Legal and whistleblower experts say the Department of Homeland Security violated federal law when it put more than 30 Federal Emergency Management Agency employees on leave last week after they signed an open letter of dissent about agency leadership. In a new letter obtained by The Washington Post, the Government Accountability Project is calling on federal lawmakers and oversight agencies to investigate what it calls “illegal retaliation.” The post The Washington Post: Trump administrat...| Government Accountability Project
By Vijay Jayaraj For 20 years, an alliance of partisan ideologues hungry for power and the profits of lobbying and grifting, along with crisis-obsessed media and certain academic elites, dictated what many politicians would back, what faculty would publish and what journalists dared to report about climate change. Activists leveraged the narrative of a false planetary emergency to demand energy … Read more The post Courage at EPA, DOE Can Make Climate Research Great Again appeared first on ...| CO2 Coalition
By Vijay Jayaraj When researchers abandon empirical observation in favor of predetermined conclusions, science transforms into propaganda – something far more dangerous than the simple ignorance perpetuated. In climate sciences, funding agencies and international political bodies have dictated outcomes while authentic scientists faced systematic marginalization for questioning the prevailing narrative. The issue of climate change generates fierce debate among scientists, … Read more The p...| CO2 Coalition

The Paris Agreement, adopted by 195 countries in 2015, represents the world’s collective approach to tackling climate change. Under the agreement, nations submit targets to cut climate pollution – described as Nationally Determined Contributions. Together, these targets chart a global pathway to slash climate pollution and prevent global temperatures from exceeding agreed limits. Under the […] The post What is the Paris Agreement and why does Australia need to set a Nationally Determine...| Climate Council
For at least 30 years, since the publication of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s ‘First Assessment Report’ in 1990, scientists have issued progressively more urgent calls to tackle the escalating climate crisis, driven by the burning of coal, oil and gas. The Albanese Labor Government’s imminent decision on Australia’s 2035 climate target will shape […] The post Why Australia needs to set a strong climate target this year appeared first on Climate Council.| Climate Council
This week the International Court of Justice delivered a strong advisory opinion that States have a clear legal obligation to cut emissions, prevent harm to the climate system and in some cases, pay for historical damages caused by their emissions. What does this mean for those of us on the frontlines of climate impacts? This […] The post An international court ruling, proof that the world can follow the Pacific’s lead on climate action appeared first on Climate Council.| Climate Council
