There has been a fair bit of discussion about what parts of the electrical supply system need to be publicly owned to enable all households to move to public ownership in order to achieve full decarbonization. The system operator, which manages day-to-day decisions about generation, is a key one in pretty much all of them.

He'll spout words, likely ones which make it clear he's going to make good on his side of the oil industry's billion-dollar bribe.

Making that clear to people is likely a big deal

Version 1:

  • The world is going to end real soon
  • they expect to be raptured away to Heaven
  • God put stuff on the earth for us to use up before the rapture

Version 2:

  • Somebody else is going to suffer because of the environmental damage
  • Hurting other people shows how masculine and powerful I am
  • I profit from the damage
  • Damage = good

The IRA is absolutely a bill which uses capitalist mechanisms to achieve some decarbonization.

I'd love to get rid of PG&E and have a publicly-owned utility instead, which doesn't charge the @#$@#% markup the PG&E gets to in order to pay an ever-increasing dividend.

The thing that's amazing is that Walz did these things in the 1990s, when it was still reasonably common to fire teachers for any kind of hint they might be gay. That takes real courage.

A lot of engineering was done assuming that rainfall behaved the way it did in the past. That's not a valid assumption anymore.
