❝ Something we have to understand is that nobody’s going to change their mind about this. We have to change the incentives. It is an overwhelming reality that this is not about convincing people. It’s not about convincing the Republican Party to see the light. It’s about changing their incentives, how they get elected, who finances their campaigns, and on and on. We have to look at the base of the pyramid in order to destroy the pyramid. ❞ *

❝ I think this goes to just the frustrating nature of our information ecology, that the Inflation Reduction Act is not recognized as the enormous fucking deal that it actually is. This is the most important piece of climate legislation passed in the history of the world, and it’s not even close. It’s a bigger deal than the Paris Climate Accord. If it’s given a chance to play out over the next decade, it will lead to enormous structural changes in our energy system and our economy. … So when we look at what is changing things, it always goes back to this push of democracy forcing our political leaders to account. And that’s what we have to continue to do. ❞ *
