Humans are responsible for 100% of the *increase* of atmospheric CO2 since the pre-Industrial era. It's increased by about 50% since then.

Outrageous and unacceptable. La Rioja, Spain now permits hunters to take wolf heads and pelts as trophies. This small Iberian wolf population faces serious danger, and years of protection are at risk. #stoptrophyhunting #protectwolves

Wolf hunters in Spain allowed to keep heads as trophies
La Rioja has become the first region to permit souvenirs from killing the animals, to the disgust of conservationists

This is a shock, Jane Goodall (1934-2025) has died. One of my dad’s cousins knew her & would regularly give me updates on her adventures & chimps. She was a great force for good & part of my childhood. 91 is a good age, but it’s personal when your heroes die.

I keep repeating myself: the anti-vax movement is extremely stupid. The fact that this is an ideological topic rather than a simple scientific problem is insane.

Wow. And here I am really careful to never give anything approaching medical advice because I'm not a medical doctor. And I've definitely never made any claims about *checks notes* hepatitas.

Highly normal. Nothing to see here, folks.
Pregnant Women, DON’T USE TYLENOL UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY, DON’T GIVE TYLENOL TO YOUR YOUNG CHILD FOR VIRTUALLY ANY REASON, BREAK UP THE MMR SHOT INTO THREE TOTALLY SEPARATE SHOTS (NOT MIXED!), TAKE CHICKEN P SHOT SEPARATELY, TAKE HEPATITAS B SHOT AT 12 YEARS OLD, OR OLDER, AND, IMPORTANTLY, TAKE VACCINE IN 5 SEPARATE MEDICAL VISITS!

A new bill, H.R. 5171, would strip gray wolves in Washington and Oregon of ESA protections. Human-caused deaths are already the leading threat.

This bill, like others introduced this year, will not solve conflicts. It will only lead to more wolf killings. #ProtectWolves

It bears repeating that nearly the entire US enterprise in science and technology has been irreversibly gutted. This is shocking.

All this loss has occurred without any real benefit to the average US citizen. Except we now have the biggest, best funded secret police force perhaps ever.

Yay for us!

A rainbow crosswalk in Orlando that was part of the city’s Pulse Memorial was painted over by the state last night at the order of Ron DeSantis.

The memorial honored the 49 people fatally shot by a gunman at the Pulse LGBTQ nightclub in 2016 — the largest mass shooting in the country at the time.
