16th Secretary of @ENERGY. Former Governor of Michigan. Obsessed with solving climate change and creating good-paying clean energy jobs.
- I just spoke with Ukraine’s energy minister about the situation at the Zaphorizhizia nuclear plant. Russian military operations near the plant are reckless and must cease. 1/
- We just got off the phone with #ColonialPipeline CEO. They are restarting pipeline operations today at ~5pm. More soon.
- This is not over, folks.
- A reliable electrical grid is infrastructure.
- It’s the honor of my life to serve as Secretary of @ENERGY. America's future is bright, and it will be powered by clean energy union jobs right here at home.
00:00 - Replying to @SecGranholmThe plant’s reactors are protected by robust containment structures and reactors are being safely shut down. 3/3
- This is a code red. The evidence is clear: climate change poses an existential threat to our lives and our livelihoods. @POTUS' #BuildBackBetter agenda will make our communities safer and more resilient to the impacts of climate change and extreme weather events.Climate change is here — and we need to invest now.
00:00 - Replying to @SecGranholm
- “The oil and gas industries have millions of acres leased. They have 9,000 permits to drill onshore that are already approved. They are not using them for production now. That’s their decision. These are the facts.” - @POTUS
- Under @POTUS, for the first five months of this year, renewables produced more power than coal — a first for our country that is leading to a drastic decline in carbon emissions.
- As @POTUS visits Mexico🇲🇽, here are some facts: ✅Mexico could be a major exporter of clean energy to its neighbors given its world-class renewable energy resource potential, making North America a clean energy powerhouse. 1/ (Thread)
- Colonial Pipeline reports this morning that the restart of the pipeline went well overnight. This should mean things will return to normal by the end of the weekend. Will keep you posted.
- I’m feeling frustrated today too. But the urgency of the climate crisis demands we move forward. @POTUS is not backing down, and neither am I. We will fight like hell with the tools we have to build a clean energy future and move forward on climate action.
