@ericmbudd Flagstaff? in reply to ericmbudd 23:57:33, 2014-05-31
@ericmbudd Sun Rhyno Lite 36H laced 3x FTW 🙂 in reply to ericmbudd 16:49:37, 2014-05-31
@ericmbudd this is why I like wheels where I don't really need all the spokes. in reply to ericmbudd 16:27:04, 2014-05-31
A table of young women talking themselves into polyamory. Sadly, one of them apparently has a "leaky aura". #OnlyInBoulder 09:47:23, 2014-05-31
Nest thermostat could kill the market for peaking power plants. Great for consumers. Scary for regulated utilities: http://t.co/KaKYW8C7GD 09:06:57, 2014-05-31
The response I most often get when talking to "normal" people about how utility regulation works is something like "But that's ridiculous." 18:46:47, 2014-05-30
I do like me a good ol' fashioned conspiracy every once in a while. Keeps things interesting, and helps maintain the delusions of grandeur. 17:39:44, 2014-05-30

@schmangee Or is it just a random walk with a cliff nearby. in reply to schmangee 17:22:14, 2014-05-30
@ericmbudd Spend $9k/yr on car that gets 30mpg. Drive 15k miles. 500gal gas at $4/gal, less than 1/4 overall cost. So who cares? in reply to ericmbudd 10:37:43, 2014-05-30
@alexsteffen I am grateful for the time lapse eyes that working in astronomy, geology, space exploration and planetary science gave me. in reply to AlexSteffen 10:34:32, 2014-05-30
@ladamic Hey, are you going to be living in MI this fall? I'm planning to come to the @NASCO_Coops conference, and would love to say hi 🙂 10:21:52, 2014-05-30
@ericmbudd @streetsblognet @transitmiami Really? I've always been shocked at how *inelastic* demand for driving is, regardless of gas prices in reply to ericmbudd 10:20:27, 2014-05-30
@mikesalisbury78 And you can have this hashtag for free: #SolarRoadRage in reply to MikeSalisbury78 10:18:37, 2014-05-30
@mikesalisbury78 Please, the more characters the better. I would read 5000 words if you wrote them. in reply to MikeSalisbury78 10:18:02, 2014-05-30
@mitchellbyars Obviously not trial related, but gosh wouldn't it be nice if Boulder's cops were people wanted to (and could) live in Boulder in reply to mitchellbyars 10:15:53, 2014-05-30
@ericmbudd @streetsblogusa @nhtsagov Coincidentally, about the amount @CeresNews says we need to invest in renewables each year to avoid 2°C in reply to ericmbudd 10:14:17, 2014-05-30

@mikesalisbury78 Also, will you please write a detailed and deliciously snarky takedown of the solar roads meme? So I don't have to? 😉 in reply to MikeSalisbury78 10:03:31, 2014-05-30
@mikesalisbury78 Even more millions available by reverting to a society where kids, uh, walk and bike to school. in reply to MikeSalisbury78 10:02:57, 2014-05-30

@ramez @alexsteffen Mmm, gas less than doubles its price at $80/ton. Still w/in historic price range. Still competitive for peaking/firming. in reply to ramez 00:33:59, 2014-05-30
@ramez @alexsteffen I suspect various industry "expectations" are shaped by prices they can deal with. Oil will be ok at $80/ton = $0.80/gal in reply to ramez 15:22:23, 2014-05-29

About the only thing our highways and the necessary renewable energy infrastructure have in common is the gross land area they occupy. 12:52:44, 2014-05-26
The fact that solar roads have crowd-funded $1.2M makes me despair for any kind of reasonable renewable energy discussion in the US. *sigh* 12:40:56, 2014-05-26
Glad to see ADU/OAU fixes in the "early wins" section of housing strategy. Sad to see no mention of cooperative housing. 10:23:06, 2014-05-26
The type of housing we can provide more of is traditionally "less attractive to families", but it doesn't have to be. Need more co-housing. 10:17:04, 2014-05-26
But half of in-commuters would like to live in a townhouse in Boulder. A third would be up for a duplex/triplex/4-plex. We can supply those. 09:54:36, 2014-05-26
Survey says: In commuters have slightly higher incomes than Boulder residents. Housing preferences often drive the choice to commute. 09:52:58, 2014-05-26

@alexsteffen @ramez And honestly, escaping sunk coal costs looks easy compared to sunk transportation/land-use costs. Ugh. in reply to AlexSteffen 14:06:59, 2014-05-10
@ramez @alexsteffen Unfortunately starting that discussion makes everyone (greens, utilities, regulators, legislators) very uncomfortable. in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:05:15, 2014-05-10
@ramez @alexsteffen We need a robust regulatory discussion on writing off sunk coal costs gracefully, rather than in unpredictable crisis. in reply to ramez 14:03:13, 2014-05-10

@alexsteffen @ramez $50/ton is $0.50/gallon. Clearly in liquid hydrocarbon based transportation/land-use system, nowhere near high enough. in reply to AlexSteffen 13:50:12, 2014-05-10
@alexsteffen Concern. That's a gentle way to put it! Pricing alone is simple. Fixing the markets prices would exist in is a pain in the ass. in reply to AlexSteffen 13:13:10, 2014-05-10
@ramez I wonder how that compares to the ag subsidies per burger for the corn and soy the cow ate. in reply to ramez 00:39:10, 2014-05-10
@andrew_leach Cost seems to be a distant secondary concern when we face more familiar existential threats (e.g. war). Why is this different? in reply to andrew_leach 22:42:45, 2014-05-09
@andrew_leach I also tend to question whether the lens of economic efficiency is the most useful one for this problem so late in the game. in reply to andrew_leach 22:40:31, 2014-05-09
@andrew_leach That sounds interesting. So far I find the right tail of abatement far less frightening than the right tail of climate change. in reply to andrew_leach 22:32:02, 2014-05-09
@andrew_leach On decision making under deep uncertainty, I liked the @worldbank paper that @drgrist reviewed here: http://t.co/UCYtAPanZG in reply to andrew_leach 22:22:14, 2014-05-09
@andrew_leach The real question to me is, how do we, as a civilization, want to respond to uncertainty? How many bullets in the revolver? in reply to andrew_leach 22:16:19, 2014-05-09
All of this makes it impossible for me to listen to arguments about the relative costs of renewables vs. fossil fuels with a straight face. 21:16:00, 2014-05-09
Also, with a low discount rate & risk tolerance, fixed-price wind, solar, & energy efficiency become extremely cheap, even ignoring carbon. 21:04:35, 2014-05-09
Do you want civilization to persist with high probability? Then you have a low discount rate & risk tolerance, and thus a high carbon price. 21:02:25, 2014-05-09
The point I'm trying to make isn't that carbon prices are meaningless… but rather that they are mostly value statements. 21:00:54, 2014-05-09
@garyridesbikes The Pearl St. Mall in @downtownboulder is another pleasant example. in reply to GaryRidesBikes 20:41:25, 2014-05-09

Lots of tacit suggestions that we should require or encourage many more city employees to live in the city itself, for all kinds of reasons. 16:29:44, 2014-04-28
Surprising amount of awareness that our community engagement is strong, but very narrow. The same voices are loud in all of our discussions. 14:31:55, 2014-04-28
Denver metro has a higher proportion of its economy exposed to river flooding than any other city in the US according to SwissRe. 13:36:59, 2014-04-28

Wow. Carl Castillo's table thinks aging population is a strength. Since rich old white people are so good at adaptation & political change. 12:28:44, 2014-04-28
Not sure folks apreciate the spectrum of possible environmental degradation, poverty… Especially given the other cities in this pool. 12:25:45, 2014-04-28
Hopefully all these perceptions will actually be contrasted with some meaningful quantitative observations. 12:18:24, 2014-04-28
Lots of discussion about the interconnection between these risk factors. And also, everyone is hypersensitive to the "transient" population. 12:16:21, 2014-04-28

Boulder definitely an outlier among the cities chosen, very small and very wealthy. 10:17:12, 2014-04-28
Focus so far from the city is almost entirely on climate, natural disasters, infrastructure. Very little on social/economic resilience. 10:14:25, 2014-04-28

5. Interesting that the power of making it awesome is greater than the raw destination density alone (x^2 vs. x) 01:18:51, 2014-04-20
4. So if you double density and double the distance people are willing to walk by making it awesome, they have access to 8x as many places. 01:17:24, 2014-04-20
2. Increasing density relative to typical US cities increases the number of destinations within a given range linearly. 01:16:20, 2014-04-20
3. But people will also walk further in these streets, again increasing the number of destinations within reach quadratically. 01:04:59, 2014-04-20
1. People are willing to walk further in streets that are engaging and beautiful. This isn't just an aesthetic consideration. 00:56:26, 2014-04-20

@cfenno3 I had no idea you were in the Twitterverse! in reply to cfenno3 20:46:01, 2014-04-14
Sounds like the @36commuting coalition is coming down in favor of the arterial BRT, especially on the Diagonal Highway, Boulder to Longmont. 20:44:14, 2014-04-14
@sugarmags3 And hell, maybe I could even enjoyably bike out to meet you at a sweet coffee shop with no parking at 55th. in reply to sugarmags3 20:41:09, 2014-04-14
Real BRT in the Arapahoe corridor w/ intense, human scale redevelopment would be awesome. Maybe @sugarmags3 would bus into town then! 20:39:19, 2014-04-14
We are not going to "balance" the needs of E. Arapahoe as a road to other cities, and a place in its own right. That's a stroad. They suck. 20:33:00, 2014-04-14
Something I'm actually excited about… joint Planning/TAB work on reimagining the East Arapahoe corridor. Land Use + Transportation = Win! 20:16:26, 2014-04-14
@cbruntlett @spinlister @bikesharing @neil21 The folks on @WarmShowers are wonderful for getting ahold of a bike in a foreign city! in reply to cbruntlett 19:48:32, 2014-04-14
Our whole toolkit is band-aids. The real problems are strip malls big fast roads in the center of town. Underpasses don't fix them. 19:46:02, 2014-04-14
If we spent the $5.4M on changing the character of Baseline instead — slowing traffic, narrowing it, making it awesome — what could we get? 19:34:24, 2014-04-14
Looking at various options for the $5.4M underpass that will cross Baseline between CU and the Basemar shopping center. 19:21:03, 2014-04-14
The danger of listening to the public when they are asking for something that they can't have. Like building your way out of congestion. 19:14:06, 2014-04-14
So diving headfirst into expanding paid and managed parking districts is worth ~$8M. 19:08:04, 2014-04-14
Especially since (with a well designed city) a huge proportion of the local trips can be done under human power. 18:42:12, 2014-04-14
Regional transit/BRT investments are better for VMT, GHG, housing+transportation cost reductions, jobs access. Sounds like the winner to me. 18:41:26, 2014-04-14
We used to highlight reduced per-rider service costs w/ county-wide EcoPass, but @RideRTD said "What, you want even cheaper service!?!" 18:39:26, 2014-04-14
.@NelsonNygaard modeling suggests paid parking districts would increase transit use by 1/6 as much as $50M service investment. Politics vs $ 18:32:20, 2014-04-14
Depends what end you look from. 20x the biking rate as US overall? But vast majority of folks drive for most trips. Pretty similar to US. 18:29:14, 2014-04-14
Oh the cognitive dissonance: "Boulder travels differently!" but also most people are "interested but concerned" and unwilling to bike. 18:25:51, 2014-04-14
Public and policymakers walk so little in town that we have to take them out on Walk Audits and show them what works, and what doesn't. 18:22:14, 2014-04-14

Working in space taught me how profound a wilderness it is. Far vaster & less hospitable than the Pacific or Sahara. We're on our own here. 01:56:26, 2014-04-12
I think my low risk tolerance comes from human powered wilderness travel. Months without people, in places that do not care about my needs. 01:49:34, 2014-04-12
I think my low discount rate comes from Carl Sagan, and from studying astronomy and geology. My reference timescales are long. 01:47:24, 2014-04-12
The prices of so many important things are powerfully determined by discount rates and risk tolerance. Why are both of mine so low? 01:45:52, 2014-04-12
Which isn't to say our land use patterns are good! We should be trying to induce 200% or 300% increases in demand, not 20% or 30%! 14:12:09, 2014-04-11
I.e. @RideRTD is useless in the county, relative to the city. Which isn't too surprising, given our land-use patterns & service investments. 14:10:49, 2014-04-11
What's amazing to me about those @RideRTD boarding numbers is that 93% of all @BoulderCounty boardings happen within @bouldercolorado. 14:08:50, 2014-04-11
@ridertd @bouldercounty @bouldercolorado What I'm wowed by here is the proportion of county-wide use that's within the city of Boulder. in reply to ZaneSelvans 14:03:29, 2014-04-11
@ramez Putting both offensive and defensive responsibilities within the same organization ensures at least one mission will fail. in reply to ramez 14:00:56, 2014-04-11
And the whole system provides better service at about a 15% reduction in cost per boarding overall if I recall correctly. 12:41:34, 2014-04-11
Induced transit demand here isn't bad. It's the whole point if the program! 12:37:56, 2014-04-11
Base cost estimate is just all the revenues RTD gets from route fares today, plus an estimate of the cost to meet induced demand. 12:25:35, 2014-04-11
Induced demand expected to be much greater in the county, because many fewer Eco Passes available out there than in the city. 12:22:51, 2014-04-11
Today we have 8.45 million yearly @RideRTD boardings in @bouldercounty, of which 7.85 million are in the city of @bouldercolorado. Wow. 12:20:48, 2014-04-11

.@VaclavSmil on limits. Boulder's laws against shared housing outlaw those of us who want to use less and live more: https://t.co/mcWhVu2qKN 13:51:07, 2014-04-01
@ericmbudd Have I sent you this beautiful @VaclavSmil rant on CCS? https://t.co/lr1Iac8NC3 Sometimes I have to watch it to feel sane. in reply to ericmbudd 13:34:39, 2014-04-01
If you buy out one link in the value chain, bankrupting the rest, who eats their sunk costs? 13:26:11, 2014-04-01
How much are all the coal mineral rights in the US worth? All the mining companies? Railroads? Power plants? Atmospheric dumping rights? 13:24:57, 2014-04-01
But power plants are just one piece of the coal value chain. Are others cheaper/easier to purchase, and just as disruptive to combustion? 13:23:33, 2014-04-01
Managing the retirement process gracefully, rather than allowing it to collapse in potentially costly chaos. 13:21:52, 2014-04-01
Thinking about how you get coal plants retired early — i.e. who eats the sunk costs. Rate-payers? Tax-payers? Investors? 13:21:04, 2014-04-01
@j4cob @httpseverywhere Yeah, I don't know what changed, but it seems to be working again now. in reply to j4cob 13:09:17, 2014-04-01
If @BLMNational used @OMBPress social cost of carbon, they wouldn't be able to lease any coal. To the public, it's worth more in the ground. 00:58:54, 2014-04-01
@kurtklein Yeah, you can just imagine the look on his face as he's saying that. "What was I thinking?" it says. in reply to kurtklein 00:23:31, 2014-04-01
Is this Government v. Corporate espionage? Part of me thinks it would be great to have more of that. Or does it? http://t.co/pxS8hUbLUv 00:01:02, 2014-04-01

@neil21 Much more from me on this here: http://t.co/8Ipf3QhrzD (including a section just about BC's tax, if you search/scroll). 21:34:51, 2014-03-31
@neil21 I ask b/c posts like this: http://t.co/WP5FcVp02Y don't even mention land-use/transportation policy impacts, and it infuriates me. 21:33:30, 2014-03-31
@neil21 Which do you think is responsible for decreased CO2 emissions/gasoline use in BC? Carbon tax, or land-use/transportation policies? 21:32:17, 2014-03-31
We should just buy out the entire US coal industry and shut it down for good. $50B would be a small price to pay… http://t.co/Qegj3ztnHZ 21:26:50, 2014-03-31
Am I really the only climate wonk that finds a causal link between BC's carbon tax and emissions (gasoline use) reduction tenuous at best? 20:48:10, 2014-03-31

The power of subsidies: more photosynthesis in Iowa than the Amazon. To cheap meat, lousy biofuels, & HFCS! http://t.co/DWnqho4lgz @NASA_EO 11:17:07, 2014-03-31

@sugarmags3 Went for bike ride. Ate big brunch. Took nap. Taxes did not end up done. What am I doing wrong? in reply to sugarmags3 14:53:03, 2014-03-30
@ericmbudd Why not just phase them out over 5-10 years? Also, have you seen "The Informant"? About ADM price fixing scandal… in reply to ericmbudd 13:34:42, 2014-03-30

@ericmbudd Ohgawdno, I was just talking shit. We should kill all the big 5 (soy, corn, cotton, rice, wheat) subsidies dead. in reply to ericmbudd 14:34:01, 2014-03-29
@ericmbudd What if we just tax it as much as required to subsidize the corn in the first place and see what happens… Also, ethanol. in reply to ericmbudd 14:19:37, 2014-03-29
