Whenever I start searching for climate news, I am overwhelmed by the amount of heavily-funded fossil fuel propaganda -- accounts with tens of thousands following them. I don't include that disinformation because it's too disheartening, but I want you to know it's there.

The strongest storm in over a decade is moving into the Bering Sea. Impacts may exceed the 2011 Bering Sea Superstorm, and some locations may experience their worst coastal flooding in nearly 50 years. Peak water levels will persist for 10 to 14 hours before water recedes. #akwx pic.twitter.com/l1Ik4iXYBG

Wildfire plumes in the western U.S. are reaching greater heights than ever, a recent study reports — especially in California’s Sierra Nevada. That means smoke, carrying a hodgepodge of chemical compounds, impacts more people. https://t.co/1TgyFXkaHE

Holy shit — in today’s Oversight hearing on fossil fuel misinformation, @AOC submitted HEATED’s joint investigation with @EARTH3R on Big Oil advertising in political newsletters to show how oil companies buy influence over climate policy.

It’s really over this time. Yes the Thwaites glacier, aka the “Doomsday” Glacier, “could melt faster than previously thought”, says NBC. This time it’s melting more slowly than before, but it’s also “Hanging on ‘By Its Fingernails,’ Scientists Say” https://t.co/dRpBRJWLvO

New documents obtained by my committee @OversightDems show Big Oil executives ridiculing youth activists who are fighting for climate action and even wishing that kids from @sunrisemvmt get bed bugs. It's just appalling. pic.twitter.com/ihCgBLYEiG

Pakistan produces less than 1% of global greenhouse gas emissions, but it is the eighth most vulnerable country of the climate crisis. Do rich nations owe reparations to those facing climate disaster? pic.twitter.com/HnkT693iUX
