“They don't think Jesus is going to fix the climate, they think they can throw their garbage in the oceans, burn the forests, pollute the air, drill Baby drill, and instead of having to face the consequences, Jesus will show up and whisk them all away to Christian Heaven where they get to live in paradise while smugly laughing at the sinners burning down below.” - Jim Wright

Much damage has been done to our societies and the #climate due to #fossilFuels
The alternative was always there, but it was systematically destroyed
Appreciate the irony though:
Big Oil's decline has been ensured by their greatest triumph, #Trump
The stupid war on #Iran means every country will move off #oil
#China's #EV makers are kings of the world now

One thing about America: No modern city has ever run out of water. That could be changing in Texas. The reservoirs of Corpus Christi, a city with a population of around 317,000, are on track to completely dry up by next year. @InsideClimate has more:

"Do you sleep well at night Mrs O'Neill? Now you are driving our climate even further into the ground while booking exceptional results for your shareholders.

On April 28, GOP Rep. Jim Jordan accused environmental law scholars of bias, conspiracy and colluding to influence the U.S. judiciary.
The next day, free-market conservatives kicked off a multiday climate skepticism event for more than 150 judges.

Realistic AI-generated climate disaster images decrease support for climate action when artificial origin is suspected
Policymakers and environmental advocacy organizations are increasingly using AI-generated images of climate disasters to advocate for climate interventions. Here we show that highly realistic AI-generated climate disaster images do not increase support for climate action

Trump Exempted Some of the Nation’s Biggest Polluters From Air Quality Rules. All It Took Was an Email.
---
In an unprecedented move, the administration has granted industrial facilities in 38 states and Puerto Rico a two-year reprieve from federal rules under the Clean Air Act. The president is considering exempting even more.

PM Carney seems ready to suspend environmental regulation in Canada under the illusion that he can buy political peace with Danielle Smith (ie the oil industry).
The benefits will be real: for a handful of companies with already-bloated profits.
The costs will be real too: a rising tide of economic and ecological disaster that sinks all boats.
AP: Trump administration cancels rule that made conservation a ‘use’ of public lands
"...The federal government’s vast land holdings are concentrated in Western states including Alaska, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming. Since taking office, Trump has pursued a flurry of actions aimed at boosting fossil fuel production from those taxpayer-owned sites. The Republican administration also has sought to sideline some renewable energy projects, claiming they were unfairly subsidized under Biden...."

Cuba's oil reserves have run dry, its government said, potentially plunging the country into more debilitating #blackouts.
A long-running #EnergyCrisis in the island nation reached a breaking point this week, when government officials said they had run out of reserves.
This whole world runs on #FossilFuels, how stupid is that?

1/ This announcement marks the Carney government’s official surrender to the oil and gas lobby.
By gutting carbon pricing to the point of irrelevance, it has dismantled the last federal climate measure standing. We now have a federal government that no longer even pretends to rein in big corporate polluters.

Do you know what you're wearing to the next #apocalypse? Let's plan ahead.
I realize it sounds hyperbolic, but we've been here before. Trust me: You've done this before. You know this.
It's always been there, but it showed up in clearer outline this year. We each have #histories of what we've survived, of what our relatives have told us of how they survived.
The #Montreal ice storm is one that many of us remember well ...
