In addition to “climate change” and “green,” EERE forbid officials from using “emissions” to avoid the implication that they are a negative. Climate change is caused by rising greenhouse gas emissions, which is driven primarily by burning oil, coal and natural gas for energy.

Other terms officials must ditch include “energy transition,” “sustainability/sustainable,” “‘clean’ or ‘dirty’ energy,” “Carbon/CO2 ‘Footprint’” and “Tax breaks/tax credits/subsidies.”

      Tech is the easy part. Building social capital is the hard part. That takes talking to people, face-to-face.

        Agreed. We won’t tech our way out of fascism but the tech could be useful. Local organization is the thing, offline.
