Federal-Alberta MOU risks unravelling Canada’s climate policy
While promised improvements to industrial carbon pricing are positive and important, other aspects of Alberta-Canada MOU will undermine policy effectiveness across the country.

With 4 days of data to go, November, 2025, will likely end up as the third warmest November on record and third warmest November in the last 120,000+ years.
November will also mark the second consecutive month breaking 1.5°C over the 1850-1900 pre-industrial baseline.
Stay tuned!

About 90,000 people living near larger chemical plants face an unacceptable risk of developing cancer, the EPA says.
New rules adopted last year could’ve cut that number to 3,000 residents — a drop of 97%.
But Trump has halted those efforts.

Yesterday I took a city bus from Aachen across an international boundary, then got on another city bus to a nature park on a mountain for FIVE FREAKING EUROS.
At home, in Boston, it takes 7 dollars to ride a train a few miles within city limits.
What the hell is wrong with us?

Paper lids for paper cups in Aachen. Sure would like to see these in the US. Reusable would be better, of course, but still a huge improvement.

Hanging out in a very cool, queer friendly thrift store in Aachen, hoping to find a particular recording of Das Lied Von der Erde, but found this oddity of German pop music delectation instead.
A solid pass for me.

A recent spate of rich, Republican, white guys running for office in Massachusetts.
First, Josh Kraft bought a house in Boston just as he decided to run for Mayor. His policy free campaign seemed to be centered on "those born into privilege should serve."

I know it’s difficult because the returns are so high, but they really have to grow a principle or two.

FDNH also has a fantastic website that serves as a clearinghouse for information on the health harms of the climate crisis and also documents the shameful ongoing investments by health institutions into oil, gas, coal industries. Lots of good reports!

The first album by Rupa & the April Fishes, eXtraOrdinary Rendition.
At first blush it is rooted in the street music idiom, but it is so not that. Witty, poignant, and great fun. Great players. I love the use of “extended technique” here and there. Mostly en Français.

Met a couple of train spotters from Philly at Readville station this morning. Had an intelligent conversation about the merits of light rail as I waited for my (late) heavy rail—within city limits—to get downtown for the No Kings rally.

There is truth to the idea that media outlets are drawn to negative, sensational news. Everyone writes about Florida eliminating vaccine mandates. Yet we have a letter signed by over 1,000 Florida physicians opposing this decision, and no outlet would published it. They don't even respond at all.
