Strangely, it’s relevant to #permittingreform that in Arizona it’s against the law to put a donkey in a bathtub. Read the linked article by @danieljpropp to find out why. @cclatx @TxEESR

We had a good day of advocacy at the Texas state capital along side our partners at @citizensclimate. Texas is a leader in renewable power generation. Further investment in transmission lines will reduce congestion, save Texans money and help reduce emissions.

@mattlargey @austinenergy The CoA Hazard Mitigation plan (austintexas.gov/sites/default/…) seems superficial and incomplete. Will the Office of Emergency Management make a real plan with scenarios and goals for recovery now?

Hello.
I would like to invite you all to record your questions for @austinenergy and city leaders about the power crisis.
We're planning a town hall-like radio special in the coming days and we need your questions.
Keep it civil.

ICYMI, Waco economist Ray Perryman told the Odessa American “the future will see an all-of-the-above energy complex and Texas is well positioned to be a major supplier of both conventional and renewable resources. Both will be major generators of business activity in the state.”

Weeks ago, the US was on the cusp of passing the largest environmental bill since the Endangered Species Act of 1973. Then the bill — known as Recovering America's Wildlife Act — died in Congress.
I wrote about whether a new Congress can pass it.

Horrifying that we are increasing LNG export capacity:
"Another $19.3 billion has been invested in LNG plants under construction in Texas and Louisiana. When completed those plants will boost existing U.S. export capacity by 39 percent by 2025."

“Had this exported LNG been available for fuel-starved Texas power plants, they could have generated enough electricity to serve more than half of the residential customers who suffered through blackouts during Winter Storm Uri.” theaustinbulldog.org/while-texas-fr…

“Existing utility-scale wind, solar, and energy storage projects in Texas are estimated to pay Texas landowners $7.1–$11.3 billion over the lifetime of the projects.” Texas is blessed with an abundance of natural resources. No logical reason to pit one against another. #txlege

Hot off the presses: A study by @joshdr83 and released by @cnsrvtxns4nrg, @APowerAlliance, and @txbiz shows clean energy projects are producing tens of billions of dollars for Texas taxpayers and landowners. tinyurl.com/z8t955j6 #txlege #txenergy #SustainableSolutions
