Media summarize Hochulโ€™s attack on the climate law as a โ€œclashโ€ between โ€œaffordabilityโ€ and โ€œclimate goalsโ€. But thatโ€™s not true! Solar is the cheapest energy. Hochulโ€™s the one whoโ€™d raise utility bills. Itโ€™s *actually* a clash between the publicโ€™s interest and the gas lobby.

Public service announcement: this is a FOSSIL FUEL CRISIS

Not an 'energy crisis'. People need energy: it keeps them alive. This is a crisis due to forced dependency on the most unreliable and unstable fuel product in human history.

THIS IS A FOSSIL FUEL CRISIS.

Hitting desalination plants is so bad. Not just evil but strategically incomprehensible. Without desalination 75% of the entire population of the Middle East will be refugees. Israel and Kuwait depend on desalination for 90% of their water and other Middle East states arenโ€™t far behind.

It's also worth pointing out that fossil fuel dependency is the ultimate cause for why the United States is lighting up the Middle East. Again. 9/11

Some of the key science was done by the oil and gas companies themselves. This means the actual solution โ€“ fossil fuel phase out - which has been staring us in the face all this time, still represents the surest route to safety. 8/11

It looks like the war on Iran is going about as poorly as the regimeโ€™s previous wars against Chicago, Minnesota and Los Angeles.

ICE attracts the worst of the worst. There is no reform sweeping enough to fix it. There is only abolition and prosecution.

How broadcast TV networks covered climate change in 2025 Corporate broadcast networks again reduced climate coverage in 2025, marking the third year coverage has declined since the networks' high-water mark of 23 hours of reporting in 2022. A Media Matters ...

In 2025, broadcast TV climate coverage plummeted for the 3rd year in a row.

2022: 23 hours
2023: 17 hours - ๐Ÿ“‰25%
2024: 12 hours, 51 minutes - ๐Ÿ“‰25%
2025: 8 hours, 25 minutes - ๐Ÿ“‰35%

But hey, it's not like 2023, 2024, & 2025 were the 3 hottest years in recorded history by a lot. Nothing to see here!

Price of Crude Oil WTI (USD/Bbl) over a five-year period, spanning from 2021 to early 2026. The chart shows a significant price peak in 2022 reaching over $120, followed by a general downward trend with various fluctuations, eventually hitting a low near $55 in late 2025 before a sharp vertical spike to the current price of 90.900. This recent surge represents an increase of +23.880 (+35.63%), highlighted in green text above the blue line graph.

The real insanity isnโ€™t how much oil prices have spiked, itโ€™s that weโ€™re still burning oil for energy.

They're going to write books about all the big brain moves of this gang of imbeciles and among them will be "Spending a year trying to kill renewable energy and then launching a war that sends oil prices soaring"

Abominable reporting from NYT on this in their โ€œlive updatesโ€ on Iran.

โ€œstill investigating whether it was a U.S. airstrikeโ€

โ€œmost of whom were likely childrenโ€

Noncommittal, uninformative, and vile. There was already a funeral for the GIRLS MURDERED IN THIS STRIKE, and the NYT is just NYT-ing

BYD just killed your EV argument with a battery that competes with gas engines The Chinese carmaker's new batteries feature a 5-minute charge and 621-mile range, plus a 620,000-mile lifetime and lower prices.

Good thing Trump keeps Chinese cars out of the country, otherwise we would be able to buy better cars at lower prices www.fastcompany.com/91503415/byd... As Trump always says, "why pay less?"

Keeping ICE in existence and โ€œreformingโ€ it is an extremist position that does not enjoy the support of the people.

The choice is stark. Reform are the party of foreign wars and high bills.

The Greens want de-escalation and energy security through renewables. Solar and wind prices don't fluctuate when rogue US presidents launch illegal bombing campaigns.

The public and commentators need to stop thinking about "wars for oil" as about securing oil for the U.S., it's been decades since that was a motivator. "Wars for oil" are instead about securing oil for oil companies, securing a fossil fueled global economy, and denying oil's wealth to "enemies."

Todayโ€™s military strikes on Iran โ€” carried out by the United States and Israel โ€” mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.
