A new study, coordinated by EDF, is the first large-scale project to measure hydrogen emissions in real time. Together with partners, we aim to understand how much H2 is being released, what it means for the climate, and how to minimize risks. More ⬇️

Hydrogen has attracted billions in investment as a promising clean energy solution — but it also comes with challenges. As the new hydrogen economy begins to take off, scientists are taking a close...

We’re working with @CleanAirMoms to locate undocumented orphan and abandoned oil and gas wells in Western Pennsylvania, aiming to protect the environment and the people living and working near these sites. More on the project in @MonIndependent:

Environmental Defense Fund and Moms Clean Air Force, alongside contractors, will be working in Charleroi and other areas to identify undocumented orphan and abandoned oil and gas wells.

Fuel can cost up to $10/gallon in The Bahamas, burdening fishers and raising the price of everyday goods. A new @EnvDefenseFund study finds electrifying small vessels could cut these costs, protect marine life & support the critical fishing industry. 🎣

Addressing climate and air pollution from global aviation has never been more urgent. Fortunately, two strategies — one focused on strengthening carbon pricing and the other on cleaning up jet fuel itself — offer powerful, complementary paths forward.

The science is clear: hydrogen emissions indirectly cause warming & we must manage them to maximize H2's climate benefits. Now it's up to governments, regulators and standards bodies like @isostandards to reflect that science in policy & accounting.

EDF & @CleanAirMoms will kick off the next leg of orphan well surveys in Pennsylvania, moving from rural NW to Allegheny & Washington counties, in an effort to start locating PA's approx. 300-700K undocumented orphan wells. Via @lilycoleman_4 / @WTAE:

The Environmental Defense Fund estimates there are somewhere between 300,000 and 700,000 undocumented, abandoned oil and gas wells in Western Pennsylvania alone.

New York's congestion relief plan took years to implement — but only months to show progress. It's improving traffic, transit, and air quality. Cities nationwide should be paying attention. Via @AtmosMag:

The resounding success of New York City’s congestion pricing provides a blueprint for advancing social and environmental policies nationwide

✈️ If aviation were a country, it’d be one of the world’s top 10 climate polluters. But smarter jet fuel policies + stronger carbon markets can clean up the skies and save lives.

🌡️ Heat pumps are a climate solution and a cost-saving one — if rates are structured for them. New report shows 82% of Massachusetts homes could save this winter with the right rate design. Time for policy to catch up.

By Jolette Westbrook Heat pumps can offer significant winter heating savings for 82% of MA homes if outdated electric rates are reformed. Current MA electric rates hinder climate goals and discourage...

As we prepare to deploy hydrogen at scale, we must ensure standards and policies, including @isostandards, are rooted in the latest science -- like science showing H2's own indirect warming impact. Otherwise, we risk undermining the very climate benefits we seek.

The #Trump administration will allow oil companies to sue #California if it establishes regulations against polluting emissions. This will jeopardize people’s health, jobs and their home insurance, according to Anabel Maldonado via @Telemundo.
#EstadosUnidos. La administración de #Trump permitirá que las petroleras demanden a #California si establece regulaciones contra emisiones contaminantes. Perjudicará salud, empleos y seguros de vivienda, según Anabel Maldonado vía @Telemundo

Puerto Rico has a bold goal: 100% renewable energy by 2050. But reaching it requires more than ambition — it needs strong policies that make clean energy accessible to every household. Culebra offers a roadmap. ☀️ Via @GLISPA_discuss:.

Hydrogen’s indirect warming effect has been known since the 70s and is cited in 3 @IPCC_CH reports. Yet it’s largely absent from frameworks used to evaluate H2's climate benefits for no apparent reason other than it is inconvenient. We must change that:
