Warm air masses in the atmosphere rise upward, causing cooler air from neighboring areas, sometimes from the arctic, to rush in. This is how atmospheric heat powers storms. In other words, global warming causes colder, more intense winter storms. www.scientificamerican.com/article/exxo...
There destruction of humanity is being led by surprisingly few ̶m̶u̶r̶d̶e̶r̶e̶r̶s̶ public and state-owned companies:
"Just 32 fossil fuel companies were responsible for half the global carbon dioxide emissions driving the climate crisis in 2024, down from 36 a year earlier."
Wrote a thing:
The carnage associated with fossil fuel is why speeding the transition to renewables is good for international stability as well as everything else. Fossil fuel is inseparable from violence, and dependence on it it has created a brutal world order....
hey remember climate change? didn't it have something to do with... oil? I'm sure it can wait.
We condemn the illegal invasion of Venezuela, and we condemn the fossil fuel corruption that led us here. Young people — once again — are the ones that oil billionaires will feed into the meatgrinder of an unjust, imperialist war.

Wells Fargo - you can't hide! WF HQ in San Francisco is shut down - every entrance blockaded by indigenous leaders from Standing Rock, Palestinian organizers, and allies.
WF must stop financing Big Oil, pipelines, genocide in Gaza, & Trump's agenda. #stopbillionaires

Today Amazon released its “Sustainability” report. Predictably, what it leaves out is vastly more important than what it says.
Amazon is building a dirty energy empire, spending literally hundreds of billions on data centers that will rely primarily on new fossil fuel infrastructure.
