More senseless destruction from America’s Arsonist-in-Chief. The cost of this destruction is higher utility bills, more air pollution, and Making America Unhealthier Again.

‘One officer told me that I "had no chance of returning to Minnesota" and that "the best thing for (me] is self-deportation." … She offered me $2600 to self-deport. I refused. I wanted to talk to my attorney. They didn't tell me the judge had already ordered my release and return to Minnesota.’

Senator Susan Collins killed the amendment to protect the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) -- perhaps the world's premier research center for work on #weather, #climate, models, and remote sensing. Remember that.

Go away, Susan Collins. We need NCAR to remain

I look forward to the legally required, transparent peer review process required by the US Global Change Research Act and the Information Quality Act. I always thought they would try to do a NCA with Judith Curry, five old men and a LLM.

Donald Trump is the worst human being in America, but in a way JD Vance is worse. Trump was born a monster and has always been one. Vance DECIDED to become this hateful abomination.

A Climate ‘Shock’ Is Eroding Some Home Values. New Data Shows How Much. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

These six studies show a central estimate of warming from 2.4C to 2.9C, with large climate system uncertainties due to climate sensitivity and carbon cycle feedbacks; its possible that current policy warming could be as high as 4C if we roll 6s on the proverbial climate dice.

"When Bill Gates Yelled At Me About Climate Change" by @dfenton.bsky.social | Yes, Gates' views on climate have long been misguided: www.theframelab.org/when-bill-ga...

This is insane. 🤦‍♂️ Why do tech giants like Elon Musk and Bill Gates keep on saying such dumb things about climate change? They have access to the best possible experts, who could actually teach them something, if they would only ask and listen…

I guess we’re on to the “just give me all your money” stage of this presidency.

Windows of opportunity arise when forecast models provide strikingly accurate guidance on seasonal timescales. Why do they occur when they do? Do they have recognizable precursors? Does predictability depend on the quantity? eos.org/opinions/sci...

The main reason climate policy has failed is that it's opposed by an international coalition of fossil fuel incumbents, authoritarian governments, & oligarch-owned media. That's it. It's the people who killed it who are responsible for killing it! Not the people who supported it! FFS.

You don't fucking say.

California made history in 2025. 🌞⚡ Solar is now the state’s #1 electricity source, overtaking gas (83.1 vs 81.6 TWh). In under a decade, solar surged from marginal to dominant. Big kudos to California—proof the clean energy future is not capacity, it’s generation. More to come! #EnergyTransition

"Discrediting science and scientists is thus an essential first step for authoritarian regimes to then discredit any other types of learning and truth and destabilize their societies."

this is sooooooo f'ing sweet. every time Sec. Chris Wright lies about the DOE Climate Working Group report, reporters cite our response.

Wow. Let’s not blow past this. The administrator of the ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY says that climate change is a hoax/con job.
