They took $25+ million from katzenberg (who’s a also a Liz Cheney fan lmao) and other dnc billionaires while pretending to be some edgy anti establishment org, when in reality they accepted a buyout in exchange for telling you voting/elections matter, which inherently props up the establishment they claim to be against . The same establishment that is destroying the biosphere on earth, endless militarism/spending, keeping healthcare private, privatizing education, etc. hasan even displays the hammer and sickle when he does all this . They’re loving scum

Shell's chief executive “praised the deal and highlighted its promise of new [oil and gas] lease sales to come.” Likewise, the head of ExxonMobil expressed approval: “We’re pleased with the broader recognition that a more comprehensive set of solutions are going to be needed to address the challenges of an energy transition.” (“Comprehensive set of solutions” meaning those that do not threaten fossil fuel industry profits.) “This is a bill that keeps the fossil fuel industry, and the country, in a very strong position,” Joe Manchin said. The Journal tells us that the new “climate bill” is in fact a “boon for the fossil fuel sector.”

Despite that the NYC metro area has gone tropical in summer and question mark in winter it still feels very much the best place to be in the US. Everything west of the, uh, midwest is in 22 year long megadrought with several dozen thousand-year fires per annum, the midwest is either perpetually flooded or above 105F for ? reasons, or windy!!!, and the southeast is a swamp rear end hell with worse politics than weather

escaping to latam is suicide, escaping to caribbean ditto, europe weather is much worse. I can't learn Icelandic or Danish cause wtf? Maybe try Nova Scotia in 4 years probably

Don't worry some black swan event will happen to make areas we are thinking are safe in future even more unsafe. Like someone dumping oil into the great lakes or something

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) — A Michigan regulatory panel said Thursday that it needs more information about safety risks before it can rule on Enbridge Energy’s plan to extend an oil pipeline through a tunnel beneath a waterway linking two of the Great Lakes.

The state Public Service Commission voted 3-0 to seek further details about the potential for explosions and fires involving electrical equipment during construction of the tunnel beneath the Straits of Mackinac.

The commission’s approval would be required for Enbridge to replace two existing Line 5 pipes in the straits, which connect Lake Huron and Lake Michigan, with a new segment that would run through the proposed underground tunnel.

“This has been an extensive process,” Chairman Dan Scripps said. “We want to make sure that we get it right.”

Enbridge and the state of Michigan are mired in legal battles over Line 5. The 69-year-old underground pipeline carries Canadian oil and natural gas liquids used for propane through northern Michigan and Wisconsin to refineries in Sarnia, Ontario.

SAULT STE. MARIE, MI – U.S. Coast Guard crews are responding to an oil spill in a river near the Soo Locks in the Upper Peninsula.

The 5,300-glallon spill originated from Algoma Steel in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario around 10:30 a.m. on Thursday. Oil was spilling into the St. Marys River, officials said.

The 74.5-mile river connects Lake Superior and Lake Huron and serves as a border between Michigan and Ontario, Canada.

quote:

The Line 6B pipeline near Marshall ruptured on July 25, 2010, sending 843,000 gallons of oil flowing into a creek leading to the Kalamazoo River, investigators later determined, marking the start of what would be classified among the largest inland oil spills in U.S. history.

Oil, flowing with the freshwater of the river, soon showed up on wildlife like the birds that make their home in the riverbed, and settled into pockets on the floor of the river. Oil traveled 39 miles downstream to Morrow Dam, where it was contained, east of Kalamazoo.

The ensuing cleanup lasted several years and cost more than a billion dollars.
