Three Republicans have now voted against Mike Johnson (and have rejected Trump’s endorsement). Quite a statement of independence, Johnson is going to have to negotiate and give some ground to get their votes. Will be interesting to see if this turns into Kevin McCarthy 2.0

There’s been widespread media coverage today of NOAA’s Arctic Report Card — especially the fact that wildfires and warming are turning the region from a carbon sink to a carbon source. Here’s the amazing map that @gfiske.bsky.social prepared for the report, with data from Virkkala et al 2024.

Always appreciate Sen. Ed Markey’s dedication to climate action and his attendance at #COP29 to say that the US will keep moving forward on climate in many ways, even if Trump pulls the country from the Paris Agreement.
