Climate fatalism is just as wrong as climate denial โ€” it's never 'too late' for change Veteran environmentalist David Suzuki believes the time has passed us to stop climate change. He's wrong.

HEY here's a new piece for @crikey.com.au!

Sparked by David Suzuki's recent comments, but more broadly in response to the recent rise of performative fatalism: the reassuring, widely popular and lazy idea that fighting back against fossil fuels is worthless

E.P.A. Plans to Close All Environmental Justice Offices An internal memo directs the closure of offices designed to ease the heavy pollution faced by poor and minority communities.

Of course. "Mr. Zeldinโ€™s move effectively ends three decades of work at the E.P.A. to try to ease the pollution that burdens poor and minority communities, which are frequently located near highways, power plants, industrial plants, and other polluting facilities.

Yes, there's been an irreversible, if slow, shift to a clean energy economy. And the coalition has broadened and should do so further.
