Highly recommend this essay from climate economist Noah Kaufman -- a needed corrective to the misguided arrogance that most economists bring to the subject of climate policy.

This could only be done by someone with no grasp of the dire situation our climate is in, or that the costs of the climate emergency will be felt first by the poorest.

To quote the current Foreign Secretary, approving Rosebank is ”climate vandalism".

"Climate denial is out of touch with reality.They accept scientific facts that benefit humankind in medicine,so why cherry-pick and deny climate science? It's time to reject the lies of climate deniers and stand up for our planet's future. Like and retweet to spread the truth.

What does Trump's rollback of methane rules mean for the climate? Read this thread ⤵️
1/ Last month, I obtained details of a plan by Trump's EPA to weaken restrictions on methane pollution from oil and gas wells.

Last night the EPA largely confirmed what I had seen.

Here’s what it means for the climate — and who stands to benefit:

The top 0.1% aren't just profiting from the pollution that's accelerating climate change. They're also making money off of disaster preparedness, recovery and the surging prices caused by extreme weather. I call it the asshole feedback loop.

Young people are taking the feds to court, arguing Canada’s climate law fails to protect their Charter rights. Ottawa says its control over climate change is limited. The trial could reshape climate accountability. @stefanlabbe.bsky.social's first for The Narwhal: thenarwhal.ca/canada-youth...
Can lawsuits hold governments accountable for climate change? | The Narwhal
A landmark trial in Canada is part of a growing global wave of climate litigation testing whether governments can be held legally responsible for failing to protect people from a warming world

Not, “climate litigation!”

Just like tobacco and climate.
🚨"Internal memos among company scientists and executives obtained by The Times reveal that for at least half a century, the plastics industry has been aware of and concerned about the potential for microplastic contamination in the human body."
Industry executives knew for decades that microplastics were infiltrating the human body
Decades before microplastics were found in human hearts and brains, industry executives privately knew about tiny plastic particles crossing the gut lining, documents from the 1970s and 1980s show.

The Biden administration had sought to crack down on methane leaks, a big driver of climate change. Those rules are now being scaled back.

The climate crisis in one sentence:
We have enough food, technology, and money to save the planet. We just have a system where destroying it is more profitable. That's not a climate problem. That's a greed problem. #ClimateJustice

Liebe @ec.europa.eu
Ihr meint es gut mit dem climate resilience framework, ich weiß.
Problem ist: an eine 3°C heißere Welt KÖNNEN wir uns nicht mehr anpassen.
Die Extremwetter, Dürren, Überschwemmungen kommen dann Schlag auf Schlag.
Seid bitte ehrlich.

Super-rich get ‘double dividend’ from causes and costs of climate crisis.

They profit from polluting industries, and through the ‘adaptation economy’.

Super-rich buy govts, control means of production and think tanks.

Victims pay higher prices for food, homes, relocations.

Who governs?

“We have likely seen just a sliver of the evidence they have that shows they’ve spent decades knowingly deceiving the public about climate science, climate harms, and their commitment to climate action.”

More truth to be uncovered. Stay tuned.

In "water is wet" news, more research showing that Big Oil is executing a disinformation campaign about climate change. This analysis shows how climate disinformation isn't just a barrier to climate action. It's a danger to public health.
In today's landmark 2026 Lancet Countdown assessment, my brilliant postdoc Dr @vkjohnson.bsky.social & I synthesize the history of Big Oil disinformation alongside behavioral science evidence of its implications for climate action & public health. #LancetClimate26 lancetcountdown.org/2026-report/
