I look at what that could mean for other climate rules, state action, and the future of U.S. climate policy.

He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

We cover an issue that is vitally important to humanity and the natural world. 14 of my climate colleagues at the Post were laid off today and I'm devastated. www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/washington...

- Reposted by Vivek SrikrishnanProfessional athletes are being advised not to leave the hotel or go anywhere without their passports while visiting Minnesota. This is not a country that can safely host international events like the World Cup. Boycotting is not even a political question anymore. It is a basic issue of safety.

- Reposted by Vivek Srikrishnan*ax grinding sounds continue* Reproducibility is a bare minimum criterion. Reproducible studies can still be wrong. And correct studies can lack enough justification of method to justify our belief or deserve our attention
- Reposted by Vivek SrikrishnanWow this scoring chaos seems to be an extreme case of what I say about many ad hoc analyses: no derivation of method from a clear scientific theory, no assessment of statistical properties, and decades pass before someone notices. This happens in biology too, so let’s not pick on psychology only

- Reposted by Vivek SrikrishnanA 60% jump in EU LNG imports from the U.S. in 2025 managed to drive up greenhouse gas emissions on both sides of the Atlantic - in the EU from the burning of the gas, and in the U.S. by prompting a shift to coal-fired generation as prices rose.
- Reposted by Vivek SrikrishnanKudos to @andrewdessler.com and the 83 scientists who joined us in critiquing DOE’s July climate report: it turns out that, with the weakness of that report exposed, OIRA staff concerned that maybe the science does show that climate change harms health and welfare archive.ph/d8xEG

- Reposted by Vivek Srikrishnanterrific new Ben Taub piece — it cracks a long-cold case of infanticide; it's a bombshell for maternal health, child protection & opiate toxicology protocols; it exposes the Lancet’s scandalous indifference to validity of what it publishes — it should make noise www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
- Reposted by Vivek SrikrishnanThe Times reports on legislation to take on the Trump admin and ICE, including my bill to put liens on federal property if Trump illegally withholds funds from us. I’ve also sponsored the New York versions of many of the proposals in the piece. Here are a few of them: 🧵(1/8)

- Reposted by Vivek SrikrishnanThe fossil fuel industry keeps saying India is an LNG growth market. I keep saying it isn't. Now the Indian LNG companies are agreeing with me. "Liquefied natural gas prices will need to drop markedly to spur more Indian demand, according to the nation’s biggest importer of the fuel."

- Reposted by Vivek SrikrishnanIt’s common and sort of understandable to see Miller as this evil genius. Important to remember he’s actually a complete fucking moron who, when he got a chance, immediately engineered a PR disaster that shitcanned Trump’s best-polling issue. Always the way with these types.

- Reposted by Vivek SrikrishnanAfter 17 years, I left the EPA yesterday. I'm sad to leave my "unicorn job", but this admin won't let me work on climate change. I'll be posting at thesaraphreport.substack.com First up: the Endangerment Finding. I helped write it. I defended it. Now I'm watching them tear it down.
- Reposted by Vivek SrikrishnanBTW when I say abolish ICE, I mean abolish it entirely and replace it with exactly nothing. Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. That's it.

- Reposted by Vivek SrikrishnanReminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.
- Reposted by Vivek SrikrishnanThe official policy of the government of the United States of America is that they will murder anyone they want, that they will tell any lie necessary to justify that murder, and that no one who resists them has any rights they are bound to respect. /1
