In fact, the oil and gas companies paid some of the very same spokespeople, after they lost their jobs with the tobacco industry. Want to know more? Watch or read Merchants of Doubt!

Have we just been examining the tip of the iceberg when it comes to AI's carbon emissions? This new study says YES. Thanks to @emorwee.bsky.social and @grist.org for reporting on this.

My friend Jim Stump recently spent five days camping above the Arctic Circle with a group of faith leaders in the very place Big Oil keeps trying to drill ... and what's happening there right now is more hopeful than you'd think.

Scan your local news today. How many stories are about something climate change is making worse...without saying so? I counted 8 of those in my feed today, vs just 1 that named climate change directly. Why does this matter? Research shows that making this connection changes how people see it.
Nine screenshots of my google news page today, each describing issues that are directly impacted by climate change, from more dangerous wildfire to changing flood policies.

“They discovered pro-tradwife men expressed a hostile form of sexism, calling women who submitted to men lazy and parasitic.” I bet these men want a submissive wife while they do all the domestic duties, while they contribute to the household income…. But, you can’t have it both ways. 😩

What will happen to the 82 USFS experimental forests around the country? Many sites have decades-long experiments that are tracking how forests are changed by timber harvesting practices and climate change. As I say here, “you can't just pick up an experimental forest site and move it to SLC.”
