Now, more than ever, we need to hold our elected officials accountable for their votes.

Ok, I asked. The change in heart was due to both a steady rise in climate disasters that could no longer be ignored *and* the right messenger: insurance companies. "They're so conservative it isn't even funny. And at the core of their business is risk. Are you going to call them a bunch of hippies?"
Graph showing daily global mean sea surface temperatures for 2026. This is also compared to the daily data from the 1981-2010 average and 1991-2020 average. Annotations are also shown to the current year with the other years from 1940 to 2026. There is a seasonal cycle. There is a long-term warming trend. 2023 and 2024 are also indicated, which were the warmest years on record. Data is from ECMWF ERA5 reanalysis and updated through 25 February 2026.
Daily global mean sea surface temperatures are on the rise again, ranking as the 2nd warmest on record for the current date. Some of the largest departures globally are actually off the coast of southern California and Mexico. 🌊

Graph of number of diesel cars vs BEVs from May 2012 until today.
Today is my birthday, and what a present!
There are as of today more BEVs than diesel cars in the Danish car fleet!
And yes, that is only counting pure EVs. Not hybrids of any kind.

Chris Wright saying "I made 5 calls for 5 scientists"
IPCC: thousands of scientists, years of writing and multiple rounds of peer review.
The DOE Climate Working Group report: “I made five calls for five scientists.”
Dear DOE: That’s not how you assemble a climate assessment. That’s how you assemble a panel for cable news.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people local newspaper reporters are rarified elites instead of ink-stained wretches driving their Honda Civic to a crime scene so you know don’t have to rely on Nextdoor and the police press release.
I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is
Losing the Endangerment Finding will cost Californians billions at the pump and the doctor's office and cut lives short with dirtier air. @CASenateDems @AssemblyDems vote "YES” on @robertgarcia4ca’s #AB1777 to save people money and #StopDieselDeath.

Look, the endangerment-finding move was stupid and wrong, but this headline is wildly misleading. EPA regs never meaningfully restrained GHGs and the US government still very much has the power to address climate change. It's called f'ing Congress!
First the Washington Post gutted its climate desk. Now its editorial board is cheerleading for Trump’s biggest and most dangerous climate rollback.

Lost a giant and a great Amerian who championed others all the time. He also was full of wisdom, and once said to me during a meeting at his office in DC: “you can get a lot done in this town if you don’t care who gets the credit.” www.politico.com/news/2026/02...
🚨Our new paper led by Dr. @zialyle.bsky.social looked at how climate change poses risks to US drinking water utilities & if their bonds disclose these risks to investors. Utilities serving 67 million people have high risks, but 36% of their bonds don't mention climate: www.nature.com/articles/s43...
