All signs point to Trump’s second term creating a hotter and less affordable future for Americans.

Without new offshore turbines going up, millions of households across the Northeast will soon pay more money for dirtier and less reliable electricity.

How Trump dismantled a promising energy industry — and what America…
The demolition of the offshore wind sector in 2025 will reverberate for decades, resulting in lost jobs, higher utility bills, and less reliable power…

Yes I know that they aren’t - that’s something well studied in other fields so that’s why I was surprised to see this in pnas. What’s the problem with changing the estimand if heterogeneity is part of the question and important?

📣 Check it out! Explore the new data viz on our homepage: www.climatecentral.org

@climatecentral.org just released a new tool to explore climate impacts in U.S. cities and states - making complex data easier to understand for your community.

🚨 What’s the biggest Fall climate threat where you live?
Example of the new climate tool from Climate Central. This is showing climate change in Pennsylvania which is seeing annually a change in precipitation of 3.2 inches since 1970 and a warming of 3.2°F. Fall threats include heat, heavy rainfall, and sea level rise. This is associated with impacts like increased cooling demand, more extreme rainfall, and changes to fall foliage.

Upstream data need to prove soil carbon as a climate solution - Nature Climate Change
Causal approaches employed at the scale of commercial agriculture are required to build high-quality evidence that climate-smart agricultural interventions result in real emissions reductions and removals. Such project-scale empirical data are additionally required to demonstrate and advance the viability of process-based models and digital measurement, reporting and verification as tools to scale soil carbon accounting.
