His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F.

Environmental justice communities are concerned they’ll be asked to accept new carbon capture projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans, who unanimously opposed the bill in the Senate, say it would add to consumers’ energy costs, with House GOP Whip Steve Scalise claiming it “wastes billions of dollars in Green New Deal slush funds.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rhodium’s Larsen, who crunched the numbers in the bill, said it would lead to consumers paying up to $112 less a year in energy costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As long as I’ve been in this game, progress on climate has always been higher costs for consumers. That’s not how this bill works,” Larsen said in an interview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Democrats didn’t have a vote to spare in the evenly divided Senate and Sen. Joe Manchin, a conservative Democrat from coal-producing West Virginia, had long dashed hopes of an ambitious deal.

In Southern California, a regional air quality district that has been running a similar incentive program since 2017, saw few takers until it increased rebates to 75% per tool.

Noe Bautista of Los Angeles has been on the front line of that pollution most of his life. He has worked on a gardening crew for decades—inhaling the formaldehyde, benzene and particulate matter in the equipment fumes, and enduring up to 100 decibels of noise and constant machine vibration all day, six days per week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s pretty bad,” says Bautista. “You have to be smelling that smoke all the time, and it can cause you a lot of health problems, allergies and getting sick all the time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now he runs Bautista’s Landscaping in western L.A., so he doesn’t run the gear himself anymore, but he sees his workers facing the same hazards every day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You can feel it right away,” he says. “You have a headache right away with all that smoke.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bautista is determined that his workers won’t endure the same health problems he’s had. \u003ca href=\"http://www.dir.ca.gov/dosh/\">Cal/OSHA\u003c/a> does have workplace safety guidelines in place and that helps, he says. But on many small gardening crews, most of the young workers either don’t know they should be wearing face masks or earplugs, or they refuse to wear them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why Bautista agreed to work with a nonprofit based in Santa Monica called \u003ca href=\"https://www.agza.net/\">American Green Zone Alliance\u003c/a> (AGZA), which is trying to get these crews to switch to electric machinery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dan Mabe heads the AGZA group. At an expansive backyard in western Los Angeles, he has spread out a wide lawnful of equipment for Bautista’s workers to test. Once they try out the green machinery -- which has less vibration, less noise and no fumes -- they’re hooked, says Mabe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And breakthroughs in technology have given the electric equipment additional power with longer battery life, so it makes sense financially to switch, too, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11315406\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/RS24161_IMG_4354-qut.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11315406 size-large\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/RS24161_IMG_4354-qut-1020x765.jpg\" alt=\"RS24161_IMG_4354-qut\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/RS24161_IMG_4354-qut-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/RS24161_IMG_4354-qut-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/RS24161_IMG_4354-qut-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/RS24161_IMG_4354-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/RS24161_IMG_4354-qut-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/RS24161_IMG_4354-qut-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/RS24161_IMG_4354-qut-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/RS24161_IMG_4354-qut-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/RS24161_IMG_4354-qut-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dan Mabe and Noe Bautista talk about replacing his crew's gas-powered equipment with electric versions. \u003ccite>(David Gorn/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Mabe has worked these gardening crews himself -- “since I was 7 years old\" -- and has the health scares and breathing problems to prove it.
