Republican budget bill dismantles climate law passed by Democrats
WASHINGTON -- The sprawling Republican budget bill approved by the Senate Tuesday removes a proposed tax on solar and wind energy projects but quickly phases out tax credits for wind, solar and other renewable energy. The Senate approved the bill 51-50 as President Donald Trump and GOP lawmakers move to dismantle the 2022 climate law passed by Democrats under former President Joe Biden. Vice President JD Vance broke a tie after three Republican senators voted no. The bill now moves to the House for final legislative approval. The excise tax on solar and wind generation projects was added to the Senate bill over the weekend, prompting bipartisan pushback from lawmakers as well as clean energy developers and advocates. The final bill removes the tax but mostly sticks with legislative language released late Friday night and would end incentives for clean energy sooner than a draft version unveiled two weeks ago. Democrats and environmental groups said the GOP plan would crush growth in the wind and solar industry and lead to a spike in Americans' utility bills. The measure jeopardizes hundreds of renewable energy projects slated to boost the nation's electric grid, they said. 'Despite limited improvements, this legislation undermines the very foundation of America's manufacturing comeback and global energy leadership,' said Abigail Ross Hopper, president and CEO of the Solar Energy Industries Association. If the bill becomes law, 'families will face higher electric bills, factories will shut down, Americans will lose their jobs, and our electric grid will grow weaker,'' she said. The American Petroleum Institute, the top lobbying group for the oil and gas industry, applauded the bill's passage. 'This historic legislation will help usher in a new era of energy dominance by unlocking opportunities for investment, opening lease sales and expanding access to oil and natural gas development,'' said Mike Sommers, the group's president and CEO. While Democrats complained that the bill would make it harder to get renewable energy to the electric grid, Republicans said the measure represents historic savings for taxpayers and supports production of traditional energy sources such as oil, natural gas and coal, as well as nuclear power, increasing reliability. In a compromise approved overnight, the bill allows wind and solar projects that begin construction within a year of the law's enactment to get a full tax credit without a deadline for when the projects are 'placed in service,'' or plugged into the grid. Wind and solar projects that begin later must be placed in service by the end of 2027 to get a credit. The bill retains incentives for technologies such as advanced nuclear, geothermal and hydropower through 2032. Changes to the renewable energy language — including removal of the excise tax on wind and solar — were negotiated by a group of Republican senators, including Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski and Iowa Sens. Joni Ernst and Chuck Grassley. Iowa is a top producer of wind power, while Murkowski is a longtime supporter of renewable energy as crucial for achieving energy independence, particularly for isolated rural communities in Alaska. Murkowski, who voted in favor of the final bill, called her decision-making process 'agonizing.' Changes that push back the timeline for terminating wind and solar credits mean that 'a good number' of Alaska projects would still qualify, she said. 'Again, it's not all we wanted. It could have been worse,' she told reporters Tuesday. Murkowski praised provisions calling for more oil lease sales in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and other areas in Alaska and increased revenue sharing. Rhode Island Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, the top Democrat on the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, called the bill a 'massively destructive piece of legislation' that 'increases costs for everyone by walloping the health care system, making families go hungry and sending utility bills through the roof.' The bill 'saddles our children and grandchildren with trillions and trillions of dollars in debt — all to serve giant corporations, fossil fuel polluters and billionaire Republican megadonors who are already among the richest people on the planet,' Whitehouse said. Wyoming Sen. John Barrasso, the No. 2 Senate Republican, hailed the bill for rescinding many elements of what he called the Biden administration's 'green new scam,' including electric vehicle tax credits that have allowed car owners to lower the purchase price of EVs by $7,500. The bill also blocks for 10 years a first-ever fee on excess methane emissions from oil and gas production. Industry groups fiercely opposed the methane fee, which was authorized by Democrats in the 2022 climate law but never implemented. The GOP bill also increases oil and gas leases on public lands and revives coal leasing in Wyoming and other states. 'Today, the Senate moved President Trump's agenda forward,'' said West Virginia Sen. Shelley Moore Capito, a Republican who chairs the Senate environment committee. Clean energy advocates were deeply disappointed by the bill, which they argue undoes much of the climate law before it fully takes effect. 'By eliminating a number of clean energy incentives and slashing others, this bill represents a significant step backward for America's energy future,' said Nathaniel Keohane, president of the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions, a nonprofit that seeks to accelerate the global transition to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. 'Curtailing incentives for electricity generated from wind and solar power is particularly shortsighted'' and will raise energy prices for households and businesses and threaten reliability of the electric grid, Keohane said.

Moon phase today: What the moon will look like on June 30, 2025
It's the last moon in June, and there are plenty of geological features to see, even without a telescope, all thanks to the ever-changing lunar cycle. The lunar cycle is a series of eight unique phases of the moon's visibility. The whole cycle takes about 29.5 days, according to NASA, and these different phases happen as the Sun lights up different parts of the moon whilst it orbits Earth. See what's happening with the moon tonight, June 30. As of Monday, June 30, the moon phase is Waxing Crescent. 29% of the moon will be lit up and visible to us on Earth (according to NASA's Daily Moon Observation). This also marks the fifth day of the current lunar cycle, and there's plenty to spot on the moon's surface, with or without binoculars. Similarly to last night, there are two geological wonders you can spot with just your naked eye. These are the Mare Crisium and the Mare Fecunditatis. The Mare Crisium is also known as the "Sea of Crises and takes up around 109,000 square miles. The Mare Fecunditatis ("Sea of Fertility") is an impact basin that was the first spot where an automated sample retrieval took place in 1970. If you have binoculars or a telescope, you'll also spot the Endymion Crater. NASA tells us this crater is 78 miles in diameter and is defined by its dark, flat floor caused by cooled lava. June's full moon was on June 11. The next full moon will be on July 10. Moon phases are caused by the 29.5-day cycle of the moon's orbit, which changes the angles between the Sun, Moon, and Earth. Moon phases are how the moon looks from Earth as it goes around us. We always see the same side of the moon, but how much of it is lit up by the Sun changes depending on where it is in its orbit. This is how we get full moons, half moons, and moons that appear completely invisible. There are eight main moon phases, and they follow a repeating cycle: New Moon - The moon is between Earth and the sun, so the side we see is dark (in other words, it's invisible to the eye). Waxing Crescent - A small sliver of light appears on the right side (Northern Hemisphere). First Quarter - Half of the moon is lit on the right side. It looks like a half-moon. Waxing Gibbous - More than half is lit up, but it's not quite full yet. Full Moon - The whole face of the moon is illuminated and fully visible. Waning Gibbous - The moon starts losing light on the right side. Last Quarter (or Third Quarter) - Another half-moon, but now the left side is lit. Waning Crescent - A thin sliver of light remains on the left side before going dark again.

Norfolk couple use crash barrier to stop cars hitting home
A couple said they installed a motorway-style crash barrier outside their home as they feared vehicles smashing through their wall and into their and Lyn Shelton from Beckhithe, Norfolk said speeding cars had already ended up in their garden on a number of occasions."It's a bit disconcerting to say the least," said Mr Shelton who wanted safety measures added to the road which runs through the tiny hamlet they live in near County Council said it was "aware of resident concerns" but had no plans to change the layout of the road. The couple – who described Beckhithe as "a lovely place to live" - said cars had crashed through their garden wall "two or three times", including one incident involving a drink driver."At nine o clock at night, he came steaming through – into the neighbour's car [then] into our wall," said Mr said the barrier he installed was "exactly the same as you'll get on the motorways" and could "stop a lorry going through"."It does give us peace of mind just in case anything was to come crashing through the wall," added Mrs Shelton. Neighbour Wendy Allsop warned speeding vehicles were a regular problem and said traffic calming measures like chicanes could make the road safer."We've got the rugby club just up the road and at weekends we have children crossing back and forth – that's a real danger for them with cars travelling up to 60 miles an hour," she Labour Police and Crime Commissioner, Sarah Taylor, said she was backing the residents' call for the county council to review the road.A spokesman for the council said there "are currently no plans to install chicanes at this location" and the road's speed limit had been "set in accordance with the speed strategy approved by the Department of Transport"."However, we continuously review our countywide road network safety measures and accident data and we will continue to engage with residents and police about matters of road safety," he added.
