☀️💨 Wind and solar are growing in popularity, but they can’t always provide steady power since the wind isn't always blowing and the sun can't always shine. Robin Gaster says gas is key to fill these variables until better energy storage is developed. https://lnkd.in/ea7SF7pZ

Most Americans live with the world at their fingertips—shopping, staying connected, and accessing endless information with just a tap. But when it comes to proving identity, we’re still stuck reaching for physical IDs. As more of our daily lives shift online, the absence of digital identity solutions is becoming a bigger problem. While countries around the world are moving ahead, the U.S. lags behind, with only a few states offering mobile driver’s licenses. Senior Policy Manager Ash Johnson explains how we can advance widespread adoption of #digitalIDs: ☑️ States should update laws to accept digital IDs. ☑️ Congress should pass the Improving Digital Identity Act and establish a grant program to help states. ☑️ Federal agencies should start accepting government-issued digital IDs. ☑️ The State Department should form agreements with other countries to accept each other’s digital IDs. It’s time for a national initiative to give all Americans convenient and #secure digital ID access. 🪪📲 🔗 Check out the full report on adopting a national standard for digital IDs: https://lnkd.in/gSH9Mevj #techpolicy #techinnovation
