It’s been 67 years since fossil fuel executives were first warned their products could contribute to climate change and harm communities. Since then we’ve seen companies not only fail to act, but outright obfuscation, distraction, and deceit to distort that undeniable truth.

Trump officially rolled back fuel efficiency standards today. The new target for 2031 is about 34.5 miles per gallon, down from 50.4. That means more gas burned, more pollution, and more money out of drivers’ pockets. So much for making things affordable.

Congenital measles has rarely been seen in the U.S. That’s changing as vaccination declines and more pregnant women become infected.
