Together with the attack on solar and wind, the White House's move to greatly weaken CAFE standards is a prescription for national decay amid global crisis — harming the economy, the environment, and public health.

Phasing out coal, oil, and natural gas is essential for dealing with the climate crisis. But myopic world leaders at this year's global get-together couldn't get it together to build a phase-out roadmap. Next year, they say.

Wetlands and old-growth forests stabilize carbon, sustain indigenous subsistence, buffer storms. Their destruction disproportionately burdens Indigenous peoples, rural communities, poor people and people of color who live in the “extractive zones” of this nation.

We're on a trajectory to hit 2.6°C (4.7°F) of warming by 2100. If that prediction turns out to be right, it will be catastrophic.

Brazil promises a “conference of action.” But unless fossil-fuel power is broken, implementation will mean only managed decline — and another squandered decade.

The EPA had an honor system under which corporations estimated their emissions. A new investigative report shows many of those estimates were way way way off the real levels. Intentional undercount? Surely not.

Greenhouse gas emissions predicted to decline 10% over 1990 by 2035. But to constrain warming the decline needs to be 60%

Ocean acidification is seventh of nine planetary boundaries to be passed. Judge reverses work stoppage White House ordered on giant wind farm off the Rhode Island coast.

Charlie Kirk made a ton of debunked remarks about climate change, labeling as "pagans" the advocates of action to address the crisis

California's publicly owned Turlock Irrigation District has completed construction of Project Nexus, a test of solar panels placed over canals that could ultimately provide 15% of the state's electricity, along with other benefits

Scientists rip Department of Energy's unscientific "farce" of a report written by five of the world's most notorious climate science deniers

It's not hard to imagine our Outlaw Prez ordering that all 19,000 of the "ugly" wind turbines in Texas and the 6,000 in Iowa be bulldozed as part of his energy dominance fantasy.

EPA chief Lee Zeldin and DOE chief Chris Wright amplify anti-scientific twaddle in their attack on the very idea that a hotter planet might be bad for us.

Climate science deniers in the U.S. government who deny being deniers are reshaping energy policy in the most denier way possible.

Donald Trump is trying to effectively destroy NASA. Don't let him.

Plus: Social housing in Vienna helps fight climate chaos; survey finds Americans with solar installations nearby have no problem with, or are neutral about, adding more.

The administration labels power sector's 24% contribution to U.S. carbon emissions "insignificant" in their climate science-denying argument against regulating this pollution.
