ADD Energy Thread in Climate.Data.Gov #341

Closed ghost closed 9 years ago

ghost commented 10 years ago

I really think Energy needs to be a critical part of this discussion of this page? How de we get concepts like Energy Literacy into the discussion? Can a tab or thread be added for this?

Great idea, thanks for the suggestion. Are you suggesting adding EERE resources to the Climate.Data.gov site?

ghost commented 10 years ago

Yes and or www.cleannet.org but I am so concerned by so much talk about Climate but not the equal amount for energy literacy ....the two are conjoined and data (deWaters and Powers 2012, 2010, 2002) shows huge energy illiteracy problem in the US. so it is all good and dandy to talk about Climate data but the conversation for mitigation needs to include renewable energy and energy understanding or energy literacy. I work at DOE EERE and know that we would love a chance to share information. Let me know how I can help. Joshua.sneideman@ee.doe.gov

A new "theme" for Energy will be added to Climate.Data.gov, currently planned for later this fall. A recent data call was sent throughout DOE to help with the population of that theme.

Could you share a screenshot? Not sure what you mean here.

Climate.Data.gov is being deployed as a series of "themes". The first theme, at the initial launch was "Coastal Flooding." There is a team now working on gathering inputs for other themes, and the Energy theme will be deployed later this fall.

For example, the main Climate data site is at https://www.data.gov/climate/, while the coastal flooding theme is at https://www.data.gov/coastalflooding/. This request is accepted and we plan to implement it later this fall as we collect the data and activities around the energy issues related to climate.

This is great news. Is there something the folks at DOE can do to support this?

Closing this issue for now. Will reopen if Climate Topic seeks additional themes.
