If there is no accountability it's an invitation for more of the same. Even WITH accountability -- look at Bolsanaro.

Sadly, climate literacy is low, but I love the comparison; the political climate will remain hot enough to melt lead.

If you want to see just how much climate change amplified the extreme summer of 2026 in Europe, this is a good place to start. …a summer that pushed heat, drought, wildfires and other extremes into truly remarkable territory, as climate science has predicted. climate.copernicus.eu/sites/defaul...

"Nobody can sue at all?" Justice Neil Gorsuch, one of the Supreme Court's conservatives, asked that on Monday in Suncor v. Boulder. He put it to the US government's lawyer, who argued in support of the oil companies which are trying to escape responsibility. Her answer: "I think that's correct." 🧵

There were about 16,000 heat-related deaths in Germany last summer, about double the mortality during the first Covid wave in early 2020. Extreme heat needs to be treated as an ongoing public health emergency.
