The catalyst for my involvement in climate action was my daughter, Mary. She held me accountable all those years back, & she continues to push me to act with Speed & Scale. This moment is for Mary, her generation, and all those to come. Father to father, thank you Brian Schatz.

Thank you President Donald J. Trump 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.
