@mikebettes@weatherchannel Let everyone know that global heating from burning fossil fuels is making storms worse, and the effects will become more intense according to how much more fossil fuels we use.
A HUGE news story totally ignored by corporate media: the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change now explicitly calls for actions such as moving away from a conception of economic progress based solely on GDP growth to try to slow today's accelerating 6th mass extinction. 🧵
CO2 levels in the air reached a new record high in May: 421 ppm
The CO2 rise has accelerated to 2.5ppm per year in the 2010s
For any chance of limiting global warming to 1.5°C, the CO2 rise must slow rapidly then STOP
2 ppm/yr in 2020s
1 ppm/yr in early 2030s
0 ppm/yr by 2040
"We understand the science, and we have the technologies to get to net-zero electricity and solve the crisis that exists. We merely lack the political will and the necessary sense of urgency to make it happen."
We repeat: SENSE OF URGENCY! #ClimateEmergency#ScientistRebellion
@JoeBiden Landlord’s need help too. It’s not fair to expect them to subsidize tenants. Tenants are not paying rent but Landlord’s are still responsible for heat, taxes, mortgages, water, sewage, snow removal, repairs, garbage and insurance?
On the @DataProgress blog, @SenSchumer blasts deficit scolding on the right regarding $2,000 checks.
"These are the same Republicans who added $2 trillion to the deficit in order to give massive tax breaks to billionaires and large corporations."

What if Trump really is in cahoots with the Russians and allowed them to orchestrate the hacks, just to sow doubt on the election? #underthebus @realDonaldTrump tries to downplay, redirect blame on Russia’s massive cyberspy campaign against U.S. https://t.co/wfjm7xQdpE
