What happens if property insurers are allowed to exclude wildfires from coverage? “Are we just going to turn everybody loose and let the fires burn our houses down?” Nevada just did — and others may follow.

Nevada just let property insurers exclude wildfire coverage. Homeowners won’t realize until it’s too late that fire isn't covered. Expect shock, underinsurance, and scrambling for expensive new policies. Plus: pressure for a federal wildfire safety net. open.substack.com/pub/susanpcr...

Self compassion - a beautiful and necessary thing for us humans 🙂

When Big Oil companies claim to be partners in climate solutions, remember: they are lying.

If you squint, you might be able to see how much energy generated by Big Oil comes from renewables.

For BP and Shell, it's less than half a percent.

For Exxon and Chevron? ZERO, according to a new study.

Climate Change Led to At Least 16,500 Heat Deaths in Europe This Summer A new study tracked the effects of higher temperatures in hundreds of European cities.

The next time your elected representative preaches about "all of the above" energy policy, maybe ask if they know how many more heat deaths that means. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Nicely done, America

For the first time ever China will sell more electric cars than the US sells of gas and electric cars combined 🤯

I hate it when someone writes a super creepy letter from me and forges my signature in a birthday gift to a close friend of mine.

I for damned sure want people to know how we got to this dangerous climate precipice, and who is to blame.

I’m headed to the Senate floor to deliver my 301st Time to Wake Up speech.

Undermining the Fed to get lower rates now is like ripping the batteries out of your smoke alarm because it’s beeping. It’s quiet for a bit. Then your house burns down. Credibility anchors expectations; expectations anchor inflation.

Trump-fueled LNG boom has fenceline Gulf Coast communities on edge Residents cite pollution, loss of fishing and diminished tax revenue as liquefied natural gas production accelerates here, feeding demand from Europe and Asia

“We will still keep fighting and speaking up to do everything we can to stop these projects, because our community doesn't want these projects,” said Bekah Hinojosa. “I mean, for us, it’s about continuing to exist here.” bit.ly/3HGtMc4

Is summer getting longer where you live? See how temperatures changed. The hottest stretch of the year is expanding beyond any calendar definition of summer. See what regions are experiencing the biggest change.

Climate change is a hoax. Right.

Tell me the president doesn’t understand the economy without telling me the president doesn’t understand the economy.

Antarctica is in extreme peril New research catalogs several “abrupt changes,” like a precipitous loss of sea ice, unfolding in Antarctica with dire implications for us all.

Antarctica is in extreme peril.

"Abrupt changes" threaten to send the continent past the point of no return, a new study finds.

THIS is why communities across the country are suing Big Oil.

We can't afford more billion-dollar disasters.

Big Oil has known for decades that burning fossil fuels could lead to "catastrophic" climate change — but instead of warning us, they lied to delay climate action and protect their $$.

Rather than grapple with the research demonstrating that climate change will diminish labor productivity, drag down economic growth, and reshape the geographic distribution of the U.S. labor force, the Fed is neglecting the impacts of climate change and the needed policy response.

Reporters Note: The Federal Reserve’s climate change neglect continues at Jackson Hole - Public Citizen Climate change will have destabilizing effects on insurance and housing markets, state and local governments, and contribute to a variety of adverse economic outcomes,

The Federal Reserve has once again left climate change off the agenda at Jackson Hole, ignoring the impacts of climate change on this year's theme: Labor Markets in Transition.

What Danielle said.

According to the Yale Budget Lab, the average effective tariff rate in this economy right now is 18.2%

Let me put that another way.

President Trump has raised taxes on American businesses and consumers by -- on average -- 18.2%

The UK is back in the clean energy game in a big, big way 👀

Donald Trump promised to lower costs for working families. He didn’t just break that promise, he betrayed it. While families struggle to afford groceries, he handed tax breaks to billionaires and big corporations.

Donald Trump sold out the American people.

look I'm not myself a political scientist so I can't say what effects it would have for a spate of politicians to crop up saying "the enemy is the oligarchy" and "the enemy is billionaires" while swinging a kettlebell but I think we should try it for science and see what happens

‘A climate of unparalleled malevolence’: are we on our way to the sixth major mass extinction? The long read: Churning quantities of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere at the rate we are going could lead the planet to another Great Dying

"The rate at which humans are now injecting CO2 into the oceans & atmosphere far surpasses the planet’s ability to keep pace. We're now at the initial stages of a system failure. If we keep at it for much longer, we might see what actual failure really means."

Thankful for this summary, and the call to push on

Plastics Treaty talks are over. After 11 grueling days of delays, distractions, and gaslighting, we are leaving Geneva without a treaty. But countries stood firm against fossil-fueled interests — hope for an ambitious #PlasticsTreaty lives on.

Is this really the muggiest summer in Pittsburgh history? Here’s the data. Weather data from the region shows a growing trend of hotter, wetter summers. Average high temperatures for June broke records set in the 40s.

Big Oil is stealing our summers. 😠

Meanwhile, the costs to protect communities from heatwaves and other extreme weather events keeps rising.

Motherfucking wind farms…

World on brink of climate breakthrough as fossil fuels ‘run out of road’, UN chief says António Guterres says ‘sun is rising on a clean energy age’ as 90% of renewable power projects cheaper than fossil fuels

“More than nine in 10 renewable power projects globally are now cheaper than fossil fuel alternatives.”
