Climate science denial talking points bingo: 🔴 "Al Gore" 🔴 "Arctic was gonna have no ice anymore 10 years ago" 🔴 Highlighting a single year as irrefutable evidence

New docs obtained via FOIA reveal how the personal attacks to FEMA staff last hurricane season were much worse than previously known, including swatting & doxxing of officials. Story @bloomberg.com, w/ @davey.bsky.social @jasonleopold.bsky.social (gift link): www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Can't set limits on emissions if you don't know how much polluters are emitting... www.nytimes.com/2025/09/12/c...

Big scoop from @eroston.bsky.social and @lorengrush.bsky.social : NASA has barred Chinese citizens with US visas from working on agency programs. That includes university scientists, grad students and contractors

"The Trump administration aims to increase..oil and gas production, a major source of..emissions contributing to more intense disasters.. Meanwhile, the impacts of #ClimateChange are piling up, from intense #heatwaves to massive #wildfires to deadly #floods. Last year was the hottest ever recorded."

The Trump administration is taking a "cluster bomb approach" to rolling back climate science and environmental policy and undertaken rouhgly 400 anti-science actions since January. It could take the US decades to recover what is being lost, and some things may be be permanently gone

"At this time last year, the US was issuing gold-standard climate science and enacting a fitful policy to speed the energy transition. Now, the government is memory-holing some of that science and outright blocking wind and solar power." www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet... by @blkahn.bsky.social 🔌💡

NEW: i took a look at new research from @oilchange.bsky.social which finds that taxpayers are on the hook for an additional $4 billion per year in fossil fuel subsidies thanks to the one big beautiful bill:

“They’re doing away with science. That, to me, is enormously troubling,” said Bush's EPA head Christine Todd Whitman. “We have basically an EPA that’s totally been defanged of its mission,” said Obama's EPA chief Gina McCarthy. www.bloomberg.com/features/202...

At an alarming pace, the Trump administration has fired climate scientists, rolled back regulations, interfered in data collection, and cut planning and emergency response funds. That puts all Americans at risk. Read The Big Take ⬇️

🚨Hot off the press🔥 LIGHTS OUT How Trump's war on climate science is weakening the US A feature about the White House's "cluster-bomb approach" to dismantling the world's most sophisticated scientific apparatus. By @zhirji.bsky.social @blkahn.bsky.social and me 🎁🔗 www.bloomberg.com/features/202...

I know there's a lot of news rn but @eroston.bsky.social, @zhirji.bsky.social and I wrote a full accounting of the Trump administration's war on climate science and clean energy. Putting it all in one place was a lot!

“The projects Trump points to as proof of his reshoring success now risk being paralyzed by US enforcement actions that target the very workforce building them”

🔥 A record summer of blazes in Europe shows how governments and local communities can’t keep up with brutal fire conditions exacerbated by climate change story via @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

Holy shit: Stateline spoke to nearly a dozen firefighters, agency staffers and contractors, who said that top officials assigned to the fire deployed the crews to a remote location under false pretenses so federal agents could check their immigration status. www.hcn.org/articles/fir...

Glaciers in Central Asia have long managed to withstand rising temperatures and changing weather patterns. But now, the outlook is worsening. My latest for @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Filed under this *really* happened: Following a week of strife at the disaster relief agency, Homeland Security secretary Kristi Noem told FEMA employees to "be vocal" about their positive experiences with the Trump administration. @mollytaft.com on the chaos at FEMA:

wake up babe the park rangers are unionizing

In the chaos of reporting on the halting of Revolution Wind in Rhode Island, I totally missed that Trump — on the same day — signaled he will nix federal permits for MarWin, which is approved but not yet built. MarWin was slated to be Maryland’s first #offshorewind farm. They also have great merch

Not the first to make this point, but it really is wild to see the administration declare an energy national emergency while simultaneously blocking so many projects that would provide local, abundant energy

My latest: The Trump administration is not waiting for the next fiscal year -- or Congress -- to cut climate science at NOAA. A new document details the money it won't spend *this* year on climate research.

An anti-offshore wind group has threatened to go to the Trump administration with complaints about a Brown researcher if he doesn't retract climate obstructionism. It mirrors how other groups with claims of antisemitism and DEI have operated. New from @mchediak.bsky.social and me

NEW: An anti-offshore wind group is targeting a Brown researcher who studies climate obstruction. It's not the first time they've done it, but there's a new twist: They're threatening to go to the Trump administration unless the university retracts the work

this isn't even a WSJ opinion piece!!

Is Smoking Truly Bad for You? We Break Down the Debate

The Trump administration tightened long-standing eligibility requirements for clean energy tax credits, a move that could threaten the viability of hundreds of wind and solar energy projects under development. #energysky www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

"In the end, what’s most remarkable about the campaign against Oregon’s wildfire map isn’t that misinformation found an audience. It’s that it worked"

This one weird trick can help reduce the risk of catastrophic wildfires and smoke

Chris Wright to Ben Shapiro: The IPCC doesn't address climate change's influence on extreme weather The IPCC: "Human-caused climate change is already affecting many weather and climate extremes in every region across the globe"

Scoop: The U.S. billion-dollar disaster database is set to return this fall over at @climatecentral.org. They've hired the former NOAA scientist who ran the project for 10+ years www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Prior to 2020's Hurricane Paulette, I never saw a satellite image of an Atlantic named storm accompanied by wildfire smoke. Now, we see one most years. Last year, it was Ernesto. 2025's offering: Tropical Storm Dexter.

Trump killed the government's billion-dollar disaster database. Now, it's coming back at @climatecentral.org and being led by the former NOAA scientists who ran it. Nice scoop from @laurenthal.bsky.social

Neil Jacobs - the weather scientist who was in charge at NOAA during "Sharpiegate" - is poised to come back. “I’m hopeful that he’s learned how to fight within the political system," one former NOAA chief said, "because he is going to have to fight." / 1 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

The fact that this coal is glistening is not getting enough attention ✨😜✨

just checking in on what the Energy Department is up to on twitter...

Lee Zeldin said repealing the endangerment finding would “end $1 trillion or more in hidden taxes on American businesses and families.” But the government's own research shows climate-fueled extreme weather is *already* causing $150 billion annually in losses for the US

Multiple scientists cited in the DOE report downplaying the severity of climate change said their work was misrepresented. @mollytaft.com has the scoop on just how exactly data from nine of them was cherrypicked and twisted

This Energy Department report is cited nearly two dozen times in the EPA's rollback of the endangerment finding and some of the claims are, well, let's look at a few of them

SCOOP from me: Trump's AI action plan released last week makes a specific set of recommendations around loosening Clean Water Act permits for data centers — recommendations mirrored in letters sent to the administration by Big Tech lobbyists earlier this year:

Climate nonprofits were set to expand programs to help electrify affordable housing, improve climate resilience in low-income communities and leverage private finance for solar projects. Now, they're laying off staff and playing defense amid Trump's huge budget cuts

. @npr.org is one of the only US national news organizations that still has a reporter inside Gaza, Anas Baba, and he keeps reporting even though he himself is starving. This piece is unbelievably powerful. www.npr.org/2025/07/05/n...

An AI slop factory apparently tried to rewrite our article about AI not replacing workers en masse, but hit the paywall... so just summarised the paywall. If this is the robot that takes my job I'll be v embarrassed

The numbers showing the environmental disaster in Gaza are honestly hard to comprehend: -55 million tons of rubble -84,000 cubic meters of sewage flowing to Mediterranean *every day* -At least 350 large waste sites visible from space. The majority are near tents and 15% are by water/sanitation sites

Why is the EPA administrator saying CO2 is "essential for life?" @eroston.bsky.social and I put together a glossary of the administration's climate language and the strategies behind the words
