As I say here, there is no scientific justification to revoke the engagement finding. In fact, over the last 15+ yrs, the evidence of how climate change affects our health has only grown. Higher risk of allergies, dementia, fertility, heart disease, and death: thatâs whatâs on the line.

There is No Scientific Justification to Revoke the Endangerment Finding
The U.S. EPA's decision to repeal the Endangerment Finding will limit the government's ability to regulate emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act.

As US elites bury their heads in the sand, China continues to act on climate change, both domestically and by turning much of its economy into an engine for clean energy exports. Hard to overstate the implications for climate and geopolitics over the coming decades.

Unbelievable. Matt Yglesias wrote a condescending article calling the masses too "unsophisticated" to understand elites, so they unfairly accuse them of "corruption." After insulting people for thinking politicians are motivated by greed, he announces a gambling sponsorship.

This is incredible. Like the previous few years, near all of the electricity capacity added to the grid was clean energy. The Inflation Reduction Act helped this - it made solar & wind cheaper but it also for the first time had a standalone incentive for grid storage. Look at the growth in storage!

The problem is, the hype of AI is always so clearly manufactured. Itâs sold as essential but mysteriously so â rarely is it portrayed as making life better; itâs sold as doing things WE want to keep doing. We want it to inventory our fridge and detect cancer, not make music and replace us at work.

Excellent, thought provoking essay folks in the environmental movement should read & consider. Too much of our movement is wrapped around the axle of elite-engineered R-D "bipartisan" political thought that is brittle, ineffective, & perhaps even dead--even as it persists like a lumbering zombie.

As Trumpists moved the Overton window far to the right, and the Democratic party shifted rightward to absorb moderate Repubs, the right flank of the Dem party stopped being "centrist." It's now socially liberal and fiscally conservative with deregulation as a central goal. "Libertarian," basically.
