Maryland Supreme Court weighs future of local climate deception lawsuits | Center for Climate Integrity Two other state supreme courts have already ruled in favor of communities on the issue currently before the Maryland Supreme Court.

The Maryland Supreme Court will now decide if their cases can move forward.

Baltimore, Annapolis, and Anne Arundel County deserve their day in court. 👇

Greta Thunberg On Her Detention: I'm "Not The Story" — It's Israel Violating International Humanitarian Law “I could talk for a very, very long time about our mistreatment and abuses in our imprisonment. Trust me. But that is not the story.”

Thanks to @bberwyn.bsky.social for letting me vent about my experience with censorship of federal climate and climate justice information and the many places it's reappearing. If you like the work featured in the article, support @climate.us!

To all the fed employees potentially getting furloughed tonight, this sucks and I’m sorry even though I know a lot of you want the fight, so a tepid hell-yeah as well

This moment where everything is being broken is a moment about what we build to replace it, too.

Reminder than if the government shuts down, "emergency employees," such as NWS meteorologists, are exempt from furloughs and expected to report to work unpaid. However, the White House is threatening RIFs across agencies and NOAA's shutdown plan has not yet been posted to the OPM website.

‘Wholesale destruction’: Government shutdown or not, critical science programs are at risk The Trump administration has proposed devastating cuts to federal Earth and climate science programs, and a government shutdown could give them an opportunity to begin implementing those cuts.

In the event of a shutdown, the Office of Management and Budget is recommending reductions in force (layoffs) for “all employees” in all “programs, projects, or activities” that are “not consistent with the President’s priorities.”

What does that mean for US Earth and climate science?

A leading Democrat in the Senate just released an important report documenting how NASA has been working to implement the president's proposed budget, not Congressionally approved funds, in slashing missions. Read more ⬇️

"I will not give them what they want. I will not just leave. I’m going to make it as difficult as possible for these fuckheads.”

One might think the only Jewish head of state in North America - and also the most popular Jewish head of state in the world - recognizing a Palestinian embassador and calling on Israel to end its genocide might you know, be news

Human-Caused Warming Tripled the Death Toll of European Heat Waves This Summer, New Report Shows - Inside Climate News Public health researchers struggle to track the accelerating pace of global warming impacts.

Opinion | Barnard President: Now Is the Time for Colleges to Host Difficult Speakers

It has always been about "putting women in their place" - out of the workforce, out of education, back into homes and under the control of men.

A woman's right to choose starts with her own body and continues into her own finances, careers, education. Eroding one opens the door to steal others.

Underestimating support for climate action limits political decision making, study says Research reveals huge disparity between perceived and actual willingness of public to contribute to fixing climate

BAM! From my colleague @joshettinger.bsky.social:

I hope our research encourages policy officials to be braver and pursue more ambitious climate policies. They have more public support than they may realise.”
