Quick notes: Climate hero, Beans to the rescue..
- Narendra Modi, global climate superhero? Since 2014, there’s been a 91% increase in grid-connected renewable energy capacity, a total of 22.6 gigawatts. At the same time, India’s coal-based power sector has been in decline. India’s Central Electricity Authority estimates that the country won’t need a new coal-based power plant till 2022.

- 8 things Trump said about the Paris Climate Agreement that are total BS:
California’s economy grew 40 percent faster than the rest of the U.S.
last year, even as the Golden State carried out aggressive policies for
boosting renewable energy, energy efficiency, and zero-emissions
vehicles.

- Replacing beef with beans could save the planet: Pound for pound, legumes deliver more calories and more protein than beef with a far, far smaller carbon footprint. “Eating more beans is a great way to increase phytonutrients, fiber, antioxidants and lifespan”.
