Nah, climate change isn’t a big deal. Let’s wait until 2035 to get those solar panels up.

This is so sad, @nytimes @NYTimesOpEd. You’ve lost another reader. Bye-bye.

It’s clear that Greenland’s ice is melting. But the key to addressing climate change lies in markets, not government, Bret Stephens writes. Read more about his trip to Greenland. https://t.co/3NqPg0VTZz

When @NYTimes hired climate inactivist @BretStephen_NYT, climate folks said "that's it, I'm canceling my subscription". But I pushed back: "Hold on. Times has much to offer & maybe he'll improve etc". Well I was wrong. Both Stephens & Times have gone off the cliff. And I'm done.

“I must say, in my professional life as a climate scientist, this is a low point. The window for 1.5C is shutting as I speak, so it’s really tough.” Important interview with @dpcarrington yesterday. We need to act now.

Meat companies are trying to convince people that beef production looks like the image on the left.

But virtually all of the beef people eat is raised on factory farms like the image on the right.

"Sustainable beef" is a complete fiction.

“We need to all be a little bit more accountable,” Newsom said, “to this crisis of affordability.”

I’d argue a lot more accountable… https://t.co/Rhz1nH8Ur9

New study more than triples estimated costs of climate change damages https://t.co/8ghKiDjttF @YaleClimateComm

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

I'm terrified by what we're seeing this summer, and by knowing how fast it's getting worse, and by how there's not really a ceiling on how bad it can get, and by how almost everyone still pretends business as usual can go on. Those who are not terrified don't have a clue.

The nearly weeklong heat wave blasting the West with record-setting temperatures could go down as the worst hot spell in Northern California for the month of September, and perhaps all time. https://t.co/fXi5apbcbE

I was in Europe. Lost 10 pounds in under 2 weeks. Came back to the US. Inflamed and stomach is in pain. What the hell is in our food?

[Tara Holmes @tmhol]

I think the same thing…as I chug my 11th glass of water for the day.

[Andrew Fleischman @ASFleischman]

Why do our children live in constant fear of dehydration? I spent my entire childhood without carrying an ounce of water on my person but my kids are treated like beached orcas.
