Why are electric bills so high? If your monopoly utility spends $10 million on wires and transformers, your state will let them increase prices to recover the $10M plus ~$1M per year, every year for the foreseeable future. You and your neighbors will pay ~$35M for ~$10M of infrastructure.

Hi @npr.org! We worked late tonight putting together this handy pocket guide!

It doesn't address road design issues, but if we're going to educate road users, we should include drivers.

It's the size of a folded business card. Print it, fold it, put it in your wallet!

Impressive #multisolving

How clean energy met the moment in the New England summer of 2025 (Viewpoint) This summer proved that renewables aren’t just a future promise; they are already delivering reliable, affordable, and resilient power when New England needs it most.

Extreme summer heat is our new reality - an intensifying crisis straining health, infrastructure, and wallets.

But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

Yes! Let’s also do:

"How Do You Avoid Hitting People With Your Car" pocket guide. Instructs readers to Watch the Road and Slow Down. Further text humorously insists that watching the road and slowing down are indeed important.

We worked late tonight coming up with this handy pocket guide to send to NPR.

It doesn't address road design issues, but if we're going to educate road users, we should include drivers.

Dear NPR. No. Just no. This is not how you help.

One of the several thousand actual road safety experts here. We are easy to find. Maybe give one of us a call next time, ok?
