Latest designs store huge amounts of energy safely, with the potential to smooth out the power from renewables and replace the vulnerable national grid with a giant web of self-sufficient, more resilient clean energy microgrids. Yes!! This future can't come fast enough!

Let's Count The Ways Keystone Helps US -Oops, Harms US ...unless... Do 35 permanent jobs count? Act Like You Care: The XL Keystone pipeline will make possible far more climate change, but President Obama might okay it anyway. Credo, 350.org and others are asking people to stand up and be counted as nonviolent resisters or help in other ways. I did. If you ever wanted to do something big for your future, now's your chance - here!
Atmospheric Warming Tied To Greenland High, Shoveling Arctic Cold into US, reports Neven Acropolis at Climate Progress, with help from Andrew Freedman at Climate Central. Strong high pressure areas, which new studies tie to climate change, act like atmospheric stop signs, allowing US storms to gather strength and Arctic cold. Snow cones, anyone?

Every day is Earth Day, folks, as I was reminded by these Irises I photographed recently. Making the U.S. a global clean energy leader will ensure a heck of a lot more jobs, and a clean, safe future. If you'd like to join the increasing numbers of people who want to TELL Congress that they will vote for clean energy candidates you can do so here. It's our way of letting Congress know there's a strong clean energy voting bloc out there. For more detailed summaries of the above and other climate change items, audio podcasts and texts are freely available.
