"It's blatant, ridiculous arrogance to think that we can ONLY adapt. The chances of us adapting successfully only get worse as we continue to FAIL on #Mitigation. This is just 100% obvious & the truth. There's this huge disconnect around connecting the dots between #CityBuilding & #ClimateChange

“expansion harms health in two ways, first through #climatechange, and research indicates that if you consider the entire lifespan of methane extracted through fracking, its transport through pipelines, and ultimately, the greenhouse gas produced when it burns, it can make LNG equivalent to coal for fueling the climate crisis.

Tribal Energy Finance: Changes to DOE Loan Program Would Reduce Barriers for Tribes

The Department of Energy’s Tribal Energy Financing Program offers Tribes loans and loan guarantees for energy projects—such as natural gas, solar, and wind infrastructure. But several factors make it harder for Tribes to access this financing, which can cause them to miss opportunities to generate revenue. For example, DOE hires outside lawyers, technical experts, and more to review projects. Tribes are required to cover the costs of these services, which can be high and unpredictable. Also, DOE has few designated staff with tribal experience to review applications, so reviews take longer.
