Excerpt from the Substack Distilled:

In the last few months, the Biden administration has quietly passed multiple federal policies that will transform the United States economy and wipe out billions of tons of future greenhouse gas emissions. 

The new policies have received little attention outside of wonky climate circles. And that is a problem.

Earlier this year, I wrote that Biden has done more to mitigate climate change than any President before him. For decades, environmentalists tried and failed to convince lawmakers to pass even the most marginal climate policies. It wasn’t until Biden took office that the logjam broke and the climate policies flowed. And yet few American voters are hearing this story in an election year of huge consequence.

It’s been two and a half months since I wrote that article. In that short time, the Biden administration has passed a handful of climate policies that will collectively cut more than 10 billion tons of planet-warming pollution over the next three decades, more than the annual emissions of India, Russia, Japan, South Korea, Canada, Saudi Arabia, and the entire continent of Europe—combined.

One climate policy that flew under the radar recently was the administration's latest energy efficiency rule, unveiled at the beginning of May. The new rules will reduce the amount of energy that water heaters use by encouraging manufacturers to sell models with more efficient heat pump technology. The new regulation is expected to save more energy than any federal regulation in history. 

Most people give little thought to how the water in their homes is heated, but water heaters are the second-largest consumer of energy in the average American home and one of the largest sources of climate pollution in the country. 

A few days before the administration announced its water heater efficiency rules, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced another sweeping policy.

According to the new rules, existing coal power plants will need to either shut down or install carbon capture technology capable of removing 90% of their carbon pollution. The policy will also require any new natural gas power plants that provide baseload power—the ones that run throughout the day and night, as opposed to the peaker plants that only run for a small fraction of hours in the year—to install carbon capture technology. 

The new power sector rules are effectively a death blow to coal power in America, which has slowly faded over the last two decades but still emits more carbon emissions than almost every country in the world. 

The water heater rules and power plant regulations will help the country meet its goal of cutting emissions by 50% by 2030. But impactful as they will be, they weren’t the most important climate policy that the Biden administration passed in the last two months. 

That honor goes to the EPA’s tailpipe rules, which are set to transform the auto industry over the next decade.

Today the transportation sector is the largest source of climate pollution in the United States. Within the sector, passenger cars and trucks are the biggest contributors to emissions. While electric vehicle adoption has grown in recent years, America lags behind many other countries in decarbonizing its vehicle stock. 

The EPA’s new rules will force automakers to reduce the amount of pollution and carbon emissions that come from their vehicles. The federal policy doesn’t specifically mandate that automakers produce EVs or stop selling gas-powered cars but instead regulates the average carbon emissions per mile of a manufacturer's entire fleet over the next decade. That means automakers can still sell gas-guzzling, carbon-spewing trucks in 2035. They’ll just need to sell a lot more EVs or plug-in hybrids to bring their average fleet emissions down if they do.

Like the power plant rules, the EPA’s new auto regulations are designed to avoid being thrown out by a conservative and hostile Supreme Court.

Day 3: Gloves

Summary: Din offers the reader his gloves, and their first look at his skin.

Warnings: none, language, briefest mention of past abuse

WC: 1k!

It’s easy to forget how cold space is. In the past few months you’ve been on the Crest, between the baby and the roaring, industrial sized heater, it’s been toasty, almost warm. You’d almost forgotten it could be cold. Until, of course, the ancient industrial sized heater broke.

It wasn’t too bad at first. Mando was quick to find any spare blankets he had on the ship and pass them between you and the baby, hoping to create any semblance of warmth. Then the baby himself helped, as you attempted to rock him to sleep for hours, the green little guy getting fussy from the cold. Now, with the kid settled into his pram and the lack of body heat on your hands, you’ve done it. You’ve remembered how cold space is.

You’re doing ok. You’ve seated yourself on the co-pilot’s chair, knees pulled up to your chest and your hands wrapped underneath your clothes, tucked under your armpits. Your face is half obscured under the neck of your sweater, and you’re attempting to creative some kind of insulation by just continuously blowing your breath against your skin. You haven’t decided if you can die from carbon monoxide poison this way but, fuck it, you’re too cold to care.

Your hands, that’s the issue right now. You hesitate to say agony but—let’s be real, it’s agony. You’ve been frostbitten before, so now your fingers and joints of your hands are aching under the pain of the chill in the ship, and no matter how hard you press your hands to your skin, there’s no relief.

“What are you doing?”

It’s Mando’s—Din’s, as you’ve just recently learned, voice that breaks you from your disassociation, offering the briefest respite from the pain. He’s asking you in a tone that’s equal parts concern, confusion, and jest. Over the past few months you’ve learned it’s his feeble attempt at teasing.

“Trying to warm up, not all of us come with an insulation system,” you poke back, and he settles beside you in his chair, his helmet sending that searing gaze towards you. You shrink into yourself even more beneath it, somehow feeling both intimated and bewitched by it.

Ok, bewitched is just a better word for saying you’ve got a massive-fucking-crush on the guy, but that’s beside the point.

“What’s wrong with your hands?”

“Nothing, what gave you that impression?”

He cocks his head to the side in a way you’ve begub to translate as “really?”

“Just something from when I was younger, it’s nothing.”

He pauses for a moment, then extends his own hand in one of the rare few moments of touch he’s offered. “Let me see.”

You’re in hell. If there is a maker, they’re being cruel. Do you remove your hands from the tiny bit of warmth you have, or reject Din in a rare moment of vulnerability?

The choice is immediate, and you rip your hands from their confine and tentatively place them in his.

They don’t look bad, an angry red at the joints and the cold has made you curl them inwards, but they aren’t blackened or cracked like some of the frostbite you’ve seen. He must notice the difference, and moves to gently trace the joint of one of your fingers. His words are slow, deliberate, “How did this happen to you?”

You melt into his touch, “locked out of my house during a snowstorm a while back, he was an asshole.”

Din tenses at that, just barely noticeable, and pauses his trace. You worry you’ve offended him, and he removes his hands, only to slowly, carefully remove the leather gloves you’ve always seen on his hands. “Here, you take ‘em.”

“Din, please, I can’t, I’ll be fine.”

“I want you to wear them.”

It’s the only encouragement you need, and you pulll them on quickly. You try to conceal how rapidly your heart is beating as you peak at the newly exposed skin of his hands.

He’s tan, tanner than you’d thought, with skin that looks warm and inviting. Calluses dot the underside of his palms, and he brings his fingers together, wringing them slowly. It dawns on you that you’re not sure if anyone has ever even seen his hands.

“How are your hands not always sweating?”

Nice. Real smooth. He’s gonna love that.

“Maybe that’s why I always keep them on.”

“Are we doing humor now?”

“Depends, how am I doing at it?”

You laugh, and so does he, and you decide you’d quite like to hear that sound forever. You stretch your fingers, warming nicely in the suede of Din’s giant gloves.

“Thank you, for these, I needed it.”

“Don’t mention it.” He unwinds his hands, laying them on his knees as he turns his attention back to you.

You’re not sure if you’re high on knowing that you’re wearing Din’s clothes, or the ecstasy of finally having feeling in your fingers, but your hand is quickly going to poke at his, your fingers dotting the smooth contours of his own.

You half expect him to pull back, but he doesn’t, letting you play with his fingers and trace his skin. It seems easy with the barrier of fabric between you. You ignore the fact that your stomach is churning and your brain is going ohshitohshitohshit.

He’s got a scar along the inside of his wrist, you can only see a bit of it, white and gnarled. You reach out to trace it, careful not to go beyond the skin that’s already exposed.

“When I was just learning to use my flamethrower, things got a little…dicey.”

The image of a young Din accidentally torching himself makes you smile, but it’s quickly dimmed by the realization that the man beside is literally wearing clothes that kill people. You flex your hand in his glove and realize, I guess you are too.

“Do you feel better?”

You’re rocketed back to reality by his voice and you nod, “yes, thank you.”

He stands, but not before tapping the bottom of your chin with his thumb and pointer finger, the skin on skin contact rocketing through you. “Keep em’ till we land, they suit you mesh’la.”

He leaves quietly, leaving you sitting in the cold and silent space, thinking of foreign words with pretty sounds and warm suede around your fingers.

Epel Facts Part 9: Epel's Hometown (pt2)

Harveston's local market offers berries, vegetables, wild greens and mushrooms from the mountain, “So locals generally don’t spend money on wild plants.”

When Grim announces that he wants to go eat everything the mountain has to offer Epel explains, “Folks like you are why nobody shares the good foragin’ spots with other people.”

Forestry is another big industry for Harveston due to the trees that surround it, and Epel says that they are famous for certain whistles carved into birds: “They say if you blow on one when you’re feeling frightened or down in the dumps, it’ll perk you right up.”

The village also makes its own soap. Epel says the word “Kokko” means “bonfire” in an ancient Shaftlands language, and that is the name of the village’s market.

Apple pies seem to be a big thing for local families, offered for free to visitors during the annual festival.

Epel says that “pretty much every house in Harveston” has a cuckoo clock, and the village also produces a pretty big garlic crop: “Our goods aren’t super fancy or trendy, but they’re top quality and made with pride!”

Epel is also proud of the village’s nature.

Epel even gives a lecture about stucco and the limestone used in the building of the local homes, saying that people call Harveston houses “homes that breathe.”

He explains how they preserve produce by burying it in a snow inside of barns and they don’t use fairies for their fireplaces (they also have central heating and heaters) and burn wood themselves, because “It’d be hard to get fairies to tend our fires way out here in the sticks.” (Insinuating that fairies prefer more metropolitan areas?)

Epel says that they always have a fire going in the wintertime that they use to cook stews, which is a tradition from when gas was harder to come by than it is now.

People in Harveston may not be particularly tall: when Idia, Jade and Sebek all get struck by tree branches during the race Sebek comments that they should do a better job of clearing the source of obstacles and Epel responds, “We generally don’t get people as tall as you!”

[kiltedkeefe]

It's the 21st century and I'm dealing with wood heating like it's still pre industrial times. There's supplemental electric heaters for places like the bathroom and a propane burner to keep the roof clear, but otherwise I'm dealing with cords and ricks of splits and rounds. Sharp axe, sharp hatchet, dead blow hammer, splitting wedges, ash can, hearth broom, ash scuttle, aaaaaaaagh.

[hypaalicious]

I’m back and had enough in my “fun money” category to preorder the book! Hehehe a leetle chrimas present for me. I should probably try to finish the other books I have on the backburner before yours arrives so I can enjoy it fully. I have a few months to do so anyhow

Also, I would appreciate seeing some of the spicy director’s cuts of the book once it’s out ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Also also, I wish I had that kind of adaptable super power. If the temps go anywhere below 50F I’m slapping on layers. I used a jacket or blanket in my workplace through the summer bc they kept the AC on blast all the time! The only upside is that I can steal heat from my personal heater of a boyfriend and I can be his icepack girlfriend lmao —💕

Honestly, I’m really touched you were able to do so, and once again, I hope you enjoy it when it drops!

We… not gone talk about the books EYE have sitting around that I haven’t touched 🥲 I used to belong to BotM and I fell behind in reading but refused to end my subscription until i finally had to let it go. I still have books on the shelf I need to dig into! The problem is setting aside time to do it. 😭 like… we’re in an age now where we pick up a phone and doomscroll for entertainment and it’s difficult to break that habit to read a book. It’s also hard for me to find books that match up with what I wanna read. Cause for me it be like:

Book description: (a non-white lead going on some fantastical journey with magic and friendships with an interesting twist)

Me: omg this sounds fucking bomb

Book description: YA fiction

Me: *sighs, closes tab* I don’t wanna read about teens, pls

Like, I’m looking for bangers like Jacqueline Carey’s work to immerse myself into but they ain’t doing that no more, I fear. YA has taken over much of mainstream publishing to the point where if I wanna read something featuring adults at something higher than a 5th or 6th grade reading level then I get shunted to things that don’t have the plot lines or writing style I crave. Kinda why I wrote my book in the first place because ONCE AGAIN, if I don’t see what i want to read…

I just didn’t expect anyone to care, LOL! No agent wanted to sign me because I wasn’t “a good fit”. I got more rejections than I can count. But welp, here we are!

Also, I was able to fit more steamy stuff in the otome. 😈 The VN is most definitely going to be where I expand upon things I couldn’t in the novel or fit in scenes I had to slash to keep word count and content in line with industry standards. CAN’T NOBODY TELL ME I’M TOO EXTRA IN MY OWN GAME, CAN THEY??

Okay so my old work def kept the AC on too damn high and I was clowned for being wrapped up in a fleece blanket at my desk in order to survive 💀 I still can get cold, it just has to be in some extreme circumstances like I’m outside in a tank and shorts when it’s 40 degrees out and the wind is blowing hard LOL! I sleep like a furnace and had to get a cooling blanket just so I don’t wake up covered in sweat. I freeze my poor husband out of the bedroom cause if it ain’t a fridge then I get too hot really fast, feel sick, and can’t sleep. I even hop out of a hot shower to stand in front of the AC to cool down. Is this early menopause or something???? 😭

Electric Heater for industrial use

Industrial electric heaters are designed to produce a substantial amount of heat, often ranging from several kilowatts to hundreds of kilowatts. This makes them suitable for heating large warehouses, factories, and other industrial facilities.

[rjzimmerman]

Excerpt from this story from Inside Climate News:

Inside a cinder block office building perhaps best known for the Hindu temple and table tennis club next door, a startup company is testing what may be one of the hottest new developments in clean energy technology.

At the back of a small warehouse laboratory buzzing with fans and motors, an MIT spinoff company called Electrified Thermal Solutions is operating something its founders call the Joule Hive, a thermal battery the size of an elevator.  

The Hive is a large, insulated metal box loaded with dozens of white-hot ceramic bricks that convert electricity to heat at temperatures up to 1800 degrees Celsius—well beyond the melting point of steel—and with enough thermal mass to hold the heat for days.

As the price of renewable energy continues to plummet, one of the biggest challenges for the clean energy transition is finding a way to convert electricity to high temperature heat so societies don’t have to continue burning coal or natural gas to power heavy industries. Another thorny issue is finding a way to store energy—in this case heat—for when the sun doesn’t shine and the wind doesn’t blow.

“If you are running an industrial plant where you’re making cement or steel or glass or ceramics or chemicals or even food or beverage products, you burn a lot of fossil fuels,” Daniel Stack, chief executive of Electrified Thermal Solutions, said. “Our mission is to decarbonize industry with electrified heat.”

The industrial sector accounts for nearly one-fourth of all direct greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S., which drive climate change, according to the EPA. Thermal batteries powered by renewable energy could reduce roughly half of industry’s emissions, according to a 2023 report by the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions, a nonprofit, and its affiliated Renewable Thermal Collaborative. 

Additional emissions come from chemical reactions, such as carbon dioxide that is formed as an unwanted byproduct during cement production, and from methane that leaks or is intentionally vented from natural gas pipes and other equipment. 

The challenge to replacing fossil fuel combustion as the go to source for heat, is that there aren’t a lot of good options available to produce high temperature heat from electricity, Stack said. Electric heaters, like the wires that turn red hot in a toaster, work well at low temperatures but quickly burn out at higher temperatures. Other, less common materials like molybdenum and silicon carbide heaters can withstand higher temperatures, but are prohibitively expensive.

As a grad student at MIT, Stack wondered if firebricks, the bricks commonly used in residential fireplaces and industrial kilns, could be a less expensive, more durable solution. Bricks do not typically conduct electricity, but by slightly altering the recipe of the metal oxides used to make them, he and ETS co-founder Joey Kabel were able to create bricks that could essentially take the place of wires to conduct electricity and generate heat.

“There’s no exotic metals in here, there’s nothing that’ll burn out,” Stack said standing next to shelves lined with small samples, or “coupons,” of brick that he and his team have tested to find the ones with the best heating properties.

Exploring Emerging Applications: Thermoformed Plastics Market Dynamics

Thermoformed Plastics: An Essential Part of Modern Packaging Introduction to Thermoforming Thermoforming is a plastic forming process where a plastic sheet is heated to a pliable forming temperature, formed to a specific shape in a mold, and trimmed to create a usable product. The key advantages of thermoforming are its ability to produce complex, high-volume shapes in a single continuous process. Some common thermoformed products include food and medical packaging, containers, automotive interior parts, signs and displays. Sheet Forming Process In the thermoforming process, plastic sheet material such as PVC, polystyrene, polyethylene, polypropylene, or acrylic is used. The sheet is first heated to high temperature using infrared heaters until it softens and sag. It is then placed over a matched mold cavity and a vacuum is applied from below, forcing the softened sheet tightly against the mold surface. The sheet cools and hardens to the exact shape of the mold profile before being trimmed and ejected. This allows consistent high-volume production of parts with complex 3D shapes. Applications in Food Packaging Thermoformed plastics play a crucial role in food packaging where packaging needs to be inexpensive yet functional. Common examples include: - Meat and produce trays - Polystyrene and polypropylene trays of varying sizes are used in supermarkets for packaging sliced meats, cheeses, fruits and vegetables. - Cereal liner bags - PET and polypropylene sheets are thermoformed into shape-retaining liner bags that fit inside cereal boxes for moisture and freshness protection. - Egg cartons - Recyclable polystyrene cartons thermoformed into compartments provide protection for transporting eggs. - Takeout containers - Disposable clamshell containers made from polystyrene or polypropylene are used ubiquitously for serving and carrying out foods from restaurants and fast food outlets. - Yogurt and snack cups - PET, polypropylene or polylactic acid (PLA) cups are thermoformed for packaging single-serve yogurt, pudding, juice boxes and snack products. Sustainability Considerations As concerns grow around plastic waste and sustainability, thermoformers are increasingly focusing on use of recycled resins and design of packaging for recyclability. Some key trends include: - Incorporation of post-consumer recycled (PCR) content in packaging to promote circular economy. - Mono-material thermoformed containers made of PET, PP or PE for improved sorting and recycling. - Reduced plastic thickness and shaping features to minimize material usage. - Compostable thermoformed products made from PLA or paper for composting or recycling streams. The future of thermoformed plastic packaging lies in sustainable design, efficient processes, and alternative biodegradable resins to balance performance, cost and environmental impact. Continued innovation is ensuring this technology remains relevant in a changing regulatory

landscape.

In Summary, thermoformed plastics have become integral components of modern packaging solutions, offering versatility, durability, and cost-effectiveness. This manufacturing process involves heating plastic sheets and molding them into various shapes to create packaging for a wide range of products. From food and beverages to consumer goods and medical supplies, blow moulding plastics provide lightweight and customizable packaging options that protect products during storage and transportation. Their ability to conform to specific shapes and sizes, along with their transparency and barrier properties, make them ideal for showcasing and preserving goods while reducing packaging waste. As a vital element in modern packaging, blow moulding plastics continue to play a crucial role in meeting the evolving needs of industries worldwide.
