ICEBlock lawsuit: Trump admin bragged about demanding App Store removal ICEBlock creator sues to protect apps that are crowd-sourcing ICE sightings.

The legal complaint called out Apple for its alleged capitulation to the Trump administration, which appeared to be “the first time in Apple’s history" that the company removed a US-based app in response to the US government’s demands.

"Dismissive" is a very good description.

Cal Fire approach to SoCal's wildfire crisis could make things worse, court says A statewide Cal Fire program risks making fires worse by removing native chaparral and allowing the spread of more flammable grasses, a court ruled.

Preening politicians made things worse in education by overtesting students and they're doing the same with firebreaks and other failed strategies: www.latimes.com/environment/...

Federal Judges, Warning of ‘Judicial Crisis,’ Fault Supreme Court’s Emergency Orders

It's official:

-2025 is now a more threatening year for the survival of the republic than 1968.

-John Roberts will now go down in history as a worse chief justice than Roger "Dred Scott" Taney.

Climate change has increased the odds of extreme regional forest fire years globally Nature Communications - The authors show that extreme fire years in global forests align with rare fire weather extremes. Climate change has made such extremes 88-152% more probable. These findings...

Happy to share our new paper: we show that human-caused climate change is raising the odds of extreme climate-driven fire years across forested regions of the globe

As a fire scientist, my first reaction to these maps is that these places are gonna burn.

Any time you open up public lands to private or communal ownership that does not center fire stewardship of the land, ignitions and fire events increase dramatically.

It's like evil Gifford Pinchot drew a map. That's a lot of national forest land in the Lower 48 and a massive amount of BLM land in Alaska. Some of the best public lands we have will be available for purchase, but not by people like you or me.

Thanks to @wilderness.org for pulling this together.
