This is why climate journalists need to be more than science journalists, covering culture, consciousness, and ultimately what it means to be human. Our birthright is not to dominate Earth; it is to relax into our exquisite reciprocal, interdependent relationship.
Well, @elonmusk, it would be if Twitter didn’t make it so easy for lies aimed at manipulating to be equated with journalism that has at its core a commitment to truth, accuracy, and fairness. Journalism reports competing voices in the marketplace of ideas without outright lying.

#KQED's @DanielleVenton and @SRodd_CPR investigated why California isn't doing more prescribed burns. They found @CAL_FIRE is fumbling key responsibilities related to forest management and wildfire mitigation, potentially leaving the state at greater risk of catastrophic fires.
