Can the media please focus on why Australia approves fossil fuel extraction projects to give it away to foreign companies for free so they can add CO2 to the atmosphere to cause weather disasters that kill & displace Australians…?
Seems like an important topic

Somewhat lost in the news about the Republican Big Ugly Bill is that it also raises your energy bills—gutting clean energy incentives that cut costs for families and businesses. While billionaires get tax breaks, you’ll pay more to keep the lights on.
Asheville washed away.
Los Angeles burns to the ground.
Missouri torn up by tornadoes.
The Orange terrorist transfers FEMA responsibility to states while taking away California’s right to address gas car climate pollution.
If you're not paying attention, do.

The devastating climate destruction is spreading everywhere across the country.
Here's a decent primer on why it's happening:

A video still of the NYT reporter Karen Weiss, with the caption: Why A.I. Companies Are Turning Into Energy Companies Tech companies have been building data centers around the country, Karen Weise, Laura Bult, James Surdam and Ramon Dompor
An entire @nytimes.com video on the need for power at AI data centers (& on tech companies now procuring energy) which never even mentions the words #ClimateChange, let alone notes that we need to phase out fossil fuels now to halt heating at a relatively safe level.
I'm so tired.
From Ron Garan, astronaut/author, FLOATING IN DARKNESS:
'It's obvious from the vantage point of space that we are living a lie.
'We need to move from thinking: "economy, society, planet" to "planet, society, economy."'
How can YOU help change that thinking?

A CBS News graphic explaining the difference between a tornado watch versus a warning.
If you may be in harms' way, make sure the notifications on your phone are enabled. Check for tornado watches and warnings regularly, and have a plan for what you'll do and where you'll go. I use the @myradar.bsky.social app myself.
An infographic prepared by NOAA showing that large tornado outbreaks are becoming more common, but the number of tornadoes isn't changing.
The second part of the infographic explaining why climate attribution science is so challenging to apply to tornadoes: relatively small and very-short lived events compared to, say, a wildfire, hurricane, or heatwave.
* Tornado "season" is now all year round
* Tornado Alley is shifting to the northeast
* While the total number of tornadoes hasn't changed, multi-tornado outbreaks are more common.

Hey Dads (maybe "Hay"?),
Hope you're safe out there!
The gutting of NOAA has made the climate disasters even more deadly.
I'll post where to follow for a warning system next.

Hey Dads,
If you're wondering if there's any good news about climate, here you go:

Also, check out Nebula.TV for more.
The latest issue of Astronomy magazine came down to earth with two excellent articles on climate change. One had this familiar chart updated with the latest data.
Dads, if you care about your kids, fight like their future depends on it.
Because it does.
Ask not for whom the climate bell tolls, it tolls for thee.

Hey Dads,
This video from Paul Hawken says it all.
We should spend our time, resources, energy, money, creativity, honor, protection, preparedness, knowledge, skills, talents, abilities, and social capital fighting for THIS PLANET WHERE WE LIVE.

Fires blow fracked methane (aka, #naturalgas) pipes and get worse. That is enough reason to go all-electric.
P.S. #GreenHydrogen is a mask for keeping gas in the system.

How the fire affected NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory: About 210 employees lost their homes. Others were displaced by damage to their neighborhoods. Employees kept the institution running, some putting worst-case emergency training to use. @corinnepurtill.bsky.social www.latimes.com/california/s...

The damage, both financial, physical, and emotional, to our homes, neighborhoods, and towns is mountings. We #ClimateDads must educate ourselves and take action to prevent the worse case scenario that we are currently headed towards.

Shockingly few people are talking about the toxic air and water in LA.
It’s eerily reminiscent of early days of the pandemic when we were assured we didn’t have to mask
Listen to air quality experts. The same folk educating about IAQ & COVID are providing life saving info now.
And wear a mask.
A quote from the paper stating that their results extend my advice about the importance of talking about climate change
Researchers found 15 people in Kansas City who had changed their mind about climate change, and asked them why. Fascinating!
