Larry Sabato: New NBC Poll: Trump’s job approval at 2nd term low. 63% Disapprove, 37% Approve. 50% STRONGLY Disapprove. So much winning.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

If it strengthens into a “Super El Niño,” ocean temperatures in the Pacific could rise more than 3.6°F (2°C) above average, powerful enough to shift global weather patterns.

The connection starts thousands of miles away.

China eyes near-total electrification of freight trucks to cut emissions China’s push to electrify heavy trucks could slash road oil demand by half, driven by cost, scale, and energy security.

I keep getting told goods move by diesel truck

Not China which is shifting to 100% electric trucking

Do you want to see the "big picture" on climate change?

Here it is.

Emissions are on the left, and include CO2, CH4, N2O, and f-gases. Natural CO2 sinks (from healthy forests & oceans) are on the right. And carbon removal, what little there is, is on the right, too. All expressed as GWP100.

I'm not sure which planet he's talking about but it's not Earth.

Threatening the Pope…he’s crazy and needs to be impeached.

Wait till he finds out how expensive disasters become.

Oil just dropped 11% on news the Strait of Hormuz is “open.”

But “open” doesn’t mean normal.

Right now, 800+ tankers are stuck in the Gulf. The strait is effectively a 3-lane highway merging into 1. ~400 loaded ships trying to exit. ~100 empty ships willing to enter.

3 years until normal.

Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.

This Kern County crew is harvesting broccolini. Unlike broccoli, which is harvested once, workers need to keep on coming back to the same field to select the individual, tender 6–8 inch stems before they flower. It's a challenging crop as it requires precise timing. #WeFeedYou

Remember Martha.

What a refreshing approach to governing! Addressing the issues that matter to voters—no matter how small or seemingly mundane. Imagine if our federal government did the same to make our lives better and happier.

It’s shameful that our policies in the US neglect human dignity and quality of life.

A vital system of Atlantic Ocean currents is weakening and closer to collapse than thought, new studies find | CNN New research provides alarming evidence this ocean circulation is slowing and could be heading toward a shutdown, which would have catastrophic impacts on the planet’s weather and climate.

New study: most climate models underestimate the decline of the Atlantic overturning circulation #AMOC. The AMOC is on course to slow by more than 50% by the end of the century. 🌊
Very likely the AMOC will then be past the tipping point for full shutdown. 😨

He IS truly the dumbest American…and somehow schemed his way into power.

The greatest con job of all time.

It’s all so embarrassing to be an American.

Reporter: Why did you attack Pope Leo?

Trump: I don’t think he’s doing a very good job. He likes crime I guess. We don’t like a pope who says it’s ok to have a nuclear weapon. We don’t want a pope that says crime is ok. I am not a fan of Pope Leo.

Dusted in gold and shaped like diamonds, Pacific cownose rays are a true treasure to behold. Resembling birds in flight, these migratory species travel in fevers across the eastern Pacific Ocean, from northern Mexico to northern Peru, including the Galápagos Islands.
