With a week to go in December's data, the planet is at about 1.40Β°C above the 1850-1900 IPCC pre-industrial baseline for December, and about 1.47Β°C above the baseline for all of 2025.

La Nina "cooling" is in full effect right now.

As you’re preparing for your Thanksgiving meal, remember the skilled work it took to get that food to your grocery store.

Tell us your favorite Thanksgiving dish, and we can share some of what we know about the work behind the ingredients.

We Ain’t Buying It! - Economic Pressure on Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday - We Ain’t Buying It! We Ain’t Buying It is an economic action and solidarity campaign designed to defend democracy and reclaim community power.

Now through Monday: economic boycott. No support for the companies that are funding the regime and supporting ICE.

1. This federal-Alberta pipeline MOU is even worse than I expected. Even before we get to the pipeline:
- exempts AB from net zero electricity reg (AB produces 44% of all electricity-related GHGs in Canada).
- delays methane reg by 5 years (75% redn by 2035 rather than 2030.
(cont'd)

While Trump’s goons are desperately trying to criminalize protests, there are ways to protest that don’t involve leaving your house.

Trump can’t make you shop.

Boycott Black Friday thru Cyber Monday.

November 28th-December 2

Don’t buy a damn thing besides necessities.

More than 80 countries at Cop30 join call for roadmap to fossil fuel phase-out Countries from Africa, Asia, Latin America, Pacific and Europe plead for transition to be central outcome of talks

Climate change is the most serious problem we face as a species, and ending fossil fuel use is necessary to solve it.

It's time for the world to come to agreement to end fossil fuels.

Remember - the wildfires, the droughts, floods, heatwaves happening across the world are within "safe" climate change (1.2Β°C warming). We are on course to double that.
