If you don't drill for oil or gas this year, it will still be around next year. If you destroy an irreplaceable treasure this year, it won't be around anymore or ever again. This asymmetry suggests erring on the side of protection of irreplaceable assets. www.npca.org/articles/114...

Democrats have stopped talking about climate. Strategists say that's smart—but they're wrong. Making climate a top priority wins votes, and barely 1 in 10 voters will vote against climate action. Read all about it in my newsletter, "Notes from the Electric Era." electricnotes.news/p/yes-democr...

FYI if you're not getting NYC alerts this might be coming our way today so pack an N95 if you have to go out, and try to get your stuff done early.

So someone putatively *on the left* tried to throw some really acrid contempt on me & my book because I said that governments were “colluding” w fossil fuel companies. (More on this in the Fall.) Well. Turns out, this is what the Trump regime is LITERALLY doing. Read this bombshell reporting 👇 🧵

23 zettajoules is the latest measure of excess heat into oceans caused by fossil fuel: 23,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 joules Entire human energy production = 1/2 a zettajoule.

🚨reporters working on stories about the NAS extreme event attribution report 🚨 DO NOT FRAME ANY STORY AS "CAN WE BELIEVE EXTREME EVENT ATTRIBUTION RESEARCH?" THE ACTUAL STORY IS: FOSSIL-FUEL INTERESTS ARE WETTING THEIR PANTS ABOUT THIS AND WILL DO ANYTHING TO TRY TO STOP IT.

this happened last summer in LA too. i remember thinking, how fearful does one have to be for one's life and liberty that it's a rational choice to run straight onto an LA freeway

Zeno ain't got nothing on this. How do you solve the climate crisis? Slice emissions into parts small enough that each one "won't materially influence" anything. Jackdaw is 0.02%, so it doesn't count. Run that logic on every source and the whole crisis politely disappears.

The best story ICE could make up, after 12 hours, is that ICE agents shot someone in the head because they believed the person they shot, who was not accused of any crime, was a different person also not accused of any crime, and so "public safety" required killing them on the spot.

The EPA on Monday proposed to approve Alabama’s application to take over issuing certain coal waste permits. It's a big reversal for EPA, which rejected the state's prior application in 2024 for not being protective enough of people or waterways. Gift link: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

seeing a lot of quotes from sen angus king about info he's been able to get about this fatal shooting. you'll remember tho that maine actually has two senators and we don't seem to have heard much from that other one.

we are watching our treasures burn down and still having to convince people that now is the time to take climate action

" #Climate change was mentioned in 40 of the 167 articles, 24% of the total and fossil fuels were mentioned as driving this warming in 5%."

A small but important part of Lindsey Graham's legacy we shouldn't lose sight of today: In 2010, he walked away from cap-and-trade climate legislation, essentially killing bipartisan action on the issue after prolonged, ultimately bad faith negotiations.

A landmark rule curbing industrial heat emissions in Southern California just survived a court challenge.

Hawaii is thinking about building an LNG import terminal. A study by the state claiming massive consumer benefits was shown to contain basic errors, to the point of fraud, honestly, but that hasn't slowed the push at all. But what really bugs me ...

Scientists are getting better at pinpointing the role of climate change in extreme weather events, opening governments and companies to financial liability. So there's growing pressure from fossil-fuel industry and Republicans to cast doubt on attribution science.🎁🔗 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

I'm finally digging into the cross tabs underlying the @searchlightinst.bsky.social memo telling Dems not to talk about climate change. It surprised me, but may not surprise you, that the memo lies about what US swing voters actually said in the polling. Let's have a look, shall we? 🧵
