As I said before the Senate Budget Committee committee, fossil fuel industry disinformation and greenwash block climate action and present enormous costs to people and communities. Time to end these bad practices now. My full statement: budget.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/…

The full evolution of today’s mesmerising #SolarFlare, which continued for over 12 hours! This is a very long duration event, as most flares are over well within an hour of onset. Just look at those flare loops grow! Awe-some stuff. #spaceweather #astronomy

In tonight's debate, Trump (or a moderator) will likely accuse Harris of wanting to "ban fracking." I argue in this piece that she should sidestep that accusation not by denying it, but by saying she supports "freedom of energy choice." Here's why. 🧵 newrepublic.com/article/185693…

BIG: California sues ExxonMobil for "deceiving the public [for decades] that plastic recycling could solve the plastic waste crisis when they clearly knew this wasn’t possible". With plastics as with climate change, #ExxonKnew. theguardian.com/us-news/2024/s…

As grand juror of the upcoming Don Bosco Global Youth Film Festival, I spent the weekend reviewing 200+ climate-themed films produced by youth living in the Global South. Much is said about the power of storytelling, but seeing the crisis through their eyes is another level.

Hurricane Helene has killed at least 100 people caught in catastrophic flooding and landslides across the Southeast. It is projected to be one of the costliest hurricanes in U.S. history. Climate scientist Peter Kalmus says this was “caused by the fossil fuel industry."

We've now hit the fourth wave of climate denial. 1) science denialism 2) predatory delay 3) triangulated plans 4) risk flooding: denial that different places face different risks—"nowhere is safe"—to avoid recognizing irremediable, value-destroying risk in the brittlest places.

Why do fossil fuel trade associations continue to spend more money on PR & advertising than they do on lobbying? It's because they understand the power of communications in enabling their desired outcomes – including oil & gas expansion. desmog.com/2022/12/14/tra…

1/ As millions evacuate from the path of Hurricane #Milton, let's remember the denialist and delayist think tanks and PR companies that have worked so hard to ensure society and our leaders ignore the science and take no action (top chart)
