Tonight Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and I were joined by 10 of our colleagues in sending a letter to the White House Council on Environmental Quality requesting an extension of the public comment period on CEQ's new carbon capture technology guidance.

Why is the convo centered around making a #FalseSolution broken program better? CARB JUST DON'T DO IT. #NoTFS #NoOffsets #NoCorporateLoopholes #OffsetsPollute DIRECT REDUCTIONS at the source NOW

Inflicting experimental tech on the poor seems to be a favorite philanthropic hobby. Recycled Plastics as a building material is a bad bad idea! Plastics leach chemicals throughout their life time and such homes are a major fire hazard. Plastics For Change #FalseSolution
NM’s Hydrogen Hub Act (HB4) has so many implications for the southwest. We must debunk this #greenwashing #falsesolution because hydrogen is not a ‘clean energy source’. Join us this morning to oppose HB4 bit.ly/35sHvjf
Another day, another biomass burning scam.
You can't get away with this type of fraud if EU got its renewable energy from wind and solar....rather than burning 🌲🌳🌲

👉 It’s obvious why oil and gas companies like the idea of CCS. Fossil fuel firms can keep extracting and selling their product and mopping up the climate-wrecking emissions is someone else’s responsibility. #hoodwinked #falsesolution theconversation.com/cumbria-coal-m…
Hydrogen is a #FalseSolution :
- It's expensive and inefficient. It uses 3x more renewable energy than heat pumps
- It leaks out of pipes at an even greater rate than methane
- It causes harmful NOx pollution
- It embrittles steel pipes
- It's explosive and hard to store
New Mexico Environment Department Secretary James Kenney gets to what HB4 #HydrogenHype #FalseSolution actually does which is give MORE taxpayer subsidies to #OilandGas . #nmleg
Today is day twenty five of tweeting Trent University until they divest from fossil fuels and today I present to you...
Why ESG is a #FalseSolution and we still need divestment- a 🧵 (with info from Divest Canada Coalition):
Influential gas lobby group H2 EU just announced new board member: 🇮🇹 gas transport company Snam will from now on also pressure European Commission and others to speculate on hugely controversial H2 as future replacement for #fossilgas . Why this is a #falsesolution 🧵(1/7)
Carbon capture is a #FalseSolution that allows fossil fuel corporations to keep polluting. Some of Virginia's legislators also would like to keep the state's fossil fuel plants open for decades longer using this bad technology. We need to stop them!
In case you haven't heard Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham wants to push a Hydrogen Hub in NM. This defies geological reality and is a #falsesolution . See what SouthWest Organizing Project, Pueblo Action Alliance, YUCCA Action, Earth Care NM, and others are doing to combat this. swop.ourpowerbase.net/civicrm/mailin…
The government should spend #50Billion to make public transit free and expand service in cities across Canada.
It should NOT hand that #50Billion to oil+gas companies to emit more GHGs, while pretending they are capturing carbon.
Carbon capture+storage= #falsesolution
