I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline.
“Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet.
Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming.
Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”
Katharine Hayhoe
Scientists have reached a consensus that human behavior is a big driver of climate change—but Americans aren't buying it.
For those who want to understand the science underlying the development of this incipient El Niño event, please follow Pedro DiNezio, a leading expert in this area (regrettably only available at the other place 🙁): x.com/mountain_gau...
What’s the back story behind your book cover? What were some of the alternate images that you considered?

BREAM: The Journal says percentage of delinquent credit card balances is 13%, the highest in 15 years. People are using them for necessities. Your message to them?
