Global warming has accelerated.
That simple, straightforward statement — easily confirmed with an unbiased look at the data — draws strong reactions and even condemnation in corporate media from representatives of the mainstream scientific establishment.
Billionaire CEOs of major multinational corporations and the politicians they own are fully invested in the continuation of neoliberal capitalism, in forging ahead with Business As Usual.
They don’t want anything to upset that. So they will make sure that the news you see backs up their contention that everything is fine.
But everything is not fine.

#Analysis: Clean #energy just put #China’s #CO2 #emissions into reverse for first time

The analysis, based on official figures and commercial data, shows that China’s CO2 emissions have now been stable, or falling, for more than a year.

Analysis: Clean energy just put China’s CO2 emissions into reverse for first time - Carbon Brief
For the first time, the growth in China’s clean power generation has caused the nation’s carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to fall despite rapid power demand growth.Lauri Myllyvirta (Carbon Brief)
Longer working hours have been linked to higher emissions, yet the climate movement seems reluctant to join the campaign for a four-day week—a potential strategic error given the social, health and climate benefits of working less.

Working less is the most underrated climate solution
Fewer work hours can lower emissions. So why isn’t the climate movement fighting for our collective right to relax?Jack McGovan (Sower)

Raging conflicts, disasters and climate change are responsible for the displacement of tens of millions of people, with #Gaza and #Sudan hit the hardest. The lack of progress toward reining in global displacement marks 'a #policy #failure and a #moral stain on humanity.'

The curse of creeping deterioration.
Imagine if your candidate for mayor came up with the plan of turning a green, cool, climate-resilient city centre with good air quality into a gigantic, hot, stinking car park within a very short space of time. Promising to significantly raise the number of traffic fatalities and environmental death rates among the old and the poor and worsen the living conditions for all inhabitants.

#Trump fires head of #FEMA right before #hurricane season
Cameron Hamilton, the acting head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, was pushed out of the job on Thurs, acc/to several people familiar w/his departure. His ouster came 1 day after he told members of #Congress that FEMA — which Trump has suggested should be disbanded — was vital to communities “in their greatest times of need” & should not be eliminated.

Capitalism is not an ‘economic system’. Capitalism is legalized crime. It is an extortion racket, set up to steal from the poor and give to the rich. It’s a centuries-long con game, and it’s working better now than it ever has.
You can read about this, learn the history. The information is out there in the open, available to anyone. But capitalism’s propaganda machine has been so successful — and the institutions they’ve built to provide a facade of legitimacy are so entrenched — that it’s hard for most people to see what’s really going on.

We were too cautious. It's happening faster than we anticipated and the impacts are going to be worse.
