon&pollution xitter.cf/mzjacobson/status/9525…

Amazing low bids for #wind+#battery storage: 11 bids - medium price: 2.1 cents/kWh; #solar+battery: 87 bids - 3.6 cents/kWh; wind&solar+battery: 7 bids- 3.06 cents/kWh cleantechnica.com/2018/01/11…
