I've been teaching environmental science for a thousand years and I'm growing increasingly annoyed that people won't understand that they need the world, not the other way 'round.

I see that we're moving past the "it's too late to do anything now" portion of the program to the "get what you can" portion!

Meanwhile, back on Earth, climate change is apparently still a thing that's happening.

But, it's not unbelievable. Don't forget that Senator Turtle refused to seat a Justice for what, a year?! They don't have to worry about consequences anymore because his constituents will never hear about it because it won't run on Fox.

Perhaps they can't say, but I really wonder what my conservative military friends think about this?

NC has been Republican gerrymandered for decades... So it's the argument that the same people who just legalized hangings are soft on crime?

I'm looking forward to finding out the scientific reason for the dawn chorus, but I'm secretly hoping that it's "because it's fun."

Congress should be like "Fine. The notices will be published in subbasement G5 in the secure cabinet for everyone with access to view. If you can't view it or don't know to look for it, that's on you."

I know that people have a lot on their plates right now, but while we work to create a more equitable and kind world, don't forget to make a more sustainable one as well! apnews.com/article/clim...

Scientists warn that greenhouse gas accumulation is accelerating and more extreme weather will come
A team of 60 international scientists report that by early 2028 society will have emitted enough greenhouse gases that the Earth will be pretty much locked into hitting the internationally agreed upon...

If it's been disproven, then continuing to call it a theory is misleading at best. Do better, NPR.

Watch what they do, NOT what they say! I don't believe for a minute that they are actually at odds. It's all theatre. They are both cunning enough to realize that they need each other.

Except that they don't actually think that they are going to die. They believe that as superior creatures they aren't bound by the same rules as us poors. There is no slave standing behind them whispering "memento mori" as the world kisses their feet.

For the first time perhaps ever, I think that societal collapse might actually precede ecological collapse. We always knew both would happen if we didn't change, but I thought the order would be reversed.

I'll take that deal. I have a family of 5 and two of us are teachers and the oldest has an advanced degree in international relations. We will gladly swap out for you. We're even used to living in a red area so we can swing votes!

This is in the budget bill the House GOP passed. They also voted to cut Medicare by a significant amount. To my neighbors who out-voted me by a large margin, have the day you voted for!

Don't hold your breath. Only R senators are willing to grind everything to a halt. The Dems are still fixated on playing nice.

It's incredible to me that simply trying to appreciate the facts as we currently understand them isn't awe -inspiring and humbling enough for people... They need to invent myths on top of it.

The problem is that they didn't attack right. They were supposed to try and grab our wrists!

I don't know that it would change anything, but we need these people to encounter more "disappointed teacher" energy in public.

He doesn't care. Exercising power is the whole point. He doesn't care if anyone gets hurt, if it's a good idea or a bad one. He does it because he can and because all of it is the exercise of power.
