Flames destroying the protective layer at #COP30 climate talks? A screenwriter would be deemed a hack for that scene. But as emissions rise even as we end yet another extraordinarily hot year, the truth of our #climate crisis is stranger than fiction. newsweek.com/the-roof-is-on…

Just a year ago, @rhodium_group projected a steeper GHG decline of 38-56% by 2035. The lowest of that previous range is now better than we can expect. Why? Trump and the 119th Congress brought "the most abrupt shift in energy and climate policy in recent memory."

We find the US is on track to reduce GHG emissions by 26-41% in 2040 relative to 2005 levels. On the way to 2040, we estimate GHG emissions levels will decline 26-35% in 2035. rhg.com/research/takin…

"All the extremist-related murders in 2022 were committed by right-wing extremists... White supremacists commit the greatest number of domestic extremist-related murders in most years." from: Murder and Extremism in the United States in 2022 | ADL

EARHARDT: We have radicals on the right as well. How do we fix this country? TRUMP: I'll tell you something that's gonna get me in trouble but I couldn't care less. The radicals on the right oftentimes are radical because they don't want to see crime. The radicals on the left are the problem.
