Regardless of where we live or how we vote, extreme weather puts us all at risk: and we know, without a shadow of a doubt, climate change is making it worse. To build resilience, we need more data, more expertise, more preparation, more communication to keep people safe—NOT LESS! More from me:

After this weekend’s deadly Texas floods, many are asking: what made this storm so extreme — and what role did climate change play? Join climate & weather experts as we unpack the science and answer your questions. 📅Tuesday, July 8 | 11am ET Register 🔗 climatecentral-org.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

The Senate passed its version of the budget reconciliation bill today. While this version of the text does remove the tax on future wind and solar projects, it still features harmful weakening of clean energy tax credits. Now, the bill moves to the House. Tell your Rep to vote no!

This @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social video is absolutely INCREDIBLE. The numbers he cites, the strategy and results they produced — it’s the future. When have you heard *any* campaign talk about this, ever? (Video split in 2 to fit in Bluesky’s limits)

I've had the BBC on an hour and I've already heard the anchors discuss climate change twice — once in a whole explainer connected to the heat wave currently pounding the UK and EU and once in the coverage of the private jets flying to the Sanchez-Bezos wedding. Why can't we have this in the US? 😭

The Senate is scheduled to begin voting on the final budget reconciliation bill tomorrow — including a phaseout of America’s clean energy tax credits. We need to flood the Senate with calls now urging a “NO” vote. Click here to call ➡️ cclusa.org/iradefense

So many beautiful souls lost. Absolutely heartbreaking for India and the UK 🇮🇳🇬🇧

If my husband and I start to get irritated with each other, my six-year-old darts to the light switch, flickers it on and off and announces: “The ghost doesn’t like it when you fight.”

The UK is on course for another very poor harvest thanks to hot, dry conditions. When I ask climate researchers what they fear most, the invariable answer is "multiple harvest failures".

Misinformation: A Telegraph guide 1️⃣Find apparently shocking stat: EV fires "up 77%" 😱 2️⃣Always round up ("nearly double")🤔 3️⃣Downplay context: There are 105% more EVs🙉 4️⃣Sideline wider truth: EV fires 5-6x *less* likely🙊 5️⃣Add quote to cover yourself🙈

Extremely powerful from @natashadevon.bsky.social. In the UK, far more women are joining the Green party than men are joining Reform. Yet the media narrative is that it is Reform that is ascendant.

“The data center industry is booming all over,” and utilities across the country are polluting more to meet data center energy demands, all when scientists agree that cutting fossil fuel emissions is more urgent than ever.

typical corrupt science

My beautiful old St Louis neighborhood and the park where my husband proposed to me got hit hard by a tornado 💔 Scary how so many of us are seeing places we love devastated by weather extremes. Thinking of all impacted in #STL

This video of this amazing speech can be seen on YouTube. Thank you, @matthewthall.bsky.social for the article. I live in Greenwood and I wouldn't have known this occurred if it weren't for reading your piece in @thestate.com. www.youtube.com/live/8AwL0Ov...

Announced yesterday: "Federal scientists will no longer update a list of weather disasters that cause billions of dollars in damage." Ignoring the problem doesn't solve it. Even without a formal list, the impacts of these disasters will still be devastating. www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2025...

Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉 Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace. You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.

It's bad enough to ignore the problem of climate change. It's also bad to disrupt work on a report *required by Congress.* It may still come out, but it's unclear “whether it is going to reflect credible science & be of real use to [...] prepare for climate change.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/28/c...

News media loves covering offshore wind protests. Yesterday I covered a 100-person rally *supporting* offshore wind in NYC. www.canarymedia.com/articles/off... Attendees: electricians, retirees, college grads, charter boat captions, and a whale biologist. The local CBS affiliate was there too👇

Happy Earth Day. This year’s theme is resilience 🪺

After 25 hours: “Let’s get in good trouble…I yield the floor.” 👏👏👏 @booker.senate.gov

Off the chart alarm about climate change from the largely student attendees at the annual Eco Fair at Furman University.

Nice @us.theguardian.com article by @dharna.bsky.social, @aliyaute.bsky.social, and Oliver Milman on the data and efforts to convince House Republicans to defend the IRA, featuring @cclusa.org's lobbying efforts www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Six months after we endured Helene, there’s a catastrophic wildfire 22 miles from my house. It was started by negligent hikers but has been fueled by storm debris and unseasonably dry weather. Climate change is a threat multiplier.

Parts of South Carolina were on high alert over the weekend as dangerous storms rolled in. I wrote an opinion column for the Post and Courier about how life-saving NOAA’s National Weather Service is - and how we must protect it. www.postandcourier.com/greenville/o...

A little bit concerned about my six-year-old’s leprechaun trap 😳 🍀

* Tornado "season" is now all year round * Tornado Alley is shifting to the northeast * While the total number of tornadoes hasn't changed, multi-tornado outbreaks are more common. See below for more info + citations.

We’re in the bad place 💀

I used to be up at the crack of dawn trying to get Glastonbury tickets. Today, it was the early morning laptop battle of summer camp registration at the local science center. Reader, they are harder to get than Glasto tix 😖

We (CCLers) hit the hill today asking Republican offices to preserve clean energy tax credits

This is the problem with the timidity and fake balance of BBC political coverage. A historic betrayal of Ukraine to Russia by Europe's former ally is boiled down to an utterly superficial row about a man's clothes www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Just channeled my frustration about NOAA firings into an op-ed. The National Weather Service kept my family safe when Helene hit. When I moved to US, I was in Tornado Alley & getting alerts on my phone was reassuring. Today, I know my area has an increased fire danger. We’re all a little less safe.

Forecasts from NOAA's National Hurricane Center are more accurate than ever. That's didn't happen by magic: it's the result of 20 yrs of meticulous work that's paid for itself multiple times over. When it comes to research, we eat our own seedcorn for short-term savings at our longer-term peril.

@jonfavs.bsky.social Jon, can you remind me the episode of Offline where you interviewed a former journalist who was running simulations for worst scenarios for US democracy and how to counter them?

Encouraging trends in the new report from @bcsecleanenergy.bsky.social! - Zero emission energy sources (renewable and nuclear) provide 42% of all U.S. power - Renewable energy’s share is 24%, and it’s rising the fastest of all sources of energy across the economy

Write to your members of Congress in defense of NOAA and its vital weather and climate data: cclusa.org/NOAA

The Inflation Reduction Act may have passed via Democrats along partisan lines but red states & Republican districts have largely benefited from local economic development thanks to clean energy incentives. My state, South Carolina, has seen $15,461,800,000 in investment — second only to NC!

Always good to have climate change on the main stage of the @munsecconf.bsky.social. If we don’t fix the climate problem, it will continue making natural resources scarcer, conflicts more likely, and life more expensive.

Making one call doesn’t seem like a big deal but collective advocacy works… “Wilson’s office said that since Monday, February 10, they have received 939 emails and calls opposing the lawsuit, and none in support of it.” www.wistv.com/2025/02/14/a...

Whole bunch of these sent off with heart-shaped soaps for my kids’ school valentines exchange 💚🌞⚡️
