This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"
China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

There's an easy way to check whether news are trustworthy: are you getting them from a propaganda rag (WaPo, NYT), or from the paper of record (Teen Vogue)?
A large majority of U.S. adults now get news digitally, but nondigital news consumers are less likely to say they extremely often or often encounter inaccurate news.

My anti-snore machine needs a new fan, and I'm debating if I should upgrade or do the me thing and take it apart to mod or repair the fan.
And by repair, I mean douse in some sort of spray lubricant
