I'm a health professional who’s all in on using the science of science communication to fight climate change. My message: The end of fossil fuels will be a new beginning for health. #Resist
Air pollution—a major killer and cause of chronic illnesses—is once again on the rise in America.

By rejoining the global clean energy revolution (solar, wind & geothermal plus storage), we can make this scourge a thing of the past and make America healthy again.

EU defense spending is up 16%.

But a budget ignoring climate resilience is built on quicksand. Deterrence fails when troops are tied up in disaster relief.

Wed at @oenb.at, we debate the operational reality.

It isn't about emissions. It's about survival.
