The Guardian view on a climate reckoning: an annual address could set a new standard for political accountability | Editorial Editorial: The energy secretary framed environmental action as practical and patriotic, not in terms of wordy ideological pieties. But holding the line won’t be easy

Ed Miliband’s “State of the Climate” speech wasn’t just a warning-it was a challenge to politics-as-usual. By anchoring action in science, history and national interest, the energy secretary laid the ground for a new climate norm: accountability to the future.

A Formula to Keep the Science Flame Burning James Hansen

Jim Hansen has a substack. His first post is good. Jim is one of the greatest climate scientists and his work in the 1980s through 2000s set up the frameworks that we still use today for thinking about forcing and feedbacks.

This is important please share

This finding applies to persistent summer flooding like we've seen in Texas this past week

"Using data from around the world, the [new] study suggests simple exposure to extreme weather events does not affect people's view of climate action—but linking those events to climate change can make a big difference."

If the media aren't doing it, more of us need to!

Extreme summer weather patterns have tripled since the 1950s | Penn Today New research led by Michael E. Mann links a surge in stalled jet stream events to human-driven climate change, with major implications for future heatwaves, wildfires, and floods.

"Extreme summer weather patterns have tripled since the 1950s" | Great piece in @upenn.edu's #PennToday on our recent @pnas.org article, providing critical context for the extreme heat we're seeing right now in North America and Europe: penntoday.upenn.edu/news/extreme...

A dangerous heatwave is bearing down on much of the United States this week. New research by @michaelemann.bsky.social finds "stalled atmospheric events linked to heatwaves, floods, and wildfires—driven by a phenomenon called quasi-resonant amplification (QRA)—have nearly tripled since the 1950s: 🧵

I am thinking a lot about the same thing! There are 1000 cats on Instagram that are more well known than the most famous climate scientists 😄

I think if there was actually some $$ to invest in communication, that would make a big difference. It’s hard to do this as a side gig with no support.

@solarbotanic.bsky.social great idea

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.

With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.
