Are #carbon tariffs trade protectionism or #climatepolicy? This video summarizes recent work on the issue. vimeo.com/287319846 #climatechange #CO2
.@daveregrets; We included nat gas price level and variability in the study. We were surprised to find that nat gas price level did not drive coal retirement; but we did find (weak) support that decreased variability in nat gas prices contributed to accelerated coal retirement.
.@daveregrets; if you are referring to the comment(s) in the piece (and paper) stating that Beyond Coal leveraged economic arguments, that is well-documented, but it does not undermine the environmental basis for their effort. When you can appeal to both, you build a bigger tent.
What factors legitimately deserve credit for driving coal generating unit retirements? That is the question @york_jeffrey and I examine in our forthcoming article (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…), covered here in The Conversation. #climatechange #energypolicy

Powerful image of Officer Eugene Goodman displaying tremendous courage as, quite literally it seems, the only person standing between a riotous mob and the center of our democracy. #HERO #CapitolRiot
If you need a good laugh, take a look at former astronaut and current AZ senator Mark Kelly's humor on full display. I nearly cried I laughed so hard! @CaptMarkKelly, can this be true?! #WhoNeedsALaugh

Many great ideas have never seen the light of day due to perfectionism.
You don't have to fix every flaw before seeking feedback. You just need to be proud of your progress.
Don't wait to share a project until it's done. Share it when what's done so far reflects your potential.
Great map of 2020 election showing political diversity w/i states.

"More Trump voters in CA than TX, more Biden voters in TX than NY, more Trump voters in NY than OH, more Biden voters in OH than MA, more Trump voters in MA than MS," etc. #2020Election
This is fun. A pinhole camera left forgotten in an observatory in Hartfordshire England, captures 2,953 days of the sun arcing through the sky. #OldSchool

Before demanding President-elect Biden answer questions about Hunter, wouldn't it make sense to see what sort of precedent is set over the next 39 days with respect to Presidents and their kids' legal issues? #PardonGate
The House votes (not Congress, just the House) only if no candidate has a majority of electors. Biden has a majority, even if the 18 states that support the suit withhold electors. If they did that, Biden would simply win with 305 instead of 306 (b/c he’d lose his NE elector).
Insights on psychological safety in the workplace (needed more than ever in these times!). Excellent summary of ideas from @AmyCEdmondson, one of the most intelligent and inclusive individuals that I have ever had the joy of working with.

Trump's legal team based overvoting claims in Michigan on data from red precincts in Minnesota. Apparently they got the coding for the two states wrong when they searched the data.

I was out for a run, taking it super easy, just trying to clear my head.
Wife called, reminded me we had an important call in 15 minutes, and I was ... not close to home.
Rest of the run was not so easy. :) #Whoops
I love this! @DollyParton's donation helped fund the Moderna vaccine (w/ @VanderbiltU; shoutout to the alma mater!). Thank you! And thank you to all the many other gracious donors and researchers who have put money and/or mind into this! #COVID19

This. I am at a loss as to how we allowed covid response to become so politicized. My perception of our identity as a nation was that, when we face a daunting enemy, we come together. But too many of us have been led to believe that it is our right not to care. #Care #WearAMask
This is the text I just received after asking my best friend ( pulmonary and critical care doctor) how she was doing. #WearAMask #SocialDistance
@JonathanTurley: You are correct. Confirming votes does not delegitimize our democracy.
However, POTUS claiming the election was a fraud and stolen DOES delegitimize democracy. Please do not play dumb. #ElectionResults2020 #bidenharis2020 #TrumperTantrum
