Had a great, in-depth conversation with @tgspodcast.bsky.social about climate misinformation (with an interesting digression at the end into my latest climate communication obsession: climate fiction).

A new paper led by @bbastien.bsky.social estimates that accounting for climate pollution's impact on the oceans via the one-two punch of warming & acidification nearly doubles the social cost of carbon (which the Trump EPA thinks is $0). My new @climateconnections.bsky.social article & 🧵 (1/8):

The Weather & Climate Livestream published a video called "We ❤️ NCAR - Protect It Now!" yesterday and it deserves a lot more views than it currently has!

Wollt ihr euch nicht von Desinformation zum Klimawandel für dumm verkaufen lassen? Dann ist dieser Vortrag das richtige! Er zeigt den Stand der Wissenschaft, aber auch die häufigsten Tricks der Klimatäuscher. Holt euch einen Tee und schaut gerne mal rein!

"A federal judge on Friday ruled the Energy Department violated the law when Secretary Chris Wright handpicked five researchers who reject the scientific consensus on climate change to work in secret on a sweeping government report on global warming."

Die #Klimakrise in der öffentlichen Debatte: Wir kennen die Fakten & Lösungen, jetzt braucht es entschlossenes Handeln, so PIK-Forscher @rahmstorf.bsky.social in einem Vortrag. Er spricht über #Extremwetter, die "Hockeyschläger-Kurve", Klimawandelleugner & mehr.👇

Composite image showing some of the activities happening at Skeptical Science during 2025: new languages for the Cranky Uncle game, visiting the EGU conference, publications by team members, weekly research posts, the Cranky Uncle vaccine game, more than 50 published fact briefs, 33 highlighted rebuttals to renewable energy myths and a sneak-peek at the website relaunch.
Year after year it's rather surprising to see how much there is to put into these annual review articles for our activities at Skeptical Science and 2025 is certainly no exception to this "rule"!

And… TRO granted!
A sweet Christmas present for @imranahmed.bsky.social, @counterhate.com--& for their mission of fighting antisemitism & protecting kids online. Also nice for our all-star legal team.

Superb video by @simonoxfphys.com Simon Clark on how truth on climate change is twisted and dismantled by Trump administration: www.youtube.com/watc.... 1/2

So the US administration considers hate speech and disinformation “American viewpoints“? 🙄
HateAid is an organization that also helps climate scientists to defend themselves against online abuse and threats.
Its founder was awarded the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany 🇩🇪 this year.

Michael Mann and Bob Ward don't mince their words here, and unfortunately they are right about the Trump administration's "Soviet-style campaign to prevent Americans and the rest of the world from knowing the truth about climate change."

Have you also asked an AI chatbot about climate and found the answer to be quite good? Maybe that is because it was you who asked.
Some AI (e.g. Grok) tailors their response to suit your beliefs. It’s called ‘AI sycophancy’ (a new word I just learned.)

@profsanderlinden.bsky.social describes the importance of having a multi-layered defense against misinformation, and why such education should be found in all schools.

@weatherwest.bsky.social Hi Daniel! How about adding a link to AGU's action page to this and the excerpt videos' descriptions as it cannot be shared in a comment on the video?

In case you missed it live, a full recording of my rapid-response livestream regarding news surrounding the proposed imminent and sudden dismantling of the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) is now available.

Worth a try?
AGU has a Congressional email and call script up re NCAR:
agu.quorum.us/campaign/151...
The Trump regime wants to dismantle a world leading climate research center. Why? Because the US has become a petrostate where the government has been captured by fossil fuel interests.
They’re calling climate science “green new scam research”, in full denial of reality. 🤯
The team behind Climate.us aims to provide the same kind of reliable, fresh content that used to be available via Climate.gov. We hope you’ll support us. #ClimateForUs

As we approach the end of the year, I look at the state of EV sales for @climateconnections.bsky.social. They're a “highly recommended” climate solution by @projectdrawdown.bsky.social. Sales and policies in the USA are stagnating, but they're surging across much of the rest of the world. 🧵 [1/8]

If someone tells you the CO2 is coming out of the sea, they try to fool you. We know exactly where it comes from and where it goes. We emit CO2, about half of that stays in the atmosphere, and a quarter each is taken up by oceans and forests.
Measured facts!

Wieder eine faszinierende und lehrreiche Gelegenheit für mich, an einer deutschen Handbuchübersetzung mitzuwirken und weitere Übersetzungen zu koordinieren.

In light of the assault on American science by its own government that launched in January this year, we published the Anti-Autocracy Handbook in June to provide some guidance to scholars about how to respond to an emerging autocracy. The handbook is available at: sks.to/autocracy. 1/n
