@Al_Mercuro @sxsw @BizBash @nprmusic @LiveNation @RollingStone @UN_SDG @sandy_carter Great analysis, especially around sustainability emerging as a core pillar. It’s encouraging to see climate innovation and storytelling take center stage at an event like SXSW. Feels like a clear signal that this space is no longer niche, its really driving convos.

SXSW 2026 wasn’t just a festival this year, it was a live experiment in how global events adapt under pressure. takeaways, warning signs, voices that shaped the week. linkedin.com/pulse/sxsw-202… @sxsw @BizBash @nprmusic @LiveNation @RollingStone @UN_SDG @sandy_carter @EarthDay

Hmm. Gas prices rising. Utility bills climbing. Energy costs through the roof. 🤔 We're stumped. Absolutely no idea what could be causing this. None whatsoever. Zero clues.

@MonthlyEarthDay @thetreegens Say less! 🎉 Earth Day 2026 is April 22 and we have events everywhere — from Houston to Nairobi to Sydney. Cleanups, tree plantings, festivals, volunteer days… there's something for everyone. Drop your city below and we'll point you in the right direction 👇🌎

@thetreegens Hey @EarthDay, come talk about April 22! 🥳

Fossil fuels look “good for the economy” only if you ignore the bill they send to everyone else. ⏺ Air pollution from fossil fuels costs the U.S. $800B–$1T yearly in health bills, lost work, & early deaths. ⏺ Health damages from fossil-fuel power alone: $0.14–$1.01 per kWh, often more than the electricity itself costs. ​ ⏺ Global fossil subsidies (pollution + climate unpriced): $6.7T in 2024, or 5.8% of world GDP.

Our brains love green. According to science, living in a greener neighborhood was linked to brain performance that looked 1.2 years ‘younger’ in midlife women. Read the full study here👇 nia.nih.gov/news/exposure-…

GOOD NEWS: Virginia to become second state that allows balcony solar Residents of the state will soon be able to use the tech to lower their electricity bills. Gov. Spanberger has made affordability a top legislative priority. canarymedia.com/articles/solar…

Politics aside, solar keeps shining. ☀️ Even among (new admin) voters, 70% support U.S.-made solar panels, and 68% agree solar helps keep electricity costs down. axios.com/2026/02/04/tru…

1️⃣ 43 GW of new solar installed – the #1 source of new power for the fifth year in a row. 2️⃣ Texas leads the way with 11 GW added, followed by Indiana, Florida, Arizona, Ohio, Utah & Arkansas. 3️⃣ Solar + storage made up 79% of all new U.S. power capacity. 4️⃣ The U.S. solar supply chain is stronger than ever – every major component can now be produced domestically. 5️⃣ By 2036, the U.S. could add 490 GW more solar, bringing total installed capacity close to 770 GW.

This past Wednesday was Solar Appreciation Day! 🌞 Check out these top solar facts from 2025 in the U.S. 👇

@JeromeFosterII That's exactly why this year's Earth Day theme is Our Power, Our Planet. Environmental progress has never depended on a single election or administration. It's sustained by communities, educators, workers, and everyday people. That power belongs to all of us! #OurPowerOurPlanet

@EarthDay That's why a serious shift today with have a massive impact on twenty years into the future. Every action matters!

A serious shift to #renewableenergy twenty years ago could have changed the course of climate change entirely.

If we’re going to achieve President Trump's vision of energy dominance, solar and storage must be at the center of the solution. Why? 1. Affordability 2. Reliability 3. Energy security 4. Meeting rising demand. More: seia.org/blog/trumps-en…

South Korea is looking to quadruple solar power from factory rooftops and parking lots: buff.ly/pfaNOie Shouldn't every roof and parking lot get a solar upgrade? We have the solutions. #ActOnClimate #climate #renewables

@IAA__India @EnvisionEnergy @EnvisionRacing 🌏🌍🌎

In a major commitment to the planet, @EnvisionEnergy and @EnvisionRacing are partnering with @EarthDay to plant 100,000 mangroves every year. Now the IAA is calling for a creative spark to design an iconic logo for the Sundarbans Restoration Project. Last date: 25 March 2026.

In 2025, more than half of all new electricity added to the US grid came from solar. Add battery storage and that number jumps to nearly 80%. Draw your own conclusions 💭 #OurPowerOurPlanet #EarthDay2026 @SEIA
