The speed of climate change has even shocked some of the world's top scientists. Thinking net zero 2050 is getting civilization out of this "hole" is beyond delusional - "huge hole discovered in Arctic's last ice"

This is a hell of a finding: "We find [subways] have reduced population-related CO₂ emissions by about 50% for the 192 cities [studied] and about 11% globally." (h/t @giulio_mattioli) doi.org/10.1016/j.scit…

This iconic graph tracks how rapidly our planet is warming. Yet every time it's shared on Twitter, someone always asks, "Why does it begin in 1850?" The answer is simple: it's when we first had enough thermometers to compute a truly representative global temperature average.

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s safer to NOT have them. Via @StreetsblogUSA usa.streetsblog.org/2019/05/29/pro…

If it takes 50 votes to confirm a Supreme Court justice, it should only take 50 votes to overrule them when they act like highly-partisan politicians.

At least try. Call it the No More Dead Children Act. Ban every automatic and semiautomatic weapon from consumer sale. Generous buybacks for banned guns and ammo. Extensive background checks, minimum age to purchase 21 for hunting rifles. At least try

There will be a parade of politicians in Harris County this weekend kissing the ring of the NRA at their annual convention. Leaders from all sides need to call out their extremism for what it is - an absolutist opposition to any kind of safeguard/gun safety policy.
