Correcting misinformation fed to trump devotees is largely unproductive, but it has at least a potential to change minds - especially when done respectfully. So lately I've taken to trolling Fox news videos -- providing AI generated rebuttals.

Directing the DOJ to investigate Clinton is an impeachable violation:

Indeed. So job one is to inform the public so that they vote for adults who will represent the public interest. For national policies, the Fee and Dividend system proposed by Dr. Hansen makes the most sense to me:

Intriguing .... the reason(s) - anyone's guess ... It's worth noting that the findings are specific to colon cancer.

be careful what you celebrate and wish for dear #republicans

Throwing the public under the bus will be impossible to forget and forgive in the midterms.

A model for climate science?

In clinical research, advocates represent present and future patients. Over time our role expanded - we take part in the studies at every step: from concept to drug reviews. Unlike other stakeholders we cannot be accused of financial or career conflicts.

Either from ignorance of delayed response to climate forcing (Huh, what's that?) or reckless me-first endangerment ... parents are killing the future for their children, and climate scientists (sorry) haven't done enough (its not easy I know) to inform the public.

"Waiting to find out what price; You have to pay to get out of; Going through all these things twice."

I think Dr. Hansen has it right: it's going to take a political revolution to rid the government of special interest corruption. The dividend piece provides the opportunity to win support.

#pickleball can be played competitively or cooperatively. With the latter it's a form of meditation. It's an easy game to enjoy on the first try and with friends, family, kids, and grandparents - but mastery of it is another matter.

As a student of climate science, the policy change that provides the greatest prospect for a market-based *solution*; that aids instead of harming the victims further - was described by Dr. Hansen.

We need more adult populist candidates that respect science -- to make the case for the fee and dividend policy so that carbon is priced honestly, and wealth is transferred from polluters to the public with dividends.
