Hours after Alex Pretti was executed, Apple's Tim Cook went to the WH for the debut of the Melania 'documentary'

His taste and his timing disgust me.

‘Caught off guard’: Storm, king tides flood hundreds of Marin County homes, businesses State and local officials toured neighborhoods struck by a combination of king tides, storm surge and excessive rainfall, which flooded hundreds of buildings in Marin County this weekend.

Hundreds of homes and businesses in Marin County were battered by flooding when a major storm coincided with record-high tides, a sign of things to come as seas keep rising: www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

It’s always about the oil. The invasion of Venezuela is not about democracy, national security, or an unavoidable threat.

It’s always about the oil.

Just possibly it's the oil? A solar panel is the new peace sign

International law won't constrain Trump's thirst for oil. But every solar panel that goes up makes crude reserves that much less valuable

Snapshot of total cumulative 16-day precipitation prediction from ECMWF ensemble. It shows substantial accumulations along the entire Pacific Coast, heaviest from central CA northward into British Columbia. In some favored mountain regions, accumulations exceeding 10-12 inches of liquid equivalent are depicted.

Another very active weather period for Pacific Coast will occur over the next 10 days, with very moist storms and a persistent (atmospheric river-associated) moisture transport corridor bringing copious rain progressively farther south into California by early next week. [Thread]

This is the first "Particularly Dangerous Situation" Fire Weather Warning ever issued anywhere in the state of Colorado.

More than 200 environmental groups demand halt to new US datacenters Exclusive: Congress urged to act against energy-hungry facilities blamed for increasing bills and worsening climate crisis

Unbelievable. This would be a terrible blow to American science, writ large. It would decimate not only climate research, but also the kind of weather, wildfire, and disaster research that has underpinned half a century of progress in prediction, early warning, and increased resilience.

@ncgovernor.bsky.social the methane gas pipeline buildout in our state could increase our electric bills, pollute our drinking water +worsen climate change. It’s time to put communities over corporations! Tell DEQ to DENY permits for the toxic, dangerous SSEP!! #NoSSEP
