Maybe it’s hard to convince people we can change what we want, because it makes clear that our current wants are someone else’s fabrication. 14:44:18, 2014-12-27
Just dug my trailer out of a foot of snow. This is going to be an interesting couple of @BldrFoodRescue shifts… http://t.co/XebqP7JODK 08:04:37, 2014-12-27

Honestly posing the climate equity question sounds to me like “Would you like the budgets to be spectacularly, or just very inequitable?" 10:04:57, 2014-12-19

We can’t let US36 @RideRTD BRT be a concept failure. Too much on the line for @HPTECO & @ColoradoDOT. What is our leverage here. 19:11:54, 2014-12-08
I still don’t really understand @RideRTD’s institutional imperatives. Why are they so resistant to making this totally awesome? 19:08:37, 2014-12-08
Proposed @RideRTD service would eliminate midday express service (e.g. BMX) between Boulder and Denver. Not an enhancement. 19:06:43, 2014-12-08
Protip: if you don’t use your @RideRTD EcoPass for too long — even if it’s still valid — it gets deactivated. Reactivation requires Kafka. 19:01:44, 2014-12-08
The TAB packet this evening definitely has a little extra special snap to it. Somebody is not amused. 18:57:21, 2014-12-08
A few years in, @RideRTD smart cards are still not producing usable data. Fare study is moving forward anyway, no details yet. 18:51:30, 2014-12-08
So @RideRTD is planning to reduce express service, require BRT buses to go in & out of managed lanes, thus obviating BRT altogether. Srsly? 18:24:49, 2014-12-08
Boulder feels like it’s being shortchanged — no FasTracks $$ for NW corridor OpEx in 2015, despite much lower CapEx than other corridors… 18:18:45, 2014-12-08
Supposedly @RideRTD will have real-time arrival info on buses systemwide, by BRT opening day in 2016. *cough* smartcard data. 18:15:53, 2014-12-08
The @RideRTD BRT service plan reallocates existing resources, but isn’t a net enhancement, ignores some new markets. 18:14:20, 2014-12-08

And this is why nobody talks about policy decisions in terms of carbon budgets when in polite company. Should be a fun public hearing. 18:26:24, 2014-10-29
Of course this assumes future humans burn nothing, and a grossly inequitable division of remaining carbon, given historic emissions. 18:25:11, 2014-10-29
Also… the average US citizen burns through that 70 ton CO2 budget every 3.5 years. So… yeah. Who wants (yet another) stiff drink? 18:15:56, 2014-10-29
That’s 20% over budget, even if you never fly, drive, use gas heating, synthetic fertilizers, or any other power plant ever again. 18:08:26, 2014-10-29
If @XcelEnergyCO’s Comanche coal plant runs until 2069 as slated, it will emit 85T of CO2 for each Coloradan. Or 122% of per capita budget. 18:06:19, 2014-10-29
Splitting that 500GT equally (which is not to say equitably, by any stretch) across current human population of 7B gives ~70 tons CO2/person 18:03:33, 2014-10-29
Using @billmckibben’s 565GT budget from Global Warming’s Terrifying New Math in @RollingStone… we’ve got 500GT left (that was 2 years ago). 17:59:20, 2014-10-29

Younger person appalled that gas pipeline is considered a long term asset. Called it a "band aid on gaping wound" re fracking. Also climate. 20:32:55, 2014-10-28
Discounting of working capital for pass through costs like fuel at the WACC doesn't make sense, because it's a truly deferred customer cost. 20:29:32, 2014-10-28
Jackson getting a note from an Xcel compatriot in the audience. Blargh. We could do a 2hr talk on this alone. Real problem is very subtle. 20:24:32, 2014-10-28
Glustrom trying to explain discounting to the public. Ugh. Good luck with that. If only @drgrist were here… with a six pack. 20:21:48, 2014-10-28
Jackson thankfully admitting that carbon cost shouldn't be zero. Which it is now for planning purposes. Also, 111d rules coming from @EPA 20:19:36, 2014-10-28
Also it's standard in the industry. Totally crazy, but standard. 20:17:03, 2014-10-28
Holy crap… Jackson says she's unaware of any fuel discounting in the resource planning. Seriously? Its gigantic! It's EVERYTHING! 20:15:51, 2014-10-28
Glustrom: cost arguments are close to being moot. Renewables continue to decline in cost, fuels to rise. Also… discounting! 20:13:25, 2014-10-28
Would need to be addressed in the next Electric Resource Plan… which starts in 2015. 20:11:10, 2014-10-28
Dr. Joe of @ConservationCO asks: are you working on a plan that actually consistent with 2°C? At all? How seriously? AJ: no not really. 20:09:41, 2014-10-28
Glustrom: also, atmosphere demands 2020-2030 to retire them all for <2°C. That's the only timeframe that matters. 20:07:14, 2014-10-28
Glustrom: Can't do it tomorrow… but we could do it a whole lot faster than Xcel is doing it. More than anything we need a plan to do it! 20:05:01, 2014-10-28
Response is that it's too expensive, no technology available to do it right now. Also… public consensus isn't behind it in Colorado now. 20:03:32, 2014-10-28
Chris Hoffman from @EmpowerBoulder asking re: IPCC reports… How can you possibly justify spending any of our money on more fossil fuels? 20:01:33, 2014-10-28

Claiming reduction in emissions systemwide, but on annual basis, not cumulative. Comanche 3 = 500MT CO2 over its service lifetime. 19:43:16, 2014-10-28

Jackson expects load growth in the next 3 years, referring back to negotiated 2012 settlement for rates. Property taxes… blah blah blah. 19:37:22, 2014-10-28

If we’ve already mandated oversupply, the least we can do is require them to charge what the market will bear, given that oversupply. 19:25:35, 2014-10-20
We need to require unbundled parking actually cover the cost of providing the parking. Anything less is subsidized parking. 19:24:26, 2014-10-20

If that definition of “market rates” doesn’t stick, then what’s to keep them from charging $0.01/month and calling it unbundled? 19:17:13, 2014-10-20
@ericmbudd They’re getting a letter from the City Attorney’s office. The #Shoupistas may have to spot check some other developments. in reply to ericmbudd 19:15:44, 2014-10-20
They were charging $50/month for unbundled parking. If you can lease all the parking at $50 (which you can) then “market” is > $50/month. 19:13:34, 2014-10-20
If I recall correctly, the district requires parking to be unbundled and leased at “market” rates. But what are market rates in this case? 19:12:33, 2014-10-20
@ericmbudd Complaints from people during leasing process, who would rather pay an unavoidable $50 in rent than an avoidable $50 in parking. in reply to ericmbudd 19:11:35, 2014-10-20
