@jeffreysms There are also meters that look fine and will take your money but won’t give you parking time.

Blight destroys opportunity. Broken parking meters are blight. They contribute to a sense of “we just don’t care” disinvestment, discourage visitors & hurt nearby businesses. We need to finish eliminating this blight. That’s why I am offering the below motion.

This would be an opportune time to bring back the EV tax credit—would benefit consumers, American automakers and of course the planet . @POTUS @Tesla @Teslarati

@wildbirdfund Very impressive bird-handling skills!

Shhhh. We’re stepping inside the woodcock room with Rachel Frank while she does the rounds: medication, food and cleaning.

@RedwoodMat @washoecounty Wonderful work! I hope you can expand into Ohio soon! @ccc_jeffreys

Nevada, we’ve got a new place for your old batteries. Redwood's Battery Bin program has landed in Reno, with ~20 locations coming statewide. Thanks to our partners @WashoeCounty and @NevadaTechHub for helping strengthen the battery supply chain right here in NV. kolotv.com/2026/03/12/lit…

@scifri Will miss you.

Science Friday is no longer posting on X. We didn’t make this decision lightly. We had many wonderful years on X/Twitter and have enjoyed thoughtful audience conversations, banter, and questions in this space. Thank you for supporting SciFri over the years—your curiosity fuels everything we do. We hope to see you in other spaces.

Proof that Amtrak is rising to the challenge of building a great American rail network

Ohio has a lot of fresh water-- for now. Once it's used for fracking, it's toxic, radioactive and undrinkable-- for eons. Join us: Tell OGLMC before March 15 to deny fracking 1,600 more acres at Egypt Valley Wildlife Area. (26-DNR-0004; 26-DNR-0005): bit.ly/40mwI3h

@Teslarati Tesla’s priority should be to get more people driving Teslas so that we can advance the electrification transition more quickly for the planet… there’s plenty to do when charging for 20 minutes—read, listen, meditate, step outside the rat race.

I didn’t think this would stimulate as much conversation as it did. Most people are okay with waiting 10-15 minutes for 10-20% charge because it gives them a chance to grab food, use the bathroom, etc. Does Supercharging need to be as fast as pumping gas?

Around the world, medicinal and aromatic plants are woven into the daily lives of billions of people. From ginseng to agarwood, the international trade of more than 1,500 species is regulated under @CITES. This #WorldWildlifeDay, discover why conserving them is essential for future generations: wildlifeday.org/en/about

@OSUEnvironment @ohiodnr @CFAES_OSU @MacFreeFilms Lovely movie, but no mention of why-oh-why is #Ohio allowing fracking in state parks and wilderness areas?

Say 'Oh-Hi!' to #Ohio on the big screen! Experience the wild, the wonder, and the untold stories of nature when Ohio: Wild at Heart premieres at the Ohio Union, Cartoon Room on February 18 from 4:00PM to 6:00PM. #OhioWildAtHeart @ohiodnr @CFAES_OSU @MacFreeFilms

It's Valentine's Day; show your love for Ohio's state parks and public lands. Tell regulators NO fracking 6,600 acres of Egypt Valley Wildlife Area! Egypt Valley is the largest wildlife area in Ohio. @SaveOhioParks: bit.ly/4bVrfaK @TheTimesLeader @OutdoorNews

Cincinnati is full of hidden gems like this one right in Carthage. The Seymour Nature Preserve is a beautiful park along the Mill Creek and just minutes away from the Carthage Business District. #Jeffreyswalksthe52 #Carthage #Cincinnati

Thank you @eBay for helping provide replacements for my beloved but aging piano music.

The owners of a historic school site, once at the center of a heated debate over its preservation, are now facing allegations of illegal dumping by neighbors and some Cincinnati City Council members. tinyurl.com/29ywd258

I put forward a motion in committee today requesting data on traffic citations by neighborhood. Injuries and fatalities have decreased over the years, but we need to stay vigilant that our enforcements efforts continue to work.

This 🧵 is topical once again…

@TeslaCharging Is Tesla moving older superchargers into less populated areas?

New Tesla Supercharger: Osen, Norway - Steinsdalen (2 stalls) tesla.com/en_eu/findus?l…

@ohiodnr Good work. Tree of heaven? What do you recommend for lesser celandine?

Our Div. of Natural Areas & Preserves invasives team tackled invasive plants. They use two different methods to kill off invasives - cut stump & basal bark herbicide application. The dyed herbicide is absorbed by the stump or bark & moves to the roots, killing the entire tree.

Methane is often sold as “natural gas.” But when it leaks, it’s one of the most powerful climate pollutants. At #BigGasPolluters, we track methane pollution because it’s frequently underreported, hard to detect, & harmful to our climate & our health. ➡️ BigGasPolluters.org.

@jeffreysms The data on this is absolutely clear. There is no safe blood level of lead. The consequences of lead poisoning affect everyone. This effort is well worth your good work and our collective financial investment.

Ending lead poisoning for the 500-1,000 children/year in #Cincinnati is one of my top priorities. We must stop using children as lead detectors for lead paint. It is unacceptable.
