Exxon is — again — asking the Supreme Court to help the oil giant escape trials over its climate lies.

Several justices have "past or present financial or familial ties to the oil industry that could raise questions about their impartiality," @hannahstoryb.bsky.social reports in @prospect.org.

Oil companies insist that if cases are allowed to proceed, it could have major ramifications for the future of their industry. Will a Supreme Court willing to grant Trump immunity for his crimes do th...

'On the surface, one can interpret the art as portraying racial profiling by immigration agents, emboldened enough to arrest someone as beloved as Valenzuela.

'If you look closely, however, the agent’s uniform shows a badge with the name of Walter, as in Mark Walter, the owner of the LA Dodgers.

Yesterday I talked with four top climate scientists about Bill Gates' controversial memo. They explained what Gates got wrong — including how he badly underestimated the harm from rising temperatures, in rich and poor countries alike.

Ahead of this month's COP30 summit in Brazil, billionaire investor Bill Gates is advising world leaders that global warming "will not lead to humanity’s demise."

Is he right?

After our protests, Disney vowed to ditch gas cars at Autopia by Oct 2026-1 yr away. On Halloween, Minnie says make it so! Do it for the employees who double, double toil & trouble to work next to those tailpipes. Fire burns & cauldrons bubble in combustion engines! #ClimateSolutions #LungDisease

An embarrassingly obvious point, but...

This. Is. Illegal.

If anything like the rule of law were in force, Trump couldn't arbitrarily increase a tariff because he is annoyed.

In important and increasing ways, the rule of law in the US no longer exists.

Think of the inspiring climate-solutions stories Disneyland could tell. The Dodgers can ring this bell too. Help make it happen by subscribing to Sammy Roth’s new Substack.
Here's why I left @latimes.com to start a newsletter about climate and culture. The story starts with Disneyland, Autopia and my grandfather, an incredible rabbi who passed away last year at 100. Hope you'll subscribe to Climate-Colored Goggles. www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/why-writin...
Why I'm writing about climate and culture
I never expected to leave the Los Angeles Times and start a Substack. Then a story about Disneyland caught me by surprise.

We made the news! Big Oil Bankrolls Trump & MAGA! Drive #EVs! Our sign spells it out: Fossil fuels & Trump are inseparable. Fighting Trump, who was elected by Big Oil & is paying the industry back by destroying our planet, is fighting climate change. Fighting #climatechange is fighting Trump.
