One of the problems with the move to single newsletters, besides the fact that the math doesn't really math in terms of people subscribing to eleventy newsletters, is that they don't have editors. And editors are usually a good thing.

The last time Greenland was green was 400,000 years ago, when sea level was between 6 and 12 meters higher than now.
Today, atmospheric CO2 is 1.5 times greater than it was back then.

we consider ourselves to be worlds apart from American Republicans but the Norwegian media habit of celebrating the impacts of fossil fuel use as beneficial to our lives is indistinguishable from the fascist accelerationist position over there

If you are a mentor for Native students, please keep in mind that some students are staying connected with their ways of life. Not all, bc forced assimilation has led to some Natives being removed from land and family, so not every Native needs time like this.

As someone who was born and raised in Alaska and who has family and friends who will be harmed by this ALL OVER THE FRICKING COUNTRY, I am so fricking pissed at Murkowski. And everyone else who voted for this horrendous bill, but especially her bc she was my rep

"I know that in many parts of the country, there are Americans that are not going to be advantaged by this bill"

From ice to inferno: Alaska issues historic heat advisory
The state is warming more than twice as fast as the global average.
