- Reposted by Leon Rozenblit, JD, PhDI often find myself saying things like 'climate change will mean X by 2050', and forget to complete the sentence with 'unless we stop that happening' That makes it seem inevitable, rather than a societal choice, & robs us of agency So this is a gentle encouragement to not leave the key bit unsaid

- Reposted by Leon Rozenblit, JD, PhDThe wild thing is that even appliance manufacturers don't want EnergyStar canceled. They want predictable regulatory environments and healthy competition to make stuff people actually like, not a race to the bottom. All this does is own the libs? and make a bit more $ for companies that sell energy.
- Shutting down the Energy Star program will raise your energy costs and make you sicker. There is no good policy reason to shut it down. None. It saves people lots of money and helps cut pollution. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/06/c...

- Brilliant to eliminate Energy Star, a program that costs $32m but delivered $40b in annual savings. None other than the US chamber of commerce tried to save it as a model of business/government partnership. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/06/c...
- Most new technologies and all automations aim to decrease labor costs. This is a concern to be managed, not a fatal flaw. Rapidly evolving technologies with broad impacts require thoughtful discussion and wise policies, not knee-jerk opposition. #ResponsibleAI #AISky
