On Grist, Kate Yoder asks why, in the year of our lord 2023, with climate impacts visibly crashing down around us, people still fall for the #climatescam stuff. Unsurprisingly I have a lot to say on the matter but here I'd just share one thought. grist.org/politics/why-p…

Oil execs knew natural gas was bad for the climate, but promoted it anyway. That's just one of many revelations from new documents released this week as part of a congressional investigation into Big Oil's climate deception. For grist, w/ Kate Yoder. grist.org/accountability…

A year ago, climate scientist Patrick T. Brown criticized his own wildfire study in Nature, causing an uproar. I kept wondering why he did it. I spent the summer talking to Patrick and those who know him, reviewing private emails, to get the inside scoop grist.org/science/patric…

in recent years, i noticed that the concept of "climate anxiety" had become a sort of a privilege punch line, and an emotion/experience shared by millions risked going the way of self-care and wellness culture. i wanted to explore why for grist: grist.org/culture/climat…
