If you want to save farmland for food support solar PV instead of corn ethanol cleanwisconsin.org/wp-content/upl…

Would be helpful to redirect data center moral panic to reduce cropland devoted to ethanol

🥳🎉 #Tucson in secures $2 million per year commitment from utility *shareholders* for local investment in clean, affordable energy due to franchise negotiations. The public power campaign made this happen (and would still be superior): vist.ly/42yme

#NorthernFlyerAlliance is working on Wichita.

@jazayerli Was that over the shortened corner fence or more into the "unmoved" center?

Put it all together: the Royals hit a game-tying HR down to their final out for just the 24th time in franchise history (11th time ever at home), AND hit a walk-off HR down to their final out for just the 6th time in franchise history. Most dramatic Royals game ever? You decide.

@MidwesternPRA Yes, and an additional way to add service to Des Moines is the FRA suggested route from St. Paul to KC via DM. @allaboardmn

The LARGEST city in Iowa doesn't have passenger rail service, we should change that:

I really think the #Royals moving next to Union Station is a home run. Of course there’ll be downsides, it won’t be universally loved, but I’m excited to give it a shot. - Already established nearby gathering spots at Union Station, Crown Center, Liberty Memorial hill. - 6 modes of transportation to get to games, all but one will be easier than current location. - Could have local Amtrak train routes come from across the metro to provide alternative transit. - Provides reason for more investment in number of streetcars, Amtrak train routes, and potentially nearby roads/I-35. - Visually cool area/backdrop: Western Auto sign, skyline, train tracks, surrounding fountains - Activities for all ages already in nearby area: Crown Center inside/terrace, Legoland, Sea Life, ice skating, ferris wheel, Penn Valley park, Liberty Memorial, Union Station, Science City, planetarium, theaters, access to P&L district/T-Mobile center. - Much more accessible to greater number of fans in more central location, so more likely to draw in casual fans. - Allows for more investment in key city venues like Crown Center/Union Station, without needing to build from scratch. - 20k parking spots within a 10-minute walk of the stadium, including established garages for Crown Center/Union Station, and lots of drop off areas. - Quick access to hotels, restaurants, bars and crossroads district just across the tracks. Appeals to out of town visitors and adds pre/postgame options for locals. - Plus any development/additions the team/city/state will make to improve the area and its amenities. (Obviously not official designs pictured)

Deborah Fischer Stout is president of the Northern Flyer Alliance, a group that advocates for additional passenger rail options. Could one of those options be to expand commuter rail between Kansas City and Lawrence? You can count Stout as one of those who hope it’s possible. Read more: ⬇️ kshb.com/news/local-new…

Folks, we have a new entrant into the Dumbest Tax Policy Idea of 2026 contest. kansascity.com/news/politics-…

@Brianontheair @939TheEagle I only fill my plug-in hybrid up every three months or so at Costco.

The price for regular unleaded is $3.19 this morning at this Phillips 66 in south Columbia. How does this compare with your town in Missouri? @939TheEagle

“People are extremely enthusiastic about it.” Democratic and Republican lawmakers in 28 states, including South Carolina, have introduced legislation authorizing plug-in solar, story via @CanaryMediaInc ow.ly/l5pg50Ypmz4

@MoDOT_KC When I-70 is shut down later this year (correct?) maybe some folks could plan to use the Amtrak Missouri River Runner for travel from Lee's Summit, Independence and KC. It's pretty cheap.

JACKSON COUNTY- MoDOT will conduct a single lane closure on eastbound I-70 from mile marker 25.1 to mile marker 27.0 between Grain Valley and Oak Grove beginning on approx. Sat., Feb. 21 (TOMORROW) between 6 a.m. and 11 a.m. Details: modot.org/node/83722

@RenewMO This would a years long halt to increased energy production in Missouri. Not exactly a growth strategy.

A proposed Misosuri solar moratorium would "...halt all work on commercial-scale solar power installations and direct the state Department of Natural Resources to issue rules on their “construction, placement and operation.”" ☀️ ⚠️

The St. Paul City Council opened the door to a passenger rail service to Kansas City and other Minnesota cities. bizjournals.com/kansascity/new…

@johnrhanger Fossil fueled kleptocrats know they are coming to the end of their gravy train and are panicked!

New World! ~50% of global auto sales will be EV by 2030 ~52% of global electricity will be renewables (43%) & nuclear (9%) Petrostate politicos freakout, as Age of Fossil Fuels is ending. But not fast enough to prevent significant temperature rise and growing climate risks.

@s_webber So very true!

The Missouri Independent reports this is where all of Republicans new voucher money is being spent. Rural Republican legislators (who pushed this through) are being used and absolutely sticking it to their own districts #MoLeg

@sharicedavids Administration says they're "cutting programs that aren't popular with Republicans". We should make a list. Education, Energy, Healthcare...

Not for health care. Not for jobs. Not for schools. But to rig our maps and silence Kansas voters.
