Donald Trump's so-called "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" took a sledgehammer to U.S. climate policy, including tax credits for clean cars and appliances. These incentives were helping people cut pollution, lower their energy bills, and make their homes more comfortable. Trump's bill eliminates the credits by the end of this year. 

Wait, don't change the channel—because these incentives haven't expired yet! So for the next few months, there is a federally-funded BLOWOUT SALE on clean tech. Shop until your energy bills drop!

In this episode of A Matter of Degrees, we break down which credits are expiring, what they can do for you, and how to take advantage of them before they're gone. We also dive into how the incentives were cutting pollution, improving people's lives, and transforming our economy. Finally, we talk about what's next for household electrification and how we can continue to make progress under the current administration. 

To help tell these stories, we bring on Ingrid Malmgren, the Senior Policy Director at Plug In America. Visit pluginamerica.org to learn more about electric vehicles and how to get one before federal incentives expire at the end of September. We're also joined by Sarah Gracia, a Senior Go Solar Help Desk Associate at Solar United Neighbors. Visit solarunitedneighbors.org/help-desk to find resources to help you get solar panels on your home and save on your energy bills. Lastly, we hear from Saul Griffith, engineer, inventor, and clean energy entrepreneur. Saul Griffith's new book "Plug In! The Electrification Handbook" walks you through how to electrify your home, save money, and cut climate pollution.
