USA EPA plans to ignore science, stop regulating greenhouse gases

"Largest deregulatory action" in the history of US would be one of the unhealthiest.

https://arstechnica.com/science/2025/07/epa-plans-to-ignore-science-stop-regulating-greenhouse-gases/

The USA keeps harming the health of its citizens, increasing the costs people must pay for healthcare and increasing costs (such as high homeowners insurance costs) due to #climate_change (caused by human actions, such as this extremely foolish policy).

Defense Department will stop providing crucial satellite weather data
"The U.S. Department of Defense will no longer provide satellite weather data, leaving hurricane forecasters without crucial information about storms as peak hurricane season looms in the Atlantic... The Defense Department satellites were also the main source of real-time information about changes to sea ice."

Political cowardice hindering Europe’s climate efforts, says EU’s green chief (The Guardian)

Effects of crisis are becoming increasingly obvious but not translating into proper action.

Political cowardice is hindering European efforts to face up to the effects of the climate crisis, even as the continent is pummelled by a record-breaking heatwave.

The BBC is utterly beholden to the right. Why else would it fear an Evan Davis podcast about heat pumps? (The Guardian)

The broadcaster behaves like Starmer’s government: suppress the left, cave to your critics, and undermine your own survival.

Why? The answer is simple: economic power.

A silent majority of the world’s people wants stronger climate action. It’s time to wake up. (The Guardian)

About 89% of the public want their governments to do more to tackle the climate crisis – but don’t know they’re the majority.

We believe the current mismatch between public will and government action amounts to a deficit in democracy.
