60 yrs ago today (Nov 5, 1965), the 1st US government report to warn about climate change was published.
"Restoring the Quality of Our Environment" included warning of C02 build-up and sea-level rise/melting ice-caps.

The National Emergency Briefing highlighted the accelerating rate of global warming, with a real risk of reaching 4°C by the end of the century, a scenario that would lead to unprecedented societal and ecological collapse, escalating geopolitical instability, and a breakdown of the global economy.

OK so we can break manifesto pledges when it amounts to net zero, but we absolutely can't break them when it comes to necessary income tax rises? What is this government for anyway?

“The strategy is expected to confirm the government is relaxing a manifesto pledge to ban new oil and gas exploration licences in a form in which it can argue the new areas are extensions of existing infrastructure”

“Relax” = break. FFS.

Juries are not perfect.

Many of the worst miscarriages of justice have followed jury trials.

But the merit of juries is not so much the power they have, but the power they prevent others from having.

They mean a judge cannot just nod-along with prosecution evidence and give a guilty verdict.

As the year comes to an end, I'm reposting some of the comics I made this year, including this ridiculous thing.
A six-panel comic. In the first panel, a yellow warbler says "Hey so I'm going to go out on a limb here." In panels two through five, the warbler hops along a long branch against a blue sky with clouds. In panel 6, it stops at the end of the branch and sings.

This was 1972, btw You have to weep for this species (and all the others, obvs).

We knew, half a century ago, just how much trouble we were in.

We knew what needed to be done, and then ... crickets

(Okay, "we" is doing a lot of work in that, sure.)

There was an early effort (1988-92) to price carbon dioxide. It was a necessary but not sufficient response to the shit storm. It was lobbied out of existence across the world (I know some clown who did a PhD abt this, re: Australia).

"Meta shut down internal research into the mental health effects of Facebook after finding causal evidence that its products harmed users mental health, according to unredacted filings in a lawsuit by US school districts against Meta and other social media platforms." www.reuters.com/sustainabili...
In a 2020 research project code-named “Project Mercury,” Meta (META.O), opens new tab scientists worked with survey firm Nielsen to gauge the effect of “deactivating” Facebook, according to Meta documents obtained via discovery. To the company’s disappointment, “people who stopped using Facebook for a week reported lower feelings of depression, anxiety, loneliness and social comparison,” internal documents said. Rather than publishing those findings or pursuing additional research, the filing states, Meta called off further work and internally declared that the negative study findings were tainted by the “existing media narrative” around the company. Privately, however, a staffer insisted that the conclusions of the research were valid, according to the filing. “The Nielsen study does show causal impact on social comparison,” (unhappy face emoji), an unnamed staff researcher allegedly wrote. Another staffer worried that keeping quiet about negative findings would be akin to the tobacco industry “doing research and knowing cigs were bad and then keeping that info to themselves.” Despite Meta’s own work documenting a causal link between its products and negative mental health effects, the filing alleges, Meta told Congress that it had no ability to quantify whether its products were harmful to teenage girls.
