Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy

With the world heating up [and more pedestrians being killed], why are more SUVs being sold?
“It’s the industry that has driven the demand through huge marketing & advertising campaigns in recent years. SUVs offered the industry a simple way of charging more for a vehicle that does the same thing.”

The same people who deny that releasing 40+ billion tonnes of chemicals annually into the atmosphere changes our climate think that an airplane spraying a few tonnes of chemicals into the atmosphere definitely does. I want the world to be less stupid, as well as less evil.

Dear Climate Bsky,
can you recommend movies on the climate crisis to watch with students (adult, beginning university) with no or little background in natural sciences?
In particular, movies that would serve as starting point for interesting discussions and not overly long?

Sadly, the now-famous summer activation of the former highway for cars running alone the Seine River in Paris, transforming it into a vibrant and popular people-place, doesn’t start for another two weeks.
So this is all that’s going on.

Look people, no matter how much we destroy the Earth by polluting it with CO₂, microplastics, PFAS, etc. everywhere, and even if AMOC shuts down and both the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets melt, the Earth will still be infinitely more habitable than Mars. Mars is a shithole and we're not going.

As climate scientists, we can only tell you why climate change is happening and how severe the consequences will be. It takes voters to choose politicians who will listen and enact policies to avoid the worst possible outcomes.

Jetzt sollen wir 5 % unseres BIP für Verteidigung ausgeben – wegen Putins Krieg. Und womit finanziert er ihn? Mit Öl. Jeder Euro, den wir für Erdöl ausgeben, macht 37 Cent Rüstungsausgaben nötig. Wann, wenn nicht jetzt, stoppen wir neue Ölheizungen und Verbrenner?

Canada is potentially about to elect a Prime Minister with a PhD in economics from Oxford, Mexico elected someone with a degree in physics and a PhD in energy engineering…
Meanwhile, America elected a barely sentient orange turnip.

This is Winston Churchill visiting Washington DC to request assistance in the war against Germany. Notice he is wearing a "zip suit" and not a traditional suit. This was to honor the British troops--the same reason Zelensky dresses the way he does.

Ian Fleming's original James Bond novels haven't aged well. For example, Moonraker - published almost exactly 70 years ago in April 1955 - features a villain who's a super-rich industrialist and rocket-maker seeking to cause chaos because he's a secret Nazi. Such a silly idea!
