“A powerful US oil and gas industry lobby group has drawn up detailed plans to kill off penalties for emitting methane, a potent planet-heating gas that’s increasing at the fastest rate in decades, with this effort led by a major donor to Donald Trump…” https://t.co/SsweltJQgt

“This isn’t complicated,” says @SenWhitehouse. “Climate risk makes things uninsurable. No insurance makes things unmortgageable. No mortgages crashes the property markets. Crashed property markets trash the economy.”

FUCK, LOADS OF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE.

Top earth scientists write they want to "tell it like it is" -

"WIDESPREAD famines" .. "WIDESPREAD"
You can't grow crops at scale in a broken climate

"Conflict"
"Mass migration"
"Catastrophic consequences for humanity AND the biosphere"

"These projections paint a bleak picture of the future, with many scientists envisioning widespread famines, conflicts, mass migration, and increasing extreme weather that will surpass anything witnessed thus far, posing catastrophic consequences for both humanity and the biosphere."

A montage of cool trail camera videos we have captured over the past few years including some nice footage of elusive wildlife and some interesting behaviors like a bobcat carrying a live snowshoe hare, a lynx ambushing, and more.

Big thanks to the @mnenrtf for their continued support of our project, which lets us to not only capture this footage but also share this footage with everyone for free!

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

If Donald Trump is elected, the struggle against climate change is over. The United States will withdraw from the movement toward sustainable energy.

What kind of planet will we be leaving to our kids and future generations?

That’s what’s on ballot this November.

CO2 capture is a failed technology.

“The very industry that should be paying for cleaning up emissions is instead pocketing billions in public money that should go to transitioning to renewables.”

Carbon capture is not the answer to the climate crisis https://t.co/mpbQagbe2b

When you lose an election – you say so. That's how democracy works.

The Trump-Vance Ticket continues to lie about 2020. That alone is disqualifying.

[Seth Klein @SethDKlein]

This is great!
Dozens of Vancouver construction industry leaders have sent a letter calling on city council to reverse its plan to start allowing natural gas heating in new buildings.

Excellent comments from @Lanefab & other builders. https://t.co/UUFfxG4kYm via @VancouverSun

This is crazy

Dahlias becoming a hotel for frogs.

Allison Lamb raises around 200 dahlias on her property and was delighted to discover that the blooms serve as a perfectly sized house for frogs.

Such an excellent illustration of how inefficient fossil fuels are and how manufactured our dependency actually is.

Close to half of all shipping traffic worldwide is just moving fossil fuels around

Historic frost in BOTSWANA
This morning Werda dropped to -0.6C and Tsabong to 0.0C.
Among official stations this is the first time in decades Botswana records a frost in October.
2 days ago there was record heat for September with 41C+ on the highlands. Absolutely brutal.
