Ryan Popple wanted a world free of fossil fuels. I'm devastated to learn of his passing. He was my partner and friend.
His legacy will live on as a climate crusader, from Kleiner to Proterra...and a loving father.
Ryan will be missed—but not forgotten.
We are deeply saddened by the passing of our colleague and dear friend, Ryan Popple. We mourn with his family.

Thank you
@POTUS
for signing the historic
#InflationReductionAct
into law and making clean energy more affordable for all Americans.
This new legislation will cut U.S. emissions by 40% by 2030 – getting us closer to our climate goals and helping us secure a habitable future.
The Inflation Reduction Act will help save money on prescription drugs, cut health care premiums, cut energy costs, take aggressive action on climate, and make large corporations pay their fair share in taxes.
We got it done.

We’re on the brink of a real revolution
In the 90s, I took some flak & kicked up a firestorm for saying the Internet is underhyped
Clean technologies, too, are underhyped—and underappreciated in terms of their importance for the planet, our economies, & equity

"The transition to a new clean energy economy needs to be managed as best as we can. But this is not some green kumbaya party that we're having. It's a real revolution and there will be winners and there will be losers," says
