The best time to have invested in renewables, walkable cities and transit to avoid the oil crisis shock was twenty years ago. The second best time is today.

There is a particular absurdity to Donald Trump—a man who avoided Vietnam due to “bone spurs”—dancing on the grave of Robert Mueller, a decorated combat veteran, Jonathan Lemire argues. theatln.tc/7eJihNK2

#CurryFiles released! By court order (via @ucs.org & @envdefensefund.bsky.social) 100K+ pages of document have been released, detailing effort by Judith Curry/John Christy/Steven Koonin/Ross McKitrick /Roy Spencer to discredit scientific case for federal climate action: www.edf.org/media/record...

Dr. Catharine Young: We are now at 1136 new measles cases - in just the first 8 weeks of this year alone. A preventable disease resurging. This is an abject policy failure.

America now has state-compromised media. When 60 Min or CNN is in trouble, we’re all in trouble. Trump has cracked the code in how to hurt the press. MAGA corporations must not control the news. I discuss today with @thewarningses.bsky.social and @normeisen.bsky.social on Substack and YouTube.

For historical context, the Obama admin in 2016 estimated the cost of a ton of carbon pollution to society at ~$50/ton (though closer to $130/ton today, in 2025 dollars, using a 2% discount rate). The Biden EPA estimated it in 2023 at ~$210 today. The Trump admin twice set it to nearly zero (2/8)

Independent journalism is under siege…and Georgia Fort is in Trump’s crosshairs

Can we just go ahead and call this era “The Age of the Simpleton."

I’m relieved to hear that ICE and CBP will be pulled from Minnesota. Minnesotans will never forget the injustice they have experienced. Through strategic resistance, they successfully got this rogue army off their streets. We all need to remember that lesson. Onwards with courage.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

And like clockwork, just days after climate denier Bjorn Lomborg was exposed in the Epstein Files, Jeff Bezos's Washington Post publishes Lomborg op-ed downplaying the climate threat:

A fun case study since there have been 72 million articles on the cold in the east and 4 on the warmth in the west

It’s been 8 days and we still don’t know the names of the men who murdered Alex Pretti. DHS must be abolished. No ICE. No palantir surveillance police state. There’s no “fixing” a sociopathic agency designed to trample on our freedoms.

Okay, the commas had me confused for a minute.

That’s right, Katie. The Founding Fathers were WOKE on levels you’ll never comprehend.

Protester: "It just feels like they're murdering the most peaceful people we have, the people who are out on the street, young, and trying to protect other people"

Many people are asking, "What's Happened to Global Temperatures?" so here's the answer in image form.

I’m fairly certain that every location on the planet that is 10,000 miles from NYC is in the middle of the southern ocean.

what a legend lmao

I am calling for a complete and total boycott of the Mercator projection in all news stories about Greenland until every member of the American public has seen this

The First Amendment protects the public’s right to: 1. Film ICE in public 2. Photograph ICE in public 3. Observe what ICE does in public ICE and DHS officials cannot lay a finger on any American who is peacefully exercising First Amendment rights.

Isn’t this what an abusive spouse screams when he thinks he's apologizing.

I invite all Americans to join Minnesota in a day of unity tomorrow.

Yeah, this dum dum is talking about chicken pox. Anyway, it's very cool and awesome that he has so much cultural and political influence.

Remember the 1920s when nobody was left-handed

The next National Climate Assessment will be written by five climate deniers and an AI in a trench coat.

Gotta love the juxtaposition.

Happy Hanukkah to our friends who celebrate. Rachel Posner, a rabbi’s wife in Kiel, Germany, took this photograph in 1931 -- a potent reminder that fascism must be fought in every generation, even if it's wrapped in an American flag and a red hat.

In a new article over at Carbon Brief, I explore why the past three years – 2023, 2024, and 2025 – have been exceptionally warm. The main culprits turn out to be a combination of El Nino and internal variability, declining aerosols, and a strong solar cycle: www.carbonbrief.org/...

That interesting life moment when you find books under the bed while cleaning out your son’s bedroom… and it’s not what you expected.

The president of the American Soybean Association, who operates a farm in Magnolia, says Trump's $12 billion bailout will help farmers, but not make up for all of the harms caused by trade wars and increased costs.

I’m somewhat perplexed by this particular branding in 2025, especially at REI.

Imagine if you could power a server farm that’s 100 to 1000 larger than the current largest server farm running a neural net structure using about a gallon of water and 0.003 kw/h of energy per day. That’s a single human brain. What am I missing in contextualizing this with AI?

Second lowest November global sea ice extent on record.

It’s this simple. 👇

“I want their morale as low as possible because a team with low morale is ineffective.” Meet the veteran who chases ICE on a scooter

Those seeking pardons through official channels have watched while Trump grants pardons to people who never entered the system at all. “If you’re just an average citizen, you can’t even get in the line,” one lawyer said. “I told my guy he’d probably be better off if he broke into the Capitol.”

There has been a lot of recent interest in mitigating "super pollutants", short-lived climate pollutants like methane and refrigerants. We should cut emissions, but using them as carbon offsets risks breaking the math of net zero: www.theclimatebrink....

If you don’t follow Michael de Adder, you don’t know what you're missing.

Just for the record, in 2020: - Wray was the FBI director Trump handpicked to replace Comey - Jack Smith was in the Hague prosecuting Kosovo war crimes - Garland was an appeals court judge - Monaco was in private practice in LA There was no Biden administration yet, crooked or otherwise. He crazy.
