This year's El Nino, or "little boy", looks like being a monster. Ocean temperatures are forecast to rise by 4C, the largest in at least 1000 years. Climate scientists warn of a string of weather catastrophes around the world and 450,000 excess deaths, while Australians are at greater risk of facing deadly heat, drought and bushfires than usual during this year's extreme weather season. While every effort must be made to keep fossil fuels in the ground and electrify Australia with cheap, clean energy, we must also prepare our communities. That means strengthening emergency responses, investing in infrastructure that builds climate resilience, and improving disaster preparedness. In a rapidly warming world, this is the reality we now face, and I will be pushing the Albanese Government to act with the urgency these dire warning demand throughout our extreme weather season. theguardian.com/environment/…

Love Freo but... there’s an added dimension to the standard pain Dockers fans carry. Since 2010, fossil fuel giant Woodside Energy has been the major sponsor of our beloved club. thepoint.com.au/opinions/260…

This is indeed Genius, and you MUST wait until the punchline. The interesting thing is how little even the MAGAts are pushing back. Feels like even they are tired and embarrassed.
LOL! Best Hitler-bunker-scene rendition so far! “You didn’t tell me these were the same Persians that defeated the Romans.” "Have Bari Weiss write why high oil prices are actually a good thing..."

The Norwegian Consumer Council made a video about enshittification and got 2.5M views and 168K likes on IG. (If the style feels familiar, it was created by NewsLab, the same advertising agency that made the brilliant Visit Oslo video from a few years back.)
