Imagine telling the entire Earth you’re blocking my sun

I am super fortunate to work at a place that is letting me take a personal leave for three months. But that doesn't mean the work stops. We are hiring a climate reporter to fill in while i'm out! Apps close April 15th!

The video of this meeting is so weird. They're clearly in a tiny corner of a big hall or something. It also shouldn't be so easy to condemn living beings to destruction. www.youtube.com/live/iC3xyp4...

Does anyone have updates on Colombia's draft law to “recognize the existence of forced internal displacement due to causes associated with climate change and environmental degradation"? Did it ever pass or has it stalled? english.elpais.com/internationa...

Waiving the Jones Act will only offer small savings on gas prices – Dan and Marc cite research that estimates the savings would be $0.63 per barrel – which translates to less than 2 cents per gallon. econofact.org/the-jones-ac...

You need to listen to this good-as-hell new podcast from two of the smartest people in climateworld.

The only good news this year. Must listen

When I joined the climate comms world exactly a decade ago, a major campaign was to get journalists to stop the "both-sides" journalism and stop platforming climate deniers. They mostly don't do that anymore. To me, this is a version of that.

It was very besides the point of the interview but @chrislhayes.bsky.social made me realize why I hate talking on the cellphone so much. Wonder if it's true for Zoom too

At an energy conference on Monday, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum said, "The era of taxpayers subsidizing unreliable, unaffordable and unsecure energy is officially over.” Hours later, one of America’s largest oil refineries exploded.

Now with updates from ASEAN econ ministers, Bulgaria, the Netherlands and Poland...

I'm so ready for a turn away from the hypermasculine press and media dominance. I want the "softness" and intersectionality back

A reminder that there are local people who actually rely on the Strait of Hormuz for food and livelihood. theconfluence.news/p/how-confli...

Internal briefing documents and meeting records...suggest that these vital standards may soon change. The possibility of revision has emerged, following a series of opaque US-EU meetings that could affect European sustainability and energy independence goals. www.euronews.com/my-europe/20...

Independent journalism is great, but it takes a big outlet like the NY Times to support two journalists to spend five years on a story.

Electric vehicles helped to avoid the consumption of 2.3 million barrels of oil per day last year • Iran war-fuelled rise in oil prices is reigniting interest in EVs • Drop in oil consumption could reach 5.3 million barrels/day by 2030, roughly Canada's output www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

We’re terrible stewards of our planet.

💅"Ms. Drummond noticed that Wired’s former editor had departed and reached out to Anna Wintour, Condé Nast’s chief content officer, after guessing her email address."

Climate change +energy crisis "India’s summer starts in April, but in recent years the nation has seen temperatures rising from March. There’s an increased likelihood of more heatwave days across many parts of the country in the three months to May 31..."

There are a tiny handful of top editors and executives in the news business who've truly met this moment. @katie-drummond.bsky.social is one of them. Proud to play a small part on team @wired.com www.nytimes.com/2026/03/17/b...

EXCLUSIVE: Surveillance video obtained by an activist shows Liam Conejo Ramos and his father being taken to a detention center in Texas via a Delta Airlines flight, the morning after ICE allegedly used the boy as bait. gillianbrockell.com/video-proves...

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

Now imagine this graphic with marine life also present. So upsetting

A thread -- which world leaders are calling for a shift to clean energy as a security investment in light of Iran War? First up, French President Macron: "...everything we do to more toward the transition is also about reducing our dependence.." (1/x) #cleanenergyisnationalsecurity

In possibly the least efficient way possible with the most human suffering.

Suzie Wiles needs some help thinking of ideas to lower gas prices. Any suggestions? How about: • Don't bomb Iran. • Restore fuel economy standards. • Offer rebates to people who want an EV but can't yet afford one.

Happening in 30 minutes! Should be a very interesting conversation, esp with @ninalakhani.bsky.social there. (and no, no one is saying that emissions are more important than lives, that's a false dichotomy). us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

There's something especially agonizing that this moment coincides with the complicated tax return filing period.

I also happen to be one of the only reporters on earth to have extensively reported about Ingleside on the Bay, a small town on Corpus Christi Bay that is America's answer to the Strait of Hormuz. Global fossil fuel export supply chains are incredibly fragile and dirty: bsky.app/profile/thex...

JUST ONE YEAR'S OF SOLAR!? In 2025, 82MT of LNG went thru the Strait of Hormuz. That's 1200TWh of gas = about 600TWh of electricity generation if it was used in gas power plants. Meanwhile in 2025, global solar electricity generation rose by about 600TWh ☀️

#LunarEclipse FAQ: Q: Is it safe to look at? A: Absolutely! Unlike a solar eclipse, there's no UNsafe time to look at a lunar eclipse. Q: Do I need a telescope? A: Nope! Best view is with naked eye. Just look up! Q: Does the eclipse portend terror & doom? A: Not at all! The news has that covered.

We're inching towards WW3 and meanwhile my stupid watch refuses to sync with my phone. Both are quite existential issues

A useful piece that underscores the benefit of energy sources that do not have to pass thru the Strait of Hormuz (e.g. sunshine & wind). Renewable energy is an investment in geopolitical resilience.

China’s strategic petroleum reserve is estimated at 1.5bn barrels and they get 4-5m bpd via the strait of Hormuz, so in theory they can last the best part of a year. Of course, price effect hits imports from other sources.

Months after Delhi's pollution topped the charts, my former neighbors are fighting efforts to build a temple where a beautiful park now thrives. indianexpress.com/article/citi...

Paging India too...

The Epstein files document what many women researchers have long experienced but rarely seen laid bare so starkly: exclusion operating behind closed doors, shaping who gets funded, invited, mentored, and taken seriously. How many of these networks, norms, and gatekeepers remain in place?

Deleted a previous post. New 10% tariff is under *Section 122* not 232; so this is temporary for 90 days. Presumably will be followed by expanded tariffs under other sections including sham “investigations” that will be litigated. Not enough lawyers!

This local Wolfdog joined an Olympic ski event and triggered the finish-line camera. This is Nazgul. He snuck into a cross-country skiing sprint this morning and raced the homestretch with some competitors before being escorted home. 14/10 someone get him a medal

Today, despite clear opposition from Georgians, the Georgia Public Service Commission voted 3-2 to allow Georgia Power to move forward with its massive expansion plan to provide power to data centers.
