NASA "Tulare Lake, in California’s San Joaquin Valley, was once the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi River. The lake would grow every winter as rainfall and snowmelt from the nearby Sierra Nevada range flowed down and filled the basin. By 1920, the rivers that fed the lake were dammed and diverted for uses such as irrigation. Since then, the lakebed has been covered with farms that grow a variety of crops."

"The climate cost of L.A.'s police choppers"
"For their unnecessary joy rides over L.A., celebrities have been called “climate criminals.” What, then, should we call the L.A. police?"

- This is a #climatechange
story that fossil fuel billionaires and their GOP lackeys would rather you didn’t know. -
- As more and more people are killed by extraordinarily severe weather in places where it used to be unusual it’s going to get harder and harder to keep Red State citizens from finding out how badly they’ve been screwed by the unholy alliance between Republicans and oil barons. -

"As of today, the unthinkably wealthy owner of Twitter has blocked Twitter users from liking, sharing, and commenting on Substack posts. This means that literally hundreds of independent climate publications like HEATED can no longer effectively share their work on Twitter because of Musk—who seemingly only did this out of retribution after Substack launched a Twitter-like feature of its own."

There are three ways to lie. Lying my commission, lying by omission, and paltering (deceiving by telling the truth. Oil and Gas companies choose the latter. See this article by Emily Atkin👇

"If greenhouse gas emissions continue at today’s levels, the current in the deepest parts of the ocean could slow down by 40% in only three decades.
This, the scientists said, could generate a cascade of impacts that could push up sea levels, alter weather patterns and starve marine life of a vital source of nutrients." via https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-05762-w.epdf

Good for them - we need a lot more actions like this. If we look to current politicians and corporations to end #climatechange we are doomed. Of course the Daily Mail accused them of being Woke.

Prof. Michael E Mann on the IPCC and the Alaska drilling project that Biden should not have Okayed
Qui bono - who benefits. Benefiters of the failure of several banks recently are Chase, Citi, Wells-Fargo, and Bank of America. The too big to fail banks. - they are also some of the biggest financers of the #FossilFuel industry and thus #climatechange
In both Canada and the US banks and mortgage companies will insist you get home insurance to cover the cost of the mortgage.
Consider that and how it will be affected by #climatechange. In some places they may refuse to insure at all or the price will be so high many will not be able to afford it. As the effects of #climaechange inevitably worsen larger and larger tracts of both countries will not be coverable.
Svitlana Romanko was registered for #CERAweek
but when she flew to the US and went to enter the conference she was refused entry because she is one of the EUs biggest climate action proponents and they did not want to hear her message.
CERAWeek is an annual energy conference organized by the information and insights company S&P Global in Houston, Texas
Big Oil Shuts the Door on Ukraine's Foremost Energy Campaigner
“I thought that 30 years of good science could address these problems. I was wrong. The top environmental problems are selfishness, greed and apathy, and to deal with these we need a cultural and spiritual transformation. And we scientists don’t know how to do that.”
James Gustave Speth. (American environmental lawyer and advocate, co-founder of the Natural Resources Defense Council)
I couldn't agree more

Costa Rica is almost 100% powered by renewable energy
Biden's "commitment" to #climatechange is tepid at best. Here is just one example https://www.commondreams.org/news/biden-big-oil-gas-exports
"A new report published Wednesday details how the fossil fuel industry—with assistance from the Biden administration—has taken advantage of Russia's war on Ukraine to secure long-term methane gas export contracts that will lock in years of planet-warming emissions and further pad Big Oil's profits."
World Scientists’ Warning of a Climate Emergency 2022
"We are now at “code red” on planet Earth. Humanity is unequivocally facing a climate emergency. The scale of untold human suffering, already immense, is rapidly growing with the escalating number of climate-related disasters. Therefore, we urge scientists, citizens, and world leaders to read this Special Report and quickly take the necessary actions to avoid the worst effects of climate change."
