With a week to go in December's data, the planet is at about 1.40°C above the 1850-1900 IPCC pre-industrial baseline for December, and about 1.47°C above the baseline for all of 2025. La Nina "cooling" is in full effect right now.

1. This federal-Alberta pipeline MOU is even worse than I expected. Even before we get to the pipeline: - exempts AB from net zero electricity reg (AB produces 44% of all electricity-related GHGs in Canada). - delays methane reg by 5 years (75% redn by 2035 rather than 2030. (cont'd)

While Trump’s goons are desperately trying to criminalize protests, there are ways to protest that don’t involve leaving your house. Trump can’t make you shop. Boycott Black Friday thru Cyber Monday. November 28th-December 2 Don’t buy a damn thing besides necessities. Hurt the billionaires.

There's good reason why the oil and gas industry lobbies so hard for carbon capture - because it's the one 'climate solution' that wouldn't necessarily require shutting down the oil and gas industry But it doesn't work. They need to be shut down
