Switzerland has turned against #solar as well. The #FossilFools are winning it seems.
Turnout was only 36%! https://qz.com/southern-swiss-region-rejects-a-plan-to-fast-track-big-1850822921

This is where some of the $billions in subsidies is going to the fossil fuel industry in Canada! A paid social media propaganda post. #netzero #fossilfools #advertising

Driver, who was going 45/50mph, almost hit the cyclist in front of me at Kezar Dr and GGP's entrance. The driver had no plans on stopping. I told them to slow down after the fact.
Fun times.
I should have it on my vid cam. Will post later.

Alberta, Canada is being lead by a short sighted
#fossilfools ideologue. Premier Danielle Smith places a moratorium negatively affecting 118 projects and about $33 billion dollars in total investment including #cooperative #solarpower

The #FossilFools are going to increase inflation in order to help make Americans upset over the Xmas season in order to help put the GOP back in charge of U.S. climate and energy policy it sure seems.
Picnic with bike frens. Simply the best community.

At least as they try to squeeze as much profit out of their dirty energy as they can it's helping to make renewable, cleaner energy a lot more competitive so this is a great time to decarbonize and let those #FossilFools keep their damn oil, methane, propane, coal, and crap! https://mc-cd8320d4-36a1-40ac-83cc-3389-cdn-endpoint.azureedge.net/-/media/Files/IRENA/Agency/Publication/2023/Aug/IRENA_Renewable_power_generation_costs_in_2022.pdf
As the global fossil fuel industry used the confluence of events in 2022 to price gouge consumers and in an effort to put the GOP back in power in the U.S. Congress with the worst price shock in 80 years, they'll be trying the same thing this Xmas and then again next fall in an effort to put the #FossilFools back in charge of the world's largest economy.
Please consider promoting Democrats versus helping Republicans by attacking them if you care about our planet.

Can you explain the basis supporting your assertion that attacking the opposition party that is trying to take #ClimateAction in a two-party political system not helping the climate science denying party is not helping the #FossilFools keep power?
NASA scientist Peter Kalmus calls for Biden to declare a climate emergency. “The public just doesn’t understand, in my opinion, what a deep emergency we are in,” says Kalmus. “This is the merest beginning of what we’re going to see in coming years.” Kalmus blasts the fossil fuel industry for manipulating politics through campaign contributions, and GOP presidential candidates for misleading the public about climate science.“ #climatediary #fossilfools https://www.democracynow.org/2023/8/31/peter_kalmus_climate
I'm so sick of SF fossil fools and traffic violence ghouls. Every day is a day wasted where we don't remove traffic lanes, fund transit and create a slow street network.

First night where the evening light looked like fall. First night I could see and smell smoke in a very long time. Not a great combo.

I'd rather support decarbonizing our economy rather than complain about every step headed that direction because it didn't go exactly the way I wish it had.
The constant whinging and inability to give credit where and when credit is due is doing as much to block #ClimateAction as are the #FossilFools but it's up to you what you choose to do.
The #FossilFools up in Alberta, Canada that have done so much to cause the terrible #wildfires we're suffering through, blocked development of new renewable energy projects for the rest of the year.
Industry response:
"Without certainty as to what the outcome of this pause will be, we will prioritize investment into other jurisdictions."
Conservatives don't seem to really care if you ask me. https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/renewables-companies-hit-brakes-alberta-projects-after-govt-delays-approvals-2023-08-21/
Hooray for Ecuador - a poor nation willing to give up oil revenues for a better future, for us all.
Sad that US Americans will continue to destroy the world with their cars, riding lawnmowers, etc.

The #FossilFools trying to reduce support for Biden in order to have a better chance of putting the GOP back in charge are fond of conflating sales versus when the permits all go through which is strictly governed by administrative law thankfully out of the hands of any one administration.
Fossil fuel companies are asking the Hawaiian supreme court to dismiss Honolulu’s climate case.
Read more about their allegations against fossil fuel companies in Dana Drugmand's new article.
Tough news week for the #FossilFools to make a case to get their climate lawsuit dropped in Hawaii I'd say. https://www.desmog.com/2023/08/18/fossil-fuel-asks-court-to-dismiss-honolulu-climate-lawsuit/
