As we head into peak Atlantic hurricane season, Yale Climate Connections won’t shy away from straightforwardly explaining how climate change is making these storms more dangerous. At a time when many news outlets are laying off their climate reporters, we’re more determined than ever to keep telling
New paper @pnas.org "Inoculation Against Climate Doom"-we show in a social media simulator that cognitive inoculation improves discernment of doom stories across the political aisle & shifts behavior, incl less sharing of doom. Doom also predicts less climate action. 👉 www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
Insane new research. Scientists gave asthma patients free electric stoves to replace their gas stoves, then checked to see if symptoms improved. Not only did symptoms improve, ditching gas was *better than medicine.* Details in today's newsletter: www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/electric-s...
@francescahongwi.bsky.social is talking about defense conversion in Oshkosh factories, ending 287(g)s and disallowing cooperation with the JTTF in Wisconsin. I have never remotely heard a candidate talk this way — this concretely, this creatively, this aggressively— about uprooting militarism.

Sharing to simply state: I will NEVER vote for a candidate with anti-trans and/or anti-queer platforms. Never. Doesn’t matter who the opponent is. And a party that embraces candidates like that won’t get another dime from me. So you know, powers that be, make your decisions wisely…
Julia Seranoin the wake of Amy Acton's anti-trans turn in Ohio, I will re-up this @bostonreview.bsky.social essay where I make the case that abandoning trans rights is BAD POLITICS for Dems, as it will turn away their own pro-LGBTQ base w/o winning over a single new voter... www.bostonreview.net/forum/how-no...
