The claim that “emissions have come down” in this @nytimes.com @sominisengupta.bsky.social article on where we are ten years post-Paris is FALSE.
Global emissions were at an all-time high in 2024.
As it stands this claim is misinformation. They need to issue a correction!

A court has ruled that TotalEnergies has misled consumers by presenting itself as a “major player in the energy transition”.
It is the first judgement in the world ruling an Oil & Gas major has misled the public by greenwashing its image.

Meat is a blind spot for people who care about climate. When I used to have dinner with my colleague Wally Broecker, the climate scientist who coined the term “global warming”, he would always order a steak.

Right now, climate activists from all over Europe are blocking the oil refinery in Mongstad. This week we will shut down the oil state of Norway in the biggest action ever against the deadly fossil industry.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
