The latest announcement appears to apply to those working for the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy and adds to a list that was started some time ago. The list of “words to avoid” now includes the following:

  • clean or dirty energy
  • carbon/CO2 footprint
  • climate change
  • decarbonization
  • emissions
  • energy transition
  • green
  • sustainability/sustainable
  • tax breaks/tax credits/subsidies
