Interesting stats on EVs and energy use in the US, developments in wind and tidal power, a plastic recycling microfactory, and an "unprecedented collapse" in EU fossil fuel generation.
The BlueGreen Alliance is a US non-profit that unites labor unions and environmental organizations to solve today’s environmental challenges in ways that support local industries and workers. They've just released a report authored by researchers at Dartmouth and Princeton showing that the IRA "offers wind and solar developers an airtight business case to use U.S.-manufactured components and pay workers fair wages."
American companies paying American workers good money to create energy solutions that reduce global emissions AND save trillions on global energy costs. As the report says, "It has always been the right thing to do. Now it’s also the most economical thing to do." 🌎 💪
