In Washington, Birds Are Giving ‘Yelp Reviews’ of Forest Restoration Work

I want birds to review my forest restoration work too.

A statement today from @nationalacademies.org "affirmed that childhood vaccines are safe for the general population (and have) long-established benefits of preventing illness and averting death." This is in response to misinformation published on the CDC website under orders of RFK Jr.

Area woman can't stop talking about heat pumps, family and friends are worried Can’t stop will stump heat pump

Like @sarahlazarovic.bsky.social, I never shut up about heat pumps. Honestly, it's as if heat pumps were my grandchildren--I'm sooo proud of them.

My quest today, however, is to see a photo or short video of Sarah dressed like a heat pump. I promise to reshare if anyway is willing to provide one.

Your simple clear message is arguably the most important prescription humanity has if it is serious about protecting our children & grandchildren, and their children & grandchildren, for the next 100 generations. The RX for a livable world.

Sierra Leone challenges COP30 push for private sector to fund adaptation Sierra Leone’s Minister for Environment and Climate Change Jiwoh Abdulai says that the private sector can’t meet adaptation needs.

Important: Do not count on the private sector to fund adaptation. They have no incentive to do it well and governments DO HAVE THE MONEY, they just need to stop doing other useless stuff like building weapons.

Jeffrey Epstein, climate change doubter » Yale Climate Connections Newly released emails show Epstein peddling climate denial myths to scientist Lawrence Krauss while Trump’s first term was getting underway.

A dumpster fire of absurdity: Epstein, Trump, and climate denial.
