I wrote this NASA page about wildfires and climate change, and I'm so excited it's finally live. It's a tireless effort to get big pages published at NASA - as it should be!
How long will it remain up? Who knows. Check it out while you still can. 🧪 #climatesky

Climate Change Could Cut the Economy in Half. We’re Not Ready for It.
A new study suggests global warming’s effect on GDP has been vastly underestimated. Will it finally break through the religion of infinite growth?

Global warming has accelerated, a lot!
The first 19 days of 2025 were on average +1.74°C above pre-industrial.
That's about 0.1°C warmer than the same period last year. Then we had an El Niño, now a La Niña.

What a great review 🧵! My book was useful 🥰
(It's hard to feel like one's efforts matter, on a day like today, so I'm extra grateful for this.)

Thanks to @doctorvive.bsky.social for her book "The Language of Climate Politics" which dismantles fossil-fuel talking points. I was on a local cable program called "The Liberal View" which alternates every couple of months with "The Conservative View."

Every wildfire starts with an ignition – downed powerlines, lightning, arson – and we can do a lot to reduce these.
But in California the number of fires has dropped while the area burned has doubled. What has changed is conditions, not ignitions:
