This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else.

Fire, Not Deforestation, Is Now the Amazon’s Biggest Carbon Emitter

In 2010 and 2015, the Amazon endured record-breaking droughts and heat. Again in 2024, records were topped and the fire season was the worst in 20 yrs, with fires emitting more carbon than deforestation.

Forest degradation in the Amazon increased by 400% in 2024. It was largely driven by wildfires during the forest’s worst fire season in more than 20 years.

See? Trump is what happens when people don’t care. They don’t care if he lies, cheats, steals, rapes, breaks the law, or makes a gazillion dollars while in office. They wouldn’t care if he’s a pedophile, or if he shot someone in the middle of NYC. He’s their retribution. Period. Right Megyn Kelly?

in light of the kimmel news, just a reminder that a few days ago a prominent fox news host literally called for killing homeless people. right afterward, someone shot up a couple homeless encampments.

that fox news host still has his job.

The EPA move follows news the administration wants to scrap the satellites that measure carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

If you can't measure it and don't know where it's coming from, it becomes very difficult to reduce or eliminate it (or hold anybody accountable for damages).

Trump has made America irrelevant again. Our former allies manage us rather than follow us, and enemies like Russia and China that Trump claims to influence openly laugh at our country. Republicans must be so proud that they are causing the destruction of our country.
