In ā€œAbundance,ā€ Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson offer a cure for what ails America. But the source of the disease is not our failure to produce enough ... it is rather our lack of recognition of the abundance we currently enjoy, Tony Dutzik writes.Ā frontiergroup.org/articles/the-p…

Federal action on climate change is important, but America doesn’t have to wait on Washington. States and cities across the country have shown that they can drive real progress, in spite of federal inaction. frontiergroup.org/articles/state…

In 2017, a group of states committed to reduce climate pollution, despite federal inaction. As Nilou Yaar and Theo Rosen write, the progress they've made provides hope that state and local governments can continue to lead the way on climate. frontiergroup.org/articles/state…

Why don’t more homes in Texas have solar panels? One factor: Getting a permit can be a slow and expensive process. Our new report with @environmenttex highlights the many barriers Texas families encounter when they try to ā€œgo solar.ā€ frontiergroup.org/resources/red-…

Texas has an abundance of sunlight, so why don’t more homes have solar panels? We interviewed solar installers and government officials to learn how the permitting process is one factor making it harder for Texans to ā€œgo solarā€ frontiergroup.org/resources/red-…

For our new report with @environmenttex, solar installers told us about the permitting problems they encounter when trying to help Texas families install solar. These problems add weeks or even months of delay to residential solar projects. frontiergroup.org/resources/red-…

Unpredictable permit processes, poor communication, and variations in permit requirements between jurisdictions are just some of the problems slowing down adoption of residential solar energy in Texas. For more, see our new report with @environmenttex: frontiergroup.org/resources/red-…

Solar installers told us how slow, complicated and unpredictable permitting discourages Texas families from installing rooftop solar. One solution: automated permitting, which uses software to speed the review of solar project applications. frontiergroup.org/resources/red-…

We talked to solar installers across Illinois to learn about the bureaucratic obstacles to rooftop solar adoption and what can be done to speed things up, lower costs, and unlock clean energy for more Illinois families. Check out our report: frontiergroup.org/resources/red-…

Illinois has made major strides in rooftop solar adoption but is still tapping just a small fraction of its full potential. Red tape in the permitting process is a big part of the reason why. As our new report explains, instant permitting can help fix that frontiergroup.org/resources/red-…

Carbon offsets sound like a good way to reduce your climate impact, but do they actually work? A new post by Nilou Yaar digs into what offsets really do, where they fall short (e.g., palm oil plantations), and why cutting your own emissions is still best. frontiergroup.org/articles/can-c…
